Need Some Advice (What does the future hold?)
3 years ago
Dear Furiends,
Ok so…as it stands, right now, I am trying to take some time to piece together what steps I need to take to move forward. As you may or may not have known, my father died in August and since then my life has been in a persistent tailspin of epic proportion (most of all financially).
I receive $2000/mo from my Dad’s stipend. That helps pay for some of the bills and some odds and ends but at some point I need to find a new job. When Pop died, (I was adopted at birth by a gay couple) I lost my job. The ONLY job that I had ever known or had. What makes this hard is that, thanks to all of the bs Pops put me through, I dont have any experience working for anyone other than the company that I worked for (which is now defunct) and it is making me nervous to start all over again.
I have a BA in History, I am working hard to try and stay in California (upcoming recession is due to hit hard) and taking care of Pops’ estate is a full-time job in of itself. I dont know what to do right now. I want to go back to school and I want to send my brother to school to get his GED and his degree so HE can start his life too. I am just a nervous wreck right now because of everything that is happening. I dont know how to move forward and I am genuinely scared that I will be unable to make something of my life or career. Im getting way too into my own head right now and I could really use some advice.
