Not as cute as a puppy. A fundraiser for Homeless dogs in Tennessee raised over $20,000. A homeless autistic woman in Tennessee under nearly $100,000 of debt can't even raise $1. :(

Sounds like a wonderful trait to have. :)

With this much debt, I could have an unlivable wage for more than 20 years. That's assuming I'll be given the opportunity to have a career because autistics are largely viewed as a liability and there are plenty of non-autistic people to choose from. If people find it so reprehensible to help me pay...

If I default on the loans, I will likely be unable to secure a job in teaching (a government job), and any job I do get will be garnished to a point below a livable wage. I simply owe too much.

My entire life is in debt. It's unrealistic for me to try to raise money to even put a dent in student loans, pay the medical expenses that my parents owe because of me even if I declared bankruptcy on most everything else. Even if I were to ask for help for two-thirds of my student loan debt, that'...

Have you considered bankruptcy? It'll give you a fresh start. You'll still owe your parents, but you have a realistic chance of being able to pay that without the rest of the debt to worry about. Of course. I can't bankrupt the student loans and I can only get rid of so much of the debt. But money ...

I am just too damn stubborn to give up and die. That's how I was at first, but there has literally been no progress and I every day feels like drowning for me. And I set it to $25,000 because my parents owe about $13,000 in medical debt because of me and my funeral expenses came to almost $9000. I ...

My expectations are at an all-time low, but I would definitely say my dreams are impossible. And there's plenty of things I enjoy doing, but it doesn't negate how miserable of a place the world is. I've already attempted suicide once and the thing I felt most guilty about it is that my family was go...

I've lived with autism for over 30 years, and personally, I'm done. I know I can't be alone in this. So, if you're out there, and you've felt like this, why are you still around? What makes you stay? My only reason for still being here is because what little family I have is so poor and I don't have...
