homelessness help: I have recently lost everything in the credit crunch. - Help.com



This post left anonymously

I have recently lost everything in the credit crunch.

I lost my home, car, partner, friends, work, dog, etc. He left me to deal with all the debts and bills also the sole care of two children. I am very sad. I have had nowhere to go and me and my children slept in the car for a while. although i didn’t tell anyone as i did not want my children taken into care. None of the people i helped in the past (quite a few) wanted to know. even though i have given them homes and lent them thousands of pounds in the past. I have had to move away from the area in which we lived because i was offered a job. I took the job with a house and car attached and everything started to improve. I found schools for my two children (they were in private schools before) and i was beginning to feel better until the man i worked for asked me to marry him. When i said i would not consider a relationship (other than working) he smashed my windows and harassed me constantly. My neighbours got fed up of him and called the police. He was arrested and now he is evicting us from the house unless we pay rent which is now £300,000. I have no work and don’t know what to do anymore. I am healthy, intelligent, good looking and a good mum. I just want to work and have a stable home life for my children. I don’t take drugs or drink to excess. I am very lonely and afraid.
My children are ten and seventeen. They are well balanced and nice children whom i love dearly. I feel bad that i couldn’t compromise my principles but good that i can’t be treated like a commodity, i thought i would feel ok because i kept my self respect and dignity but now i have no money and am going to be homeless.
I have no family.

I’m sorry about your situation.

If you came here looking for money, sorry there is no money.

We at help.com are so broke we cannot pay attention.
