A navy veteran in Jalandhar needs help with a deposit on a one-bedroom apartment after leaving service with hearing damage and PTSD.

I served four years in the navy and was discharged in 2024 with hearing damage and PTSD. I have been waiting fourteen 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 $900.
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 $900 goes:
• Training provider fees: $540
• Housing deposit and first month: $270
• Transport to appointments: $40
• Essential household items: $50
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Take care, Sumaiya. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
Sending strength, Sumaiya. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Jalandhar
