I’m feeling overwhelmed with everything. I wish I didn’t feel alone, it’s sooo extremely hard to do everything myself, taking care of my cat, taking myself, reading my mail & trying to understand it, buying groceries & buying cleaning products. Trying to remember the little things, brush my hair, brush my teeth, change my underwear, wash my body & my hair. I still haven’t gotten my covid vaccine yet, I cannot do it on my own, I can’t walk good, I have alot of pain in my feet& lower legs (near my ankles) I been using my wheelchair alot. I can’t take a regular shower or bath, I cannot stand up in the shower or sit down in the tub, I been sponge bathing myself with a washcloth. I can’t go in the laundry room to wash my clothes, I been handwashing my clothes, I wish there an easier way, I can’t wash my sheets & blankets. I wish I can do things like I used to, my Aspergers gotten worse with age, I’m having a hard time focusing on things. I wish I have friends here that understand at least a little bit, I feel like it’s me vs the world. I hate myself Sooo much, I hate having a learning disability. I hate that I’m still alive. I’m depressed now, I got out of bed at 2:33 pm, I wish I could stay in bed.

Are you on Disability or Social Security?
You should have a caseworker.
Call him/her.
Tell him you need a complete physical exam, and please schedule one.
Buses have accommodations for wheelchairs.
Many grocery stores deliver now because of Covid...you can get nourishing food despite your difficulties.
You need to call your caseworker.
