In Crisis bad. Need help!!!!
Been trying to prevent the er with communicating with my docs and being assertive. Even when admitted into the hospital I was being assertive with them. With the lack of availability of staff and budget cuts it has been hard trying to get home health covered by my insurance. I can’t afford private pay. I have been disabled for a long time. I only get Medicaid and SSI because my disabilities happened at age 23 not before age 22 and I haven’t worked enough prior to qualify. I was working prior to Covid. I got a lot worse since then but I’m still trying to finish my bachelors degree so I can work again. I need help at home with everything right now. When I was getting discharged and finally able to get dressed I hurt myself in the bathroom. I still need help with everything and am just almost as bad as I was coming into the er.
I reached out to my brothers saying dad and I are very stressed and need help. He can’t keep up with everything around the house ontop of taking care of me 24:7 with everything. It’s very overwhelming and fustrating handling this all by ourselves.
They told me I should went to rehab facility and demanded it and I need to move out. I told them I have been trying to get help before it got this bad. I get passed around. Even my docs and the social workers couldn’t find anywhere to go or have home health come in. Their is no other options.
They told me to hang in there and will call me tomorrow when have a chance. My anxiety is through the roof. No one has been listening that things are very bad bc I can’t get help. I need help right now. I don’t want to keep going back to the er. I’m doing everything I can to not crack. I have been pro active assertive and persistent. Things haven’t gotten better. They’ve gotten worse. I’m trying not to sink. I just keep treading water not moving forward. I’m exhausted physically mentally and emotionally. Nothing is working. I’m not a major priority when I should be.
Even in the er I had true serious emergency and didn’t get attended to fast enough when the er wasn’t even super busy nor had life or death situations that every second counts comes in. What not being able to move nor being able to not have bladder and bowel control with that much pain doesn’t count as an emergency when I was able to walk and even pee that morning? Having ptsd flashbacks with this all doesn’t help either. I’ve literally been screaming for help demanding it and not getting it. Our healthcare system is getting worse instead of better.
Government services for people who need them are getting taken away or changing their qualifications for people not to receive it who desperately need it. I’m scared for what America is turning into and will become in my future. Will I even be able to survive down the road? I should have accessible healthcare that’s affordable for all my chronic conditions but I don’t. Things literally changed overnight for me 15 years ago and slowly got worse. Before then I was a very healthy 23 year old. I’m now 38 years old needing the most care I have ever needed in my life and not getting it. I have lost friends over the years due to my health. Don’t want to lose my family as well.
I don’t see any light at the end of this tunnel anymore. I don’t want to be in a nursing home for the rest of my life with not getting proper care there due to lack of staff. It happens every day bc not enough help and staff don’t want to do something that’s not their job. What happened to people being decent kind caring and hardworking wanting to help others? #CheckInWithMe #MentalHealth #IfYouFeelHopeless #Anxiety #Undiagnosed #ChronicIllness #ChronicPain #Depression #FamilyAndFriends #Trauma

Come Alive by Melanie R.
Come Alive by Melanie R.
Hell only fights what heaven favors!
You carried the burdens;
the struggles of pain.
Fought for it all-didn’t give up!
You didn’t fall when it got tough.
Turned to the lord and prayed-
(He heard you)
ooh (always been down for ya)
And God’s not done with your testimony of faith, perseverance,…
and trusting The Name-
Jesus,
we thank You for healing.
Restoring the lost.
the way, the life, the truth!
Making me new.
The pressure revealed what couldn’t be shaken.
Reignite passion-
destiny awakened.
ooh Jesus-
Moving by purpose;
built and established.
Rise to fruition.
Come alive (come alive) in Christ.
Come alive! So alive! In Christ!
Awakened! Favored! Strengthened through The Name.

