I served four years in the marines and was discharged in 2024 with chronic tinnitus. I have been waiting nine months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place.
I have a plan: a deposit on a one-bedroom apartment. The quote I have comes to $2,600.
I'm receiving counseling through the veterans' clinic and am committed to my recovery. Structure and a stable place to live are the missing pieces.
I'd be grateful for any help and will share updates on how I'm doing.
I'll post invoices, with personal details hidden.
Where the $2,600 goes:
• Essential household items: $260
• Housing deposit and first month: $2,100
• Transport to appointments: $240
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

how is Da-eun doing now?
Sending good thoughts, Da-eun. Your post was clear and honest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Wrocław.
is there anything that isn't money that would help Da-eun?
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about essential household items, advice is welcome too.
You're not alone, Da-eun. This could happen to any of us. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
Hang in there. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
Sending strength. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'll check back for the next update. Greetings from Likoni.
hope things get better soon, Da-eun. Hope this works out for you. Take care.
