Worries Tags

Hi, I wonder if my previous posts have been just too long for others to read. My car has failed me again today, this time the air conditioner has stopped working :(. It was only a few weeks ago that I had to replace the battery, before that the tyres and before that the exhaust fell out of the engine and had to be welded back on. I am at a loss for what to do. I live in the Northern Territory of Australia and humidity peaks about 70% most days. It is extremely hot and humid. I am by myself with 3 kids, the youngest is just 1. He was wet all over when I took him out his car seat earlier. I am so sad and I don't know what else to do :(. Honestly we fell on hard times a year ago when my marriage broke down. I wish so much that I had more money to repair the car. It worries me a lot as it seems to be one thing after another :(. Along with the shocks and A/C that now needs replacing all the other expenses have cost in the hundreds. If you are reading my plea right now please find it in your heart to give me a helping hand. I will be forever grateful for anything, honestly.

Thank you & may God's blessings rain upon you.

I am a new mom of a wonderful 5 month old girl. Like many new parents all I want is to be sure my daughter grows up in a happy, healthy and loving family. I come from a very low income family who struggles to pay our bills every month and worries about our child financial well being. What I am looking for is a person who is well off enough to help me start my business of growing gourmet mushrooms.I have years of experience in gardening and have cultivated shiitake mushrooms for friends before and I know if I only had the money to do so I can be successful in supplying our community with gourmet mushrooms. I would like to be able to support my family and daughter without government assistance and save for her future. I have always had a strong desire and passion to help support local grown food. Coming from a culinary background I know the importance and impact that local sustainable food can have on a local economy. My plan is to start growing shiitake and oyster mushrooms to supply local restaurants and to sell at farmers markets.I already have the structure suitable for growing oyster mushrooms all I need is the money for a growers licence and supplies approximately 2000$. If you are interested in helping me get started in my endeavors or have any questions for me please feel free to send them to bessiedawning@yahoo.com. Thank you for your consideration.

Hey guys,
I know that by the title, I might sound like a stereotypical student who wastes a ton of money on alcohol and didn't save anything up ready for this problem. I worked all summer in preparation for uni and managed to save a fair amount which I have been using to live on for the past few months. As that money is nearly gone, I have found rather a big issue when looking for a house for next year.

After I was given my loan from Student Finance, I found that most of that money paid off my accommodation for this year with only a very little towards my actual food and living money. My mum is a single parent since my dad died when I was 11 (Nope, I'm not going for the sympathy vote, no worries, just want you to know the full picture!) and she can barely send me money as it is and I don't like to ask her as she has to support my brother already.
I've now found out I need to put down a £360 deposit on a house that I do not have and do not know how I will get it. The money needs to be paid in May and whilst I have sent out a ton of CVs, there seems to be nothing. I'd do anything for a job but as I cannot find one and I do not want to ask my mum for even more money, I'd love it if you could donate, even just a little bit, so I do not end up homeless come September. I know it's a lot of money to ask for but anything would honestly help me out and I would thank you for every single penny.
Hope you can help :) Hana

Hi everyone, I havn't got a massive sad story to tell you really. I just really need help and I'm running out of places to turn. I split with my ex husband 2 years ago which has left me with such financial difficulty it is starting to make me ill with worry. My family have been brill and have helped me out where they can but I cant bring myself to ask anymore and my debts are swimming around unpaid and i cant help but think about them everyday. I live back at home with my parents, i just want my name taken off my old mortgage but cant afford to do it, I cant even afford to file for divorce. I am constantly putting off paying bills and stupidly got into a mess with my car insurance which involved me getting pulled over by the police and having a hefty police fine, which i am struggling to pay. I have a full time job and 2 part time jobs too but nothing seems to be helping and i feel like i'm losing the plot and drowning in money worries. I understand everyone has there problems and I'm not asking for much off everyone and I've never done this before so I'm not even sure if it works. But I am a genuine nice person who is just wanting a bit of a break to get myself back on track and I would appreciate any pennies or dollars immensely. Thanks so much xxx

Please please please help.
My wife and I are expecting our second child in June, and last month were both made redundant from our public sector jobs.
Christmas which is meant to be a joyful time was nothing full of worries for both of us. The more my wife gets upset the more desperate I am, as I know the stress is no good for my wife or our unborn child. We have enough saved up for another two months but then nothing.
Please donate as much as you can and keep your fingers crossed for me, as I'm going for another interview next week.

