well im back. im living with my fiance in melbourne now, we are boarding with a friend at the moment. we have been here for 3 months now and things are pretty bad.

we have no money, are in debt, are at risk of having our car taken, and may not have a roof over our heads for much longer. the woman we are staying with wants us out as soon as we have a place because its just too crowded. i am back on the pill as our baby plans are put on hold till our financial situation clears up... if it ever does.

im back on the medication again... already up to the dose i was on before. i am seeing a psychologist again and my GP regularily. things are screwed up. there is no emergency housing we can go into, there are no cabins or caravans anywhere that we could go into either. we have no rental references... i dont know what to do.

i had been off the medication for almost 10 months, i was doing so much better... i wish someone could give us a break... but i dont know what to expect anymore. ill try to keep my chin up! i hope everyone else is doing better than me.

on a good note, i quit smoking 3 months ago. if i can quit with all the stresses i have - than ANYONE can! trust me - no patches, no gum - i just stopped! just find a good reason too - that is important to you - and DO IT!!! GOOD LUCK!

thanks for listening

Heya Tazzy,

Wow, I am sorry you are having such a hard time right now, I have been in similar situations housing and money wise in the past so I understand how stressed you must feel.
Have you tried backpacker hostels? Some of them you are supposed to be from interstate but theres others that will let you stay even if you are local. You can get double rooms that you wouldn't have to share.
Anyway, good luck with it I hope something turns up soon for you.

Great news about quitting smoking, wish I had your strong will, I managed to quit for a whole 2 days before succumbing again, lol!

Best wishes from Kitty
