Urgent Help for Eric Hoover's Recovery
Donation protected
My name is Eric Hoover, and I'm not even sure how to do this. I recently lost my job in February due to catching what I believe was the flu at first, but then I think it turned into pneumonia because I had a fever for almost 3 weeks. I went in when I could; my managers made comments every day about how I looked, but I would leave at the earliest opportunity because of how awful I felt. One of the managers was going to take 2 days off my schedule so that I wouldn't go under in time, but he didn't do it soon enough, and it went to corporate, leading to them letting me go. My phone was turned off the day after being fired because I was expecting to still be working and be able to take money out to pay it. Amazon does everything by a specific policy, and I wasn't able to put an appeal in, in time to fight it. After multiple phone calls and being jerked around, it just turns out they won't do anything, and the managers on site don't have control over that. I've been searching for a job but don't have a vehicle and haven't heard back from any place that's close to me. My roommate has been handling the bills, but ultimately, if I can't get something together, I will have nowhere to stay come April. I'm not good at asking for help, obviously, because April is like a week away, and I'm just now trying.
I've been really depressed over this whole situation because it just feels like I've been on a downhill slope the past 2 years. I'm not on drugs, don't even smoke weed anymore unless it's offered (which it rarely is because I haven't gone out and don't really talk to anyone). I don't know what to do, but honestly, I just think I've given up. This is kind of a last-ditch effort to keep me going. I've been so down mentally lately to the point that I'm actually scared. I've been constantly harassed by an ex, ever since we broke up, who constantly gets on Facebook to talk down about me to anyone who will listen. Including people I thought of as friends. So I just stopped getting on, lost touch with a lot of people, and my anxiety keeps me from reaching out. I'm not trying to be ugly, I'm honestly just trying to make sense of my current state as I write this. Anyway...
I owe money to my roommate for this month and the coming month, my Cash App is like 400 in the negative, and my credit card is 300. Obviously, the credit card isn't the biggest concern, but just saying to be transparent.
I really don't feel comfortable asking for help, but if anyone can, it'd mean a lot. I'm sorry. I will do my best to pay anyone back that helps once I'm more stable, if that happens
