Money help: I need advise. - Help.com

I need advise.

I can understand that times are tough with today’s economy. That many have problems too, but I would like some advise if at all possible.

I was laid off since January, and I live with my father and mother in a small apartment. My father was laid off and is now disabled, I was laid off, my mother is the only one supporting us, and we lost the house because we can no longer afford it.

I’ve been looking around for jobs, hoping that I may find one, but to no avail. I’ve sold cards, games, comic books, and many things from my childhood that I used to collect to help my mother as she’s the only one working, and she does a lot of doubles.

She has been hospitalized twice already, due to over work, and an hour ago, she was sleeping but woke up in an agonizing pain. This isn’t the only time this happened. I couldn’t help but hold back from crying, until she feels better, then I went to my room and let out my tears. I know I am a guy, and it’s embarassing to admit but, I couldn’t help but cry.

There’s just nothing I can do, I don’t know what to do. I no longer have anything of value as I’ve sold them all, I am unable to get a job, my dad doesn’t work and my mother who’s been hospitalized twice, would usually wake up with such pain.

But the main reason why I am asking for advise is, that I am starting to think about doing some illegal things. That I would usually not even consider. But I don’t know what to do. I feel like I am being cornered.

Please, if anyone can give me some advise, please let me know.
