I have reached a point where I'm going to hit a rock bottom. I'm in school. Life is okay. But I'm working for free. I make 11 an hour, only to lose it all in paying off my new car or to medical expenses or anything else. It's so depressing looking at my paycheck only to see it disappear. Spending two weeks dealing with rude customers, staying up late to do homework, trying to make a something out of my nothingness, dealing with depression and anxiety and a faithful relationship. It's all hard sometimes and there are days where I just want to sleep and never wake up. But I can't... I can't quit. But I really hate being broke even more.

The world loves to watch people suffer. I know I'll reach a better place, and I'm grateful for the comments. I was having such a bad day when I posted this and cried for hours. But I think I needed that. It's better than holding it all in.

You are working towards bettering your life, it will all get better. You make me proud, so I know your family/friends are impressed, too. Keep on keeping on.
And be careful who you vote for. How dare Governor Christy not raise minimum wage to $15 an hour in New Jersey
