I am in a messed up situation right now.
I turned 25 last month and the government took away my child support money. My electricity bill increased by 150%. My uni increased semester fees by 50%. My student loan didn't increase the payout. I was diagnosed with eyesight problems and I need surgery and glasses asap. Guess what I don't have money for.
Looking for a job as an uni student is absolutely awful. I need an employer who works around my timetable because pretty much all of my classes take attendance and if you miss class more than once you're getting kicked out of the course. And because I study 3 subjects I can only work 5-6 hours every week. And as I have dyscalculia I can not work at a register either. On top of that comes the fact that I need to go to the hospital at least 3 times a month for inspection on my eyes. I can't find a job to financiate myself because no employer is accepting this. Everyone expects me to skip uni to work for them and sacrifice everything I have. Uni is my only chance to get a good paying job. I can not afford to drop out. I keep checking for student jobs but when I tell them in the interview they need to work around me they end the interview.
Fuck everything honestly. My parents are dead thanks to cancer so they can't support me either. I am in debt because of my hospital bills. The only kind of food I can afford are rice and noodles and I have to eat them every day, no other choice. I am sitting in lectures and I can not read a single word on the slides because my eyesight is so bad people wonder how I even manage to still be alive. I will probably lose my eyesight on at least one eye soon if I can't continue my treatment.
My last attempt is trying to find people who need a home tutor so that the money doesn't go on my bank account. If that doesn't work I am thinking of selling pictures of my feet because I have no other possibilities left. Isn't it sad that you have to sell your body in order to survive in this world?