Hi, I hate to beg..its not my nature but I had menegitis and almost died guess it wasnt my time to go but I lost everything, my house my career as an electrician and my health. Im 48 and live in an apartment now but it is tough, I used to make decent money as an electrician but I had to stop and file disability...Now I live on that and I have a 9 year old son that doesnt want me to quit. I have a wife and she says it not about the money which is true,,,but I know she worries...we live in an environment where there are some pretty shady people and I hate having put us in this situation..10 years ago we owned our own house and I had a career but now we live in constant stress...we are from San Diego but moved to NC because I thought there may be work and I was a Marine here in the 1980s, I got sick soon after getting here and it has been very difficult. I dont want to take out a payday loan, I dont believe in that I would accept even a dollar from someone who could possibly help...I only want to help raise my son who is a great kid and is happy with what he has...I appreciate any help anyone can give...Dave

I am suffering from diabetes, depression, giddiness, backache, tension headache, anxiety, high cholesterol and on daily medication. I have no money to see Doctor for a medical check-up and medicines as I need the medicines urgently due to my daily medication have finished. It is very dangerous to stop taking medicines for the chronic diseases. My age, 59 years old, unemployed due to poor health.

My only son is living with me and his age, 33 years old, unemployed due to poor health. He is suffering from asthma, high cholesterol and eczema and on daily medication. Every time he went out, he have to bring along his inhale. He wish to study the University of London (UOL) Diploma in law for full time course in April, 2012. He was told to pay his school fee $12,700 to ITC and UOL now in order for him to attend the said class at ITC next year April 2012. Appreciate if you can help him.

My wife was separated from me since 2009 living us in the lurch.

Both my parents has passed away.

All Relatives and All Friends see us automatically ignore and avoid us due to us no money.

Our main gate door was spoilt and need to change immediately without delay to prevent strangers enter my house, my kitchen windows was also faulty and need to change immediately without delay it was given warning by the authority due to the windows will fall any time and very dangerous to hit people passers-by causing injuries.

We need $3,800 and $12,700 total is $16,500 now to pay school fee, bills, daily living expenses and medical fees compulsory.

We are very worries, stress, anxiety and daily living in fear without daily income.

We pray that good people will help and save us between life and death to enable us to continue survive without living in fear. We seek your understanding.

In view of the premises, I humbly pray that my appeal will be considered favourably.

Looking forward to hear from you shortly.


Thank You.

I'm a graduate student, but I don't get nearly enough in financial aid to pay the bills. Unfortunately, this year is the worst yet. As of right now, I am 2 months behind on my rent and dangerously close to becoming evicted. I would like to note that I did not rent a big place to begin with - a small, one-room studio with the lowest-priced rent I could find in my neighborhood. I am also at least two months behind on most of my other bills (credit card bills accrued from supplementing what little I get from financial aid as well as bills for Internet). I have been looking for a job for the past several months to help pay the rent with little luck or success. Though I found a part-time job within the last month, it unfortunately pays minimum wage, and I truly feel like the income from that job is too little, too late. I just cannot catch up with all the debts I have accrued. The financial worries are stressing me out and having a negative effect on my schoolwork. The last thing I need is school troubles on top of my financial worries. Please have a heart and help me out. It would be greatly appreciated.

I am a single student taking college courses right now dealing with some expensive bills. When I decided to get some dental work done, I had the financial backing in my bank account, but after losing my job, all my savings drained quickly having to pay both rent and the dental bill each month. I have just recently found a job, but it is only part time at the moment. Once college starts up again in a few weeks, I will have very little room to negotiate a 40 hour work week since I only took the job out of desperation. I am worried that I will not be able to make the dental bill coming up in about a week.