My Favorite Things by Melanie R.
My favorite Things by Melanie R.
My favorite things are not things at all.
To soak my whole spirit in His Holy word.
To sing of His praises;
Hallelujah all day long!
Telling my testament,
with His healing song.
Nothing in this world means more.
My hands clean, my heart made pure!
To be right in spirit,
He gave a new heart.
Your vision so clear, I hear of the Lord!
To love on His people,
to share from the heart.
and outdo in giving..
my favorite part!!!
Amen!!!
We thank you for gifts of healing…all my favorite things-
It’s all in your revealing.
Not things at all.
My favorite things in heaven,
stored up with the Lord.
These are a few of my favorite things.
Thank You Jesus!
Galatians 6:10
So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith!
Matthew 6:19-21
Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven…for where your treasure is, there your heart will also be.
Keep your eyes on eternity!

Behold by Melanie R.
Behold by Melanie R.
Heaven pulled you in;
Drew you close.
Unlocked divinity, and opened your heart.
Breaking through the suffering in silence.
Behold!
He is the Lord!
Is anything too hard for Him?
He is able.
He is the God of all flesh, the overlooked, the doubting….the suffering…
of you.
Behold!
Truly see.
Behold what The Lord is revealing.
His love light shines through.
He is the Lord over every detail of your life. He sees it all, and calls you His!
You belong to Him!
In the midst of struggle, He heals, restores and redeems.
Hear his voice thunder…
Is anything too hard for him?
He is the God of the impossible, and makes a way.
Never lost a battle!
Raises the dead!
Always keeps His promises!
Listens as we pray…
Behold!
He is The Lord!
Jeremiah 32:17
Ah, Lord God! It is You who made the heavens and the Earth by Your great power, and by Your outstretched hand. Nothing is too hard for you.
Jeremiah 32:27
Behold, I am The Lord, The God of all flesh. Is anything too hard for me?

I don't have anyone i want to share this with because I don't want my family to feel sorry for me or to worry them, so I'm sharing on here.
Things were finally starting to look bright for me. I'm seeking medical and mental attention and I'm feeling optimistic about it. I was finally able to land a job after more than 2 months of applying and searching.
I did my taxes and was getting a "big" refund so I decided it was time to take care of a mechanical problem that my car was having. I decided to do this because I was planning on driving 12 hours to see my family. I figured once I start working i won't be able to take a whole week of as easily as I'd like to. So I took the car to the mechanic and got the problem fixed. Unfortunately he said there are other things that are wrong with the car and to try to not drive the car as much. It's just under 3k for those repairs. Practically the worth of the car.
Now I'm feeling devastated that I won't be able to see my family. I'm also now having to worry about my car giving out while I'm driving to and from work.
I try to see the good in things, I could have still driven the car as it was, but maybe it would have giving out in the middle of nowhere. I'm seeing it as a blessing in disguse but it still sucks and I'm sad that I won't be seeing my family soon.
Now I'll have to save up to move out and save up to either buy a car or fix it.

Some Words You Might Need to Hear
You are not too much. You were just never met with enough.
You are not weak for feeling everything so deeply. That is your strength, not your flaw.
You didn’t deserve what happened to you. Even if someone made you believe you did.
Some people will never understand your pain, because they never had to survive what you did. That doesn’t make your story any less real.
It is okay to miss people who hurt you. Missing is not the same as returning.
You’re allowed to walk away from people who once meant the world to you. That doesn’t make you heartless. It makes you brave.
You’re not falling behind. You’re healing in a world that doesn’t know how to slow down.
You are not the bad guy just because someone else decided to rewrite the story.
There is no shame in needing help. There is no weakness in asking for support.
You are not broken. You are becoming.
You don’t need to explain your pain to everyone. Some people will never get it. That doesn’t mean you’re wrong for feeling it.
You’ve survived 100% of your worst days. That counts for something.
You don’t owe healing to the people who hurt you. You owe it to yourself.
You are allowed to take up space, to rest, to cry, to be loud, to feel joy again.
You are not alone.
You are worth loving. Even now. Especially now.
And if no one has told you lately: I’m proud of you. I’m glad you’re here.
