Just to add I don't even know how we are going to be able to make a seuda on purim and how does hashem expect me to be happy on the most happiest day of the year I wish there could be a group to go collecting for us on purim and help us out with at least $7000 to get on our feet between bills and day to day expense


If that's the case would you consider taking to your Rav about receiving matanos leevyonim?

Thank you all for your care and suggestions. I know I have to stay calm but for the first time in my life I have big bills due and not enough money in my account to cover them. Please Hashem fill my coffers. I have a lot of poverty anxiety from my upbringing. I must learn to let go and let G-d. He can do anything (speaking to myself here) from buying my children clothing that they need to paying for all of the rest of the yt bills (First time Pesach with its endless list bh)

Hugs OP, I am in the same boat.
I keep talking to hashem, I’m trying to strengthen my emunah. DH and I both work really hard and we’re completely dry, all cc’s are maxed.

We used to be able to give $100 each teacher this year I don’t know what will happen.
My body is in knots from all the financial struggles.
The kids were crying that want to go buy food for Mishloach Manos and all I was able to do was cry along with them.

Thanks. Seems applications are closed. I'm in a tight spot since business very recently took a big downturn and expenses went way up. On paper I'm middle class.....

Really trying to stay calm but practically speaking....how am I supposed to do this???
