I served eight years in the army and was discharged in 2024 with post-traumatic stress. I have been waiting eleven months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place.
I have a plan: a first month of rent and transport to job interviews. The quote I have comes to $650.
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 $650 goes:
• Training provider fees: $200
• Housing deposit and first month: $320
• Transport to appointments: $85
• Essential household items: $45
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

You're not alone. Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care.
