My housing agency

Hi there @Arizona,

You're explaining yourself very well. I can see you're feeling stuck with the housing issue. Sorry to hear nothing is helping right now. It definitely sounds very stressful and impactful so I don't blame you for feeling so overwhelmed. I'm glad you got in touch with your therapist.

What can you do to look after yourself this evening? Sounds like a glass of water or a bite to eat might be a good first step.

If you need to talk to someone you can ring our Help Centre on 1800 18 7263 (10am-10pm).

Here with you,

Sphinxly

That does not sound like a good day at all, rather than explaining all thats going on, would it be quicker just outline what help it is you are looking for? Maybe someone here might just have a suggestion that will make you feel a little better.

Are you safe and is your little puggie wuggie okay?

Hello @Gwynn @AussieRecharger @Former-Member

Thank you for your replies.

I'm not sure if I should talk about what happened with my housing agency. I'm worried that it will upset me.

Maybe I need to go to PARC. The only problem is my car has broken down and I will have to get public transport. Maybe I can hire a car and drop it off there. And my Pug will have to stay with someone.

How sad that the only place I can go to for respite is PARC.

I have sent an email to the family who usually takes care of my Pug. And I will call the psychiatric service tomorrow and talk to them about going to PARC.

I have just heard back from my therapist. She's going to call me tomorrow.

Hey honey, hope you get some definite answers and peace of mind xxoo.

You must feel so distraught over your housing security which anyone would.

Its sad when agencies who are meant to help instead exert structural and systemmic violence over people who are barely coping and are just doing their best.

Keep manifesting a positive outcome! I would be balancing my root chakra so you have solid footing and stability.

You will feel like you are more secure. I notice when I go into public malls I get swept away by the toxic energy but when I balance my root or survival chakra I can face life with courage.

Much love to you @Arizona

So sorry about your great distress 😥 @Arizona

Wishing for the support you need and a good outcome with the housing agency.

Trigger warning. Please don't read if you are very depressed.

I'm having suicidal thoughts now. I won't go through with it because I have my Pug and I'm afraid of pain and death. I wish I could be vengeful instead of suicidal and use this situation to turn my life around. But I can't. I have zero energy and I have given up.

My therapist was supposed to call me at 3pm but she probably won't call me. She usually forgets.

I can't see my life improving and I don't want to live like this any more. I'm 50 and my life has been very bad for a long time.

I can hear that you're having a very difficult time right now @Arizona. I'm so sorry you're struggling so much, i've been there and its very difficult.

Maybe you can spend some time with your pug before your therapist is due to call? I find connecting with pets so calming and grounding.

I have sent an email to check in with you so keep an eye out for that as well.

Take care, CalmingNature
