Sorry for the silence, executive dysfunction + depression makes just typing hard.
A couple of people asked what I need. A short list:
- Money. I've been unable to get work because of my mental health and I'm trying to get treatment (nobody will hire me after an interview) and I'm applying a disability pension. But the system is fighting me every step of the way and I just don't have the spoons to do that fast.
If I can earn money another way, though commissions or whatever, I'm willing to try that. I'm not stable enough for real responsibility and it's taken me years to acknowledge that I need help.
- Progression of my transition.
Financial distress + mental health in the toilet = barely any spoons to continue my transition. Self care is hard enough, beyond that is a major struggle at the moment. No money for changing my wardrobe or other transition needs.
- Stable housing.
I'm renting, I have housemates that are fast friends, but if my landlord decides to sell up in this volatile market this year I'll be homeless. Last year our landlord sold out from under us and it took every penny I'd saved including coronavirus relief to get us into a new home. If we have to do that again this year, which is possible, it'll be very bad.

i suffer badly from anxiety disorder
There is this gland in brain called hippocampus. When it shrinks people experience depression and anxiety much more than most people. While not a cure, aerobic exercise increases the size of the gland and therefore reduces the symptoms. Whatever works for you. I do walking and bicycling.
