There is not much that I have not tried to figure out how to get some help or something.

Two times spending money on lawyers to try and get SSDI only to get before a judge and be denied.

I have emailed and called every number and service that I can and they just tell me that I don't qualify or that they can't help me.

With the current state of things in this country, seeking aid of any kind is problematic at best. Add to that the absolute necessity of not putting unnecessary miles on an already crippled vehicle and (as usual) not being anywhere near said agencies or services...

Like I said... cursed. You know that old trope about a group of characters going through a doorway, and the one that usually is the 'Pagliacci-style' comic relief who cannot get through the same door that everyone else went though with no effort?

That's me.
