I served twelve 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 $5,350.
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.
Money will be paid to the training provider and the landlord directly.
Where the $5,350 goes:
• Training provider fees: $3,650
• Housing deposit and first month: $900
• Transport to appointments: $440
• Essential household items: $360
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Stay strong, Angel. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Take care.

I hope things turn around soon. After 29 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything
Hope you get there. Love from Cluj-Napoca.
Good luck, Angel. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.