I have had zero success in asking for donations before, so I'm a bit skeptical about asking even now, but even $1 would go a long way in putting some of my worries to ease. Thank you for your consideration.

I'm not sure if this works but I'm going to give it a try. I am a 20 year old college student trying to save my education. I have struggled since the fall of 2010. I am so tired. I've had so many worries. My parents have had alot of worries too. I want to change my life. I NEED to change my life. I want to help so many people but how can I help people if I need help myself? :( All I'm asking for is some cash to get a car or to fix one up. My education and my life is one the line! I'm going to be going in the summer soon and I really need some transportation to get there. If someone could please help me I would appreciate it immensely.

I have written down all my worries now, and set them aside in a box marked for God to handle. I try to live daily with an attitude of gratitude for everything, even the tough times like now.

I ran across this site while doing a web search trying to find some help and fast.I have never done anything like this but figured it could not hurt to try and ask for some help.

I am working a full-time job and am looking for a second job at least part-time, but do not make enough to cover everything and get gas in the car to make it to my job. I am finding it harder and harder to make ends meet until I get my next paycheck. I always feel like I am robbing Peter to pay Paul and can not get caught up.

My Husband is disabled and trying to get SSI. He had to quit his job quite a while back due to back problems and has not been able to find any other source of income yet, then he had a heart attack which resulted in him having to have 5 bypasses done. I was able to get medicaid for him to cover all his medical bills Thank you God.

Rent is due in one week, and our landlord will not take partial or late payments and bills are overdue, they will be shutting off the lights this Wednesday morning And the phone will be shut off Friday unless I can somehow get the money together to pay them or at least give them a partial payment. The total of everything I need is $937.82

Praying and praying that I get some help fast. Anything you can afford to give me to help will go to the utility companies and my landlord. Any amount would be greatly appreciated after all if everyone who reads this could give even just $1, $2, $5 or whatever you can afford it all adds together to make the amount I need. Thank you in advance for helping and Thank you for your time in reading this.

God Bless You All,

I need help to pay bills. I do not drink, smoke, or do drugs. I have just had some bad luck the last few years. Feb 1997 I suffered a back injury at work and my life spiraled out of control Any amount of money or financial assistance would be appreciated.I am struggling to survive.

The Short story; of how I got where I am today.
I was living fine, working two jobs full time construction work, and a paid on call Fire Fighter, I had a Great income. Life was good.
then in Feb 1997 I suffered a back injury at work and my life spiraled out of control. I was diagnosed with degenerative disk diseases. A condition were my disc between my vertebrae are Dissolving, so no cushion between my bones and they rub and pinch my nerves, causing me sever back pain.
Then came the Debit, The Repossessions, the Foreclosure, my wife left me taking my kids while I was still in the hospital, we Divorce, and then I was homeless all within 6 short months after my injury. My income would never be the same.
Since then I have struggled to get a job to support my garnishments and medical bills. The IRS take 75% after tax, and my Student loan demands 25%, of my income. well you can do the math. To make matters even worse, because the garnishment is not the full payment they damand, THE STATE Add interest charges so I will never get ahead.
things have gotten so bad that, I am essentially homeless. I am staying between friends houses only to sleep and take showers. i had to let my car insurance laps which worries me alot, and the most of my money goes to food, and gas to dirve to jobs/shelters or friends, it also seconds as my room for the night sometimes.I am taking whatever light work jobs that comes my way just to eat.

PLEASE I need help. im at the end of my rope.

ill take any job abvove $15 per hr to cover garnishments, or some donation, im not picky. I Do have skills just no job wanting a disable person to work for them.

Can anyone please help me.

