survival fnd
been putting this off once again cause honestly these posts are so stressful to make but its also stressful not having $$$ so…
since last May (2022), i have been struggling with long covid. the situation has been up and down. originally, i was approved for short term medical leave and was getting payments, but when i transitioned into long term I was denied payments based on a lot of bs from the company–claiming i wasn’t disabled enough, siting a lack of testing, twisting it to make it seem like my dr didnt support my leave when she does–and i am still fighting to get that changed (at this point this company owes me like $10k)
i was recently able to get some assistance from the state–EBT and a small benefit of $401/month. however, that doesnt come close to covering bills or helping me feed my cat and take her to the vet (she’s a senior and its been a while since her last appointment). i am currently behind on rent, electric, and because of some stupid shit with my leave of absence from work my insurance isn’t being billed to me and that bill is now accumulating.
currently waiting to hear back from a possible job opportunity, but jobs have been hard to find with my health and im anxious that if this one doesnt pan out i wont be able to make it through this month
at the moment im setting a high goal to cover for the next two months–cat food/vet, electric (currently $134.27 image attached for proof), insurance ($145/month, covering 3 months–May, June, and July), and the remainder of rent the benefits don’t cover (my rent is $850, so $850 for 2 months minus $401x2) with a lil extra padding for emergencies and other needs like possibly needing to take a lyft to any potential job interviews, buying a cane, buying professional clothes for work, etc
any help is greatly appreciated. reblogs are really helpful. i know we all strugglin i know this is a big ask but if you can help i appreciate it
