I served six years in the engineering corps and was discharged in 2023 with hearing damage and PTSD. I have been waiting eleven 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 $2,150.
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 $2,150 goes:
• Transport to appointments: $200
• Essential household items: $380
• Training provider fees: $1,570
Thank you for reading my story.

Sending strength, Mia. Hope this works out for you. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. God bless.
Good luck, Mia. Your post was clear and honest.
gave what I could, wish it was more. After 27 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything!
Thinking of you and your family. I hope things turn around soon. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Geelong