Me and my fiance are at wits end on how we are going to make it. We want so desperately to get back to where he was born and raised in Ellenville N.Y. and we are stuck here in Kentucky. We moved from about 100 miles away so I could care for my father and he passed away be 2 years in Sept. We have lost our water AGAIN they cut it off last week and my fiance can't find any work here ,, he does construction and its not happening here. We have no car and he walks everywhere to look for any type of work just to get by and he has been ripped off by this whole town as he never charges what the big wigs do to fix a home.. We go out of our way to help others even when we have nothing and Im so scared we are going to loose our apartment(which is an old funeral home and we are the only ones here)We have been scrapping metal and junk the last week just to feed ourselves and get by. I just want to get to where he use to live so we can get back on our feet and make it on our own. I hate asking anyone for help but I am at the point of giving up on everything as its just not working out. We try so hard to get ahead and we get slapped back 20 feet and cant get back up. right now we are going to loose our Electric come Monday morning if we cant come up with the other 147.67.. I worked with a neighbor other day helping her plant her flower beds and cleaned her home and my fiance went and done an odd job plus walked gathering aluminum cans to turn in and we was able to give them 120.00 of it but they only gave us till Monday for the rest of it. Not to mention not having food but got up this morning and someone left a box of food on our step that will get us by for a few days and am so greatful ..I have been to every place in this town to get help and no one is willing to do anything. I do not know what this world is coming to when no one will extend a hand . and right now if someone came to me and needed something I did have I would give it up as I feel there are others who need it more then I do.. I just keep praying for a Miracle and It never happens no matter how hard we try.I do not understand why there are people in this town that goes out and cons people and charges an outrageous price to do things and they are running around with their heads in a cloud and having everything when we try and try and we just get farther behind. I know It sounds like I'm complaining but I just want to live normal without so may worries and to get out of this town that keeps dragging us farther down in the homeless pit..is there any help to be found.We want to save enough to make the move as he has work waiting for him there and its over a 1000 miles away to get there plus have to have enough to at least get us a cheap effenciency for a week or so till the money starts to happen as I do not care if I have to live in a homeless shelter to get on our feet when we get there.. It's just managing the money to make it there..I will not give up hope and faith as I pray to God everyday to at least bless us to be able to make it through 1 more day. I have family here but well like alot of families they have just turned their backs and won't do anything to help but I was there to help them when they needed a sitter or someone to do things they couldnt or my fiance redone their places for basically nothing in return as that is how we are.. to make a long story short almost 4 yrs ago me and my fiance built a deck on the front of my parents home and it was for my dad to be able to sit outside in his wheel chair to enjoy the weather instead of sitting inside and wasting away and it was a 20 ft by 28 foot under roof with rails and steps and an extra pole rail for my dad to hold onto to walk the deck for exercise and done with all deck wood and its really nice and we got a total of 330 bucks for all that but we didnt complain as it was from our hearts to my dad as I am a daddy's girl and even though he is now a beautiful Angel I am still a daddys girl..we also put siding on their house which was stucco house so it all had to be drilled in with plastic inserts and we done it the way my dad always wanted it to look and I would have done anything for my daddy as he would do anything for me I was his baby girl but again we done it out of the kidness of our hearts and love for hi, .. there is alot more to add from and about other family members that saved them BUNDLES but can't even help with a meal now.. but I will not hold a grudge or judge them as its not my place to and they will be judged in the end and that is when it counts the most..but I keep praying to the Good Lord that one day there will be a way for all we need to happen! Hope is running thin though and to the point of just tossing life in and ending it all..and I know that is the wrong way to think but sometimes your mind and heart gets tired and weary and just wants to give up but I will fight till the end to reach our goals of making it to NY.. I really hate to ask and beg but I do not know anything else I can do except keep doing what I am doing and also ask for some help.. I hope all who is needing help will recieve the help they need and I pray for many many Blessings to come your way.. God Bless...

