My name is Mackenzie. I'm 39 years old, and I have suffered from depression (of one form or another) for the past 20 years or so, only recently diagnosed and being treated. As a result, I did very little with my life (the difficulty of finding a job without a car and buying a car without a job notwithstanding) and now I'm to the point where I have to ask random people for help. My depression is still not very good, I thought of begging for money online at the beginning of November, and I was only just now able to bring myself to actually do it. Due to circumstances beyond my control, I will no longer be able to live where I am currently living after the end of the year. If I don't have a place to go by the end of the year, I will probably end up homeless. What I really need the most right now is time, and the money I'm asking for will help me buy that time to find gainful employment and afford a vehicle, by allowing me to rent a place to live and pay bills, without the major debilitating handicap of being homeless as well. I have been homeless before, but those times I had a car, so I at least had some shelter of my own. Now, I do not even have a car, so I have no idea what I would do if I ended up homeless again. I greatly appreciate anything you can contribute, just know it will help keep someone off the streets, and even work towards becoming a functioning, contributing member of society.
