PTSD Couple Surviving Homelesness With Svc Dog
Donation protected
My name is Jacob Ruhl. I have been sleeping in my car and rundown motels with my girlfriend and my service dog for going on two months in Massachusetts. Loss of job and support caused me to lose my previous source of shelter. I deliver food for doordash because I can't maintain a regular 9-5 because of my PTSD diagnosis. I can't find anywhere to live because of bad credit, dog, not enough to cover first and last, verifiable income, and a background check. I can't get into a shelter because of the dog. I can't make enough money to live because I was forced to relocate to an impoverished area to stay in a cheap motel which I can't even afford. I turned my life around ten years ago and this is the hardest thing I've ever been through. I'm reaching out to the universe and hope it answers. Foodstamps got cut off because I don't have to pay rent. Even thought about living in an RV but that's too expensive. I really am trying to raise money to help stay above water while I try to navigate this impossible journey and to help secure housing. I'm scared. I'm breaking more everyday and I want to do great. I'm in therapy. It's really rough and I'm just looking for a sign and anything is appreciated. Thank you