I am a junior psychology major, human development minor attending Howard University. Thus far, school has had its ups and downs. However, I have been able to maintain an acceptable grade point average of 3.46 and a position on the Dean’s Honor Roll. My mother is a struggling single parent of two, living on Unemployment benefits. With the cost of living and rise in the economy, paying my tuition is impossible for her to manage. This financial burden is hampering my abilities to achieve. The thought of having such an outstanding balance in all of my living expenses worries me. With no way of paying these expenses, I think about the possibility that I might have to withdraw from Howard University and go back home. It angers me to know that I am so close to accomplishing my goals and the only thing holding me back is money.
I have been applying for many scholarships, some have been beneficial others not so much. The scholarships that I have received have barely paid for my tuition each semester. Unfortunately I cannot take out a loan because I need a cosigner and my mother is the only one willing to cosign a loan for me. Unfortunately, my mother is not eligible to be a cosigner. I have contacted many different public offices in hopes that they would be able to help with my past due rent and living expenses. However, most of the programs that are offered require the applicants to either have a child or a person over 65 years old in the household. I have tried contacting the provost of my university to see if there is anything that I can do to get extra funding; they suggested work study. However, trying to maintain work study is conflicting with my class schedule. Work study is usually over by 5pm and my classes are also during this time.
With that said, I am seeking sponsorship or any contributions towards my endeavors. If you are unable to contribute, but are aware of other resources that would be of interest, please contact me. I assure you that these contributions are for a good cause. It will allow me to my tenure at Howard University and further my career as a neuropsychologist. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanking You In Advance

I am a junior psychology major, human development minor attending Howard University. Thus far, school has had its ups and downs. However I have been able to maintain an acceptable grade point average of 3.46 and a position on the Deans Honor Roll. I have been honored to be a part of Howard University Swahili Language Flagship program, which allowed me the opportunity to participate in a study abroad trip to Kenya and Tanzania, East Africa. I have also been a committed volunteer to the Capital Area Food Bank, and a encouraging Troop Leader for the Girl Scouts of the Nations Capital.
For as long as I can remember, I have been dedicating myself to giving back to my community. I am writing this letter in hopes that this one time the community will help me. I am a 20 year old African American woman from the inner city of Brooklyn, NY. My mother is a struggling single parent of two, living on Unemployment benefits. With the cost of living and rise in the economy, paying my tuition is impossible for her to manage now. I have tried reaching out to my father; however, instead of committing himself to my life, he preferred the street life.

I am trying to save enough money to buy a house for my fiancee, 3 week old son and myself. We are first time buyers and it is proving impossible to get a mortgage with my current job. I have tried to get more work and am working over 65 hours a week to try and save but our outgoings match what is coming in.. The rent is high and to top it off the landlord is selling our house in a few months so we now have to find somewhere else to live, plus enough for a van etc to move!we just want to a place of our own with no worries of the landlord selling up...

If anyone wants to help we would be so so grateful.

Ever since hitting my early 20's, I have been on a terrifying rollercoaster ride, all within my own mind. After moving out, maintaining a steady job and relatively good physical and overall well being, I began to hear voices which only spoke to me, feeling rampant and unjustifiable paranoia, and uncharacteristic aggression, mostly brought on by the inability to sleep. After seeing a few different psychiatrists, I was officially diagnosed with schizophrenia, and began a regimen of taking 3 types of medication to treat it at different times daily. Fortunately, the medication I was prescribed has been well-received by my body, but, needless to say, three different types of medicine for such a condition are quite expensive, especially since I get them in bi-monthly or tri-monthly increments due to the need to take them every single day.
Since the diagnosis and through this long, strange trip, I lost my home and career, was institutionalized on two occasions, mutilated myself several times, suffered seizures when unable to pay for my medication, and have had several friends and love interests wash their hands of me, either out of dread or the social stigma associated with my condition.
Of course, I realize everyone has problems and financial worries are a large stress factor in many people's lives, however, I value my mental health foremost of my personal concerns, and would be grateful to anyone willing to help me as I continue my battle with this demon, which hopefully I can defeat and get back to living as a normal, functional person.
Thank you for reading, any help, and God bless.

I am a 15 year old guy with a passion for helping people. I decided about a year and a half ago that I wanted to devote my life to medicine, specifically Emergency Medicine. I decided this when I watched someone get hit by a car just up the street from my house and I couldn't help. I am currently volunteering in a hospital to get exposure and I am on the honor roll at my high school. I am not asking for a lot of money, anything you can give would be great. If you can't donate anything, no worries, just keep me in your thoughts.

Thanks,

Nick Cooper
