The Bigbrokeman's Story

Well, I started out with a very promising future. While in high school, I started to get daily headaches with no apparent cause. I tried to tough it out and go to college, etc, but it didn't work out well. I applied for SSDI in the 90s to pay for my medical treatments and subsequently get a monthly disability stipend from them. It is now 20 years later and I am still struggling on a monthly basis. After rent and immediate bills, I have approximately $20 to live on for the whole month. I am very glad to get this help, but my standard of living is very poor. I can't do much, but what I am able to do, I can't afford. It is very depressing to see that in a few years, SSDI is going to be cut off. I don't know what I'm going to do then. I have no fallback and I can't work. I've tried many times and I just end up in severe pain.

I guess what I'm asking for is a leg up. I have interesting ideas and see opportunities, but have no way of acting on them. Please help, I'm slowly spinning down a hole and I don't see a way out.
