I need to travel this month / myLot

November 17, 2024 12:15pm CST

Even if I can't leave my house to buy something I need to travel. If not, I will lose my disability. This income is not enough. I receive $100 monthly. The law changed and they want to stop giving money to many people. They need hospitalizations and I need to travel to have them. The trip will last 40 minutes. And Blue is behaving weirdly. His head is tilted, and he has a weird look on his face. He has good days and bad days. Yesterday he was a normal cat. Today he is different. He stays hidden in a closet all day and he doesn't move. I have to prepare myself because maybe Blue will need to travel too. If his disease continues I have to collect money for his problem. In a way, it's a good thing that I need to travel because it will be a preparation for my surgery. I can't avoid traveling all my life. I need to make progress even if it's difficult.

I think I am not able to travel even if I need to.

@dya80dya Tell yourself that you can do it, not that you can't

I hope something good happens for you and for Blue. Hiding in a closet is sometimes a sign of distress in a cat.

Maybe he is anxious or depressed. I separated him from my other cat. I am not sure what can cause him anxiety.

Thank you, but I don't think I can do this. I prefer to lose my disability.

I didn't make an appointment for my surgery. I postponed it for years because I can't travel. I know that I can't do this. I can see that I can't even go to a store.

@dya80dya 40minutes it's less than hour and maybe you can do it, only this time. if you close your eyes, take a pill for relaxing, asking someone to come along with you.

Sounds like a tough situation, but God never gives more than what you can handle.

I guess the trip is not free either, kind of weird for the government to expect you to travel when you're struggling financially already. But hopefully you can make it and the preparation for surgery will be just fine. I also hope Blue is going to feel better, I'd be worried too.
