As for the stress and anxiety?
I am stressing out majorly but slowly, slowly getting better. =) Seeing a therapist and got on some meds for my OCD, Depression, PTSD and Generalized Anxiety.
So...
1.) I took in Aries the wolfdog about 4 or so months ago. He has medical issues I've not been able to make up the cost for A. his biopsy($200) and B. his surgery to remove the mass($700) - I have estimates for both. But we are currently re-homing him to a wolf rescue. Just trying to come up with some way to get the $$ to drive him to Abilene, Tx.
Meet Aries.
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/14193797/
He's our new rescue. A Giant Malamute Wolfdog.
UPDATE: Aries left Sunday morning. A trasnport came to pick him up and drive him to his new home. I cried, a lot.
2.) March Karasu and I just spent $700 on Pandora when the neighbor tried to poison her and she stayed at the vet overnight on fluids. 2 months later, May - she has her tumor/spay($700 surgery). Now one of her little cysts on her head is twice as big. I dont have the $$ to take HER in for another removal.
UPDATE: She still has the cyst, Karasu and I cannot seem to save up enough to get her seen. Hopefully it's nothing major - but being my Service Dog.. I need her at peak performance. =/
3.) Took in a friend and his small family. For 2yrs they lived with the parents of the father of the child. The child is disabled - born disabled. The parents of the father are hoarders with 6 cats and 3 dogs that use the restroom anywhere state came in a month ago and the only reason they didnt take the baby was because he cant crawl yet its me and the fiance in a huge 3bedroom house and with me fighting for disability, I have to stay unemployed while i fight. we needed the help, they needed out of there. it was a lst minute decision. We talked to them and they moved in about 2mos ago. I try and help when I can. I feel for the baby and with therapy once a week in Owasso and a nurse who comes out once every 2 weeks, they needed a cleaner, bigger house for him. Plus the parents(and the father's sister and husband) chain smoked in the house and we dont smoke let alone in the house either so its a lot safer for a baby. Both can't drive and have no vehicle so I have to teach them both how to drive so they can get their driver's license. So I'm being a chauffeur for him for work and will be for Tiff and Corwin for his therapy. *sighs*
so thats the background of the current situation
UPDATE: They still live with us, I'm basically a live-in nanny, baby-sitter, Chauffeur. Not happy about it rally but that baby's health comes first and he JUST had a Mickey button g-tube put into place 3wks ago.
4.) I am fighting for Social Security Disability and have to stay unemployed while I fight,
UPDATE: still fighting
5.) Everytime I go to the doctor thats $35 out of our pocket. If it's a specialist, like my psychiatrist for my CFS, PTSD, OCD, and Anxiety/Stress thats $45 each + meds. MRI of my lower back(since I am often on a 10lb weight limit) or sleep study(which lawyer and doctor want to do) $150 each. It adds up on only one income(Karasu's). They add up when i'm on 6 diff meds which I ran out of(doesnt help at all) PLUS gas to drive 30min into Tulsa(south of us by 30-45min) and back each time I have an appointment and its not like my truck is amazing on gas. I have an appointment this Thursday to see the therapist and get my meds refilled.
UPDATE: still seeing docs and getting meds even if it causes our balance to get in the hole. =/
We are trying to hit up food pantries and stuff like that. Tiff is on WIC and food stamps now so that helps(mainly the baby and some groceries). We hit up Guts Church for their food drive on Fridays. We went to a thrift store/food pantry place there in Collinsville. They gave us 2 small zip lock bags of cat and dog food. Fed my dogs 1 night and same for the cats. It was nice. They also gave us 2 small Walmart bags of Mac n cheese. A can of veggies. That fed 4 adults 1 night. I mean it helps but not a lot. We have plans to go to Cornerstone Freewill Baptist Church for their food drive on Tuesday but you can only go once a month.
UPDATE: Tiff got on food stamps but for a baby and 4 adults, its not much. We still go to the food pantries and church handouts when we have gas to go.
6.) BOTH yes, BOTH my laptops bit the dust. I need a new one - cuz I dont want to sit in the far back room all day to be on messengers. =(
7.) my phone crapped out on me. First one had a shattered screen but touch screen still worked but no memory so I upgraded to newer version. Shattered screen months afterwards, wasnt as bad a shatter as the first phone but half the screen didnt touch register. Spent $100 to replace screen. few months later out of the blue the phone wouldnt recognize touch screen at all. took it in, internal issue, not their problem. so im out a phone. went back to Karasu's old crappy phone before he upgraded so i at LEAST HAVE a phone - well, his touch screen works but its off. I can touch a letter and 3 letters over highlights up. takes forever to text. I have to do voice-to-text and that often times sucks lol so I need another $100 for a new phone ><
So... thats why I am stressed. VERY stressed. It never seems like I can ever get financially stable. I mean, we'd have had money for Aries in the savings but we cleaned that out for Pandora earlier this year within 2mos. Karasu is paying all the bills, mortgage, etc on his paycheck. The roommates help some, but it doesnt seem like enough.
So... thats the update. LOTS of bills, medical expenses, phone issues, laptop issues, etc.

If you want to help - my paypal is known2bite[at]yahoo.com - remember it takes 3-5 business days for $$ on paypal to get into my bank acct. You want to do a MoneyGram or a Walmart 2 Walmart through Walmart which is immediate as long as Customer Service is still open and it costs $4.50 but you can send $$ right to us. PM me for any questions, contact info for helping out, etc.
LT;DR - Life sucks. Need help. =( Pride being put aside for the disabled baby.

Hope what I scrambled together to help out helped.
Sadly now I'm getting smacked down myself :( I've been forewarned I'm facing termination at work today. Effing useless, fraudulent metrics :(
I was on pills for the same things, I regret the day I ever started taking them..
Just a little warning.
Hint: if you look at the chemicals, and the imbalance it does to your system only makes you more depressed.
