I usually keep my struggles private, but I've reached a point where staying silent isn't an option anymore.

My family and I are facing the heartbreaking reality of losing our apartment at the end of this month (January). We’ve already lost our means of transportation, and the past two years have been filled with relentless challenges. In 2022, we saw two of our businesses fail, and I've been grappling with debilitating depression, lack of healthcare, and undiagnosed AuDHD without access to necessary medications. Despite numerous attempts, I have struggled to secure even one job that meets my needs and provides a supportive environment for my autism.

With the exorbitant cost of living in the DMV area, our only viable option seems to be leasing a Camper RV until we can discover a more stable solution. This is far from what I envision for my family! Many RV parks are located far from public transportation, and given that we no longer own a car, this presents a significant hurdle. I’m open to exploring any other resources but haven’t found viable alternatives so far.

While I understand that $5000 isn't a fix for our situation, the urgency is real. I’m not just seeking a handout; I genuinely need work and resources! However, it’s particularly challenging for me to cope in an overstimulating work environment. If you can offer any assistance—financial help or resources—I would be incredibly grateful for any support you can share. Thank you for taking the time to read my situation.
