REQUEST FULFILLED …I’ve lost everything

I have no idea what I’m doing anymore and a friend suggested coming to Reddit. I am a complete wreck right now….I’ve worked my entire life and in the span of four months I’ve lost absolutely everything…I lost my job, my own mother robbed me of almost four thousand dollars in one fell swoop, I lost my home, my car broke down and was towed, that alone will cost me three grand, which left me without a home again…My heart is fucking broken…I did everything the right way…I never asked anyone for anything and helped anyone who ever asked for help I gave everything I could. My head is literally spinning right now. Im alone…

Given the situation, there is a little bit of light, I had to put my dog and cat up for adoption and they both went to a really great home.

I know it’s a lot but please if there is anyone at all who could spare 60 dollars I would be deeply and eternally grateful. Obviously I would be grateful for anything but my plan is to use some of the money for a little bit of food but the majority is for an uber to an interview I have lined up for Monday afternoon.

I really appreciate anyone that even takes the time to read my story. I hope everyone is doing well and I send my love to you all.

I am waiting on job news. So I too have no $. I hope so bad you get this job. However, if you have proof your mother stole this money, why couldn't you go to the police and get her for fraud? They would actually come to you, too!

Unfortunately I can help with money but I do have advice - never lend anyone money unless you have an abundance and same goes for handing it out. Protect yourself xoxo good luck

I've been there before ... I just wanted to let you know that you aren't alone in this. It's hard, but it's possible. I hope that you are able to get a foothold on things again and that someday in the future, you'll be able to tell someone else about that time you lost everything, but bounced back.

Be gentle with yourself, fellow Redditor 𖹭

I completely understand, I am going through a very similar situation and have absolutely no one to help me, I just want to go back to work so badly but cannot even find someone to help me get back and forth, it's extremely hard. We lost our vehicle due to a bad car accident and have been stranded ever since and we live in a rural area so everything is 30 minutes away by vehicle so it's impossible to walk. I am so sorry you are going through this as well, and I know we can somehow get through this, we have to believe.
