mental health, poverty 

Going to clarify that while my mental health is crashing, the causes are all external. I can't think my way out of poverty. Every major problem I face requires people I have zero control over coming to meet me halfway (if not actually meeting me where I am), using their power to bridge a gap, and then NOT yanking that bridge out from under me because they got tired of waiting for me to get across it.

The bridge ALWAYS gets yanked. I have cPTSD because the bridge ALWAYS gets yanked. I am trapped in poverty because the bridge ALWAYS gets yanked. All the resources are on one side of a ravine and I am on the side opposite them, and the bridge ALWAYS gets yanked.

@Kentaro Im sorry this is getting to you. I wish there was more I could do to help. I want you to be happy and be able to do what you do without this looming over you all the time.
