I just need to vent/despair.
Today my landlord, who recently bought our place, submitted notice that he planned to renovict us. It truly broke me. I'm currently unemployed, looking frantically for work in this covid economy, we live in the second most expensive city in the country with a sub 1% vacancy rate, and my partner does not make a ton of money. My credit is crap, we have under $3000 in savings, and there are so many people in similar situations that demand for services is stretched beyond capacity.
I can see us losing everything because of this. Custody of my son, our pets, a place to comfortably sleep at night, all security and hope for a better future.
I know there are sooo many families facing similar hardships, but I can't wrap my mind around how cruel and indifferent this all feels. It hurts. I broke down in front of my son today for the first time in many years and it scared him and I feel awful about it.
I'm desperately trying to find that part of myself that, when faced with enormous adversity, finds strength to see it as an opportunity for a new beginning, but I am stressed out of my mind. I couldn't even sleep last night.
I just feel helpless.
