god it's just. so maddening. that with POTS, EDS, and fibromyalgia, there are days when i just. can't. like. i'm awake for just a few hours and i'm already at zero spoons and desperately wanting to go back to bed.
dad wants me to look for a job. i don't know if i can.
i've been trying to show him that yes, i am trying to "get things done" and "live a life i want" but when he can't seem to grasp that i have limits, every time my symptoms flare up i'm terrified he thinks i'm doing it on purpose.
the one thing i know i can improve on is actually going to bed earlier. i know that would help at least a few of my problems. but idk, the hours between 10 pm and 4 am slip by so quickly i barely notice.
think i'm just gonna doze for a bit. maybe i'll have enough energy to take my fucking trash out like i've been meaning to all week

does anyone familiar with this system understand how the overlap between SSI disability checks and section 8 housing vouchers would work? my SSI doesn’t provide me with enough to functionally live off of, but if i get a side gig or sell art even that proves im capable of working and i’ll lose my disability… my “low income” housing is still above 1k a month, which feels insane to me. but im afraid to apply for a housing voucher in case it fucks with my SSI and i end up getting like $13 a month instead because i have “no cost of living”
my disabilities directly impact my ability to think clearly and research this effectively… funny how all resources for disabled people deliberately built to be inaccessible for the exact people they are pretending to try and help

one thing that did bother me reading "evicted" that I don't see people bring up that often is that after seeing what each of these people are going through and how draining/cruel the eviction process can be, the author's solution is just more housing vouchers. even though the book itself makes a good case for why that wouldn't be enough

E io che pensavo di aver già dato con le relazioni a distanza e le corse forsennate con zaini pesantissimi sulle spalle per arrivare un minuto prima che parta il pullman
