Loneliness Support Group
Loneliness is an emotional state in which a person experiences a powerful feeling of emptiness and isolation. Loneliness is more than the feeling of wanting company or wanting to do something with another person. Loneliness is a feeling of being cut off, disconnected and alienated from other people. The lonely person may find it difficult or even impossible to have any...

I don't know if this is the right forum to post this, but I'm having money problems. I have a little money. I can spend $10 a day for three weeks. But this means no real grocery shopping trips. And not much gas. I could take the bus but round trip it costs $3 to get to school and I could put that in my tank and make it there and back and then some. I just feel exasperated about this. I feel like I have no one to talk to about my money woes. I borrowed $100 from my cousin and now I have to pay her back but I really want an extension on the loan, but I don't know if that is a good idea. maybe better to honor the relationship and just feel bad about not having more for awhile. I wish i could find a paying freelance job while I'm in school or something. I applied to be a seasonal waitress at an events coliseum but never heard back about it. Guess I will keep on looking. But I feel really down about looking. I have tons of volunteer work but no one is willing to pay me for it. It sucks! I like Daily Strength because I can just say what I think and not have some stupid therapist telling me otherwise. I'm exapserated with therapists too. Ahhhh! Write me back if you want!

I worked in retail when I was in school. They were very flexible with my schedule. Or maybe talk to a counselor at school- they can be a really great resource for finding work. Just a thought- hope you find something soon. I know what it's like to struggle with money and finding work. Good luck!

I seem to have that same problem. Money grows on trees when you need help or thats what everyone wants you to believe. When not eating ends you up in the hospital think of who is paying the bill when you dont.

So 10 a day for gas plus food. How about you hit the grocery store and eat cheap? Like Dave Ramsey says, beans and rice, rice and beans. And how about apply for every job you can find? Are there jobs at school? I assume you mean college(?) How about near school? Holidays coming up so dept stores will be hiring seasonal. If you are looking for waitress position, then apply at every restaurant near school or near your home. I know its rough but the only way out is to work your way out. I wish I had easier answers. Good luck to you.
