Just yesterday, I completed an application for snap benefits. That’s all I wanted and needed assistance with. Because I’m a part-time worker, my finances at times get strapped because I’m paying off a loan from a bank and it makes my working budgets feel a little compressed. I need some breathing room here.
I hope I get them but I never intend to be on it forever, I just need some financial security and resource assurance. I’ve always tried being a person who looked to things like this and only go to them when I needed them, not because I wanted them and mooch off from them.
Nope. I got laid off over a year ago, then diagnosed with cancer. I feel guilty for being detered by how complicated some of them are and for not taking full advantage of the programs while I’m at a point where I really do need them and qualify for them. I’m on the mend now, and as soon as I can find a job again, I’ll be glad to be paying back into those programs.
Glad to hear you’re on the mend! Don’t feel guilty, feel angry they make vital programs so complicated and difficult to apply and get approved for
