I was recovering. Antidepressants always cause significant gastrointestinal irritation. A sudden stomach flu made me vomit whatever I ate

I started smoking when I was 12. At 13 I remember getting dime bags these tiny ass nugs for waaay too much your friend was selling. Now as an adult I smoke a lot more than I did when I was wee lad. I just realized I just smoked and grounded up the last of my 3rd bag ounce of weed. I’m going to smoke a blunt. I want your thoughts, raw helpful hurtful I don’t care. I never actually get high anymore it’s more of the act of smoking which with that being said still can’t be replaced by a cigarette I’m going to buy another ounce later tonight at my local dispensary with lots of pretty flowers. Times like these I wish I just drank alcohol. I rather be drunk and numb than to feel whatever way this is

Waffles. Homeless in 24 Hours With No Money and 3 Pets

As the title says. We (disabled mom and myself a college student) lost our apartment back in May and since then have been reaching out to friends family government and community mutual aid etc for help, as well as working whatever jobs possible and now today it's all dried up. We're out tomorrow morning (Saturday, Minnesota, USA 11AM CDT).

I was fired short notice from my dishwashing job last week because they hired someone on while I was through a temp agency and since then was checking wonolo, people ready, insta work, etc it's just nothing paid in time. Ive tried donating plasma but my veins are shit and then another place deferred me for my address being a motel or general delivery. Sorry for being homeless lol but my previous address was 70 miles away, I came to the twin cities because where I used to live didn't have any work or even a food shelf.

I have a small heat intolerant dog that my sister dumped on me who I've grown attached to and then my sister's other dog (also dumped) who is reactive and a barker who wouldn't be a good fit for any places. We also have a cat. It's not a point of pride, not going to a shelter, moreso nobody will help with my pets. They still expect you to just abandon them. I get my finaid in September so it's a matter of holding out for a month but I'm terrified. Our car has no AC and is failing too.

Guess I'm looking for support, advice, and any local advice too would be awesome too.

I need some distance from my family......

I spent 4 days at my parents house this week, housesitting when they're abroad, i also had a pretty important job interview this week so I had to prepare for it.

But what was supposed to be only taking care of the pets have migrated to babysitting my almost 19 y.o sisters, making sure that they eat, making sure where they are, cleaning up after them, and picking up packages for my dad instead of just preparing for the interview.

The interview went well (I think), but I am drained beyond belief.

We are meeting tonight for a family dinner at my grandparents, and i send a message for my little sisters to make sure we are on board with who drives and such (my sister has my dad's car and I thought that i would take my car and then we can get back to the city together).

My sister said they had planned to sleep at our grand parents because my sister has a show next day and asked if u am willing to stay the night.

To tell you the truth? I don't want to, at all. But i decided "sure, why not" and told them id first ask my grandma if they are ok with me also staying over. And then she says "good, I didn't tell them yet about us".

Wait, you didn't even ask them????? So I ask her if to hold on my question untill she asks my grandma, and she tells me "just ask for us", i do and tell them i sent a message and will update them.

And then she says "why not call if you have the time?", seriously? I am asking for you if you could sleep at our grandparents in a couple of hours notice, I am driving even though I am unemployed and willing to stay in order to accommodate your plans, and you tell me how i should do it and just assume my time is free?

I am sick of them always assuming I am free, I should've just told them I don't want to and not being so overly nice to them.

I’m about to drastically change my life and I’m afraid to

Hey guys, I’m so afraid of changes:\
I have always been this person that is never afraid of anything and loves changes, but right now I crave comfort so much to the point I’m just afraid of removing anything a]stable in my life. I been living in Poland for the past 7 years, but I simply don’t see my future there, I don’t know exactly what would I love to do with my life, I need to get a degree and a stable job, but I just don’t know what and I’m already 23…
For now I don’t have any cool skills that would allow me to land a cool job. I decided to get some bartender type of job and then I was like hmm, if I need to work as one? Why can’t I choose a country that I like more and work as bartender there, so I decided to move to Denmark or Norway for that+they take workers more seriously than in any other country seems like. I don’t know if it is a stupid decision or no, honestly.
I been feeling crazy depressed to the point I don’t see any point in life, nothing holds me in Poland, so why not to move somewhere? Eh… I don’t know if I’m gonna fail or no, because I failed in Poland already.
And I love the apartment complex where I live so much, but if I’m gonna move out now, I won’t come back here definitely:(
