Tinnitus Talk Support Forum

@tomytl yeah man still struggling so badly. I'm still loking for a room. Asked hundreds of people and agencies, nothing so for. I'm dealing with government BS as well because of the benefit payments. I'm trying to stay strong because there is no one can help. I still want to die every single day but you know how it is.

Ohhh, this apartment search is really super difficult, and on top of that, the stress with the authorities regarding money, especially with everything going on with your ears, which are already weighing you down so much. Hey, I sincerely wish you the best of luck from the bottom of my heart, you are truly very strong. It's absolutely crazy that no one is accommodating you, that's just not right!

This might sound totally silly, but I briefly described your situation in ChatGPT, and it suggested various places you could turn to... It's really just an attempt, and maybe it's complete nonsense what ChatGPT came up with.

For Financial Support:
-Universal Credit
-Employment and Support Allowance (ESA)
-Personal Independence Payment (PIP)
Consulting:
-Citizens Advice Bureau (CAB)

I guess you might know everything, was just an idea. It's really weighing on my mind right now.

@tomytl, thank you for wanting to help man honestly. I also use it whenever I need. I already recieve UC. The first one in your last post. I also contacted the local councils but they are even worse, what they tell me to do is gonna put more stress on me and makes it harder.

I'm trying to find a way out with the simplest way. I think I will be able to that but it's really tiring, painful and difficult. As some other people here say I'm trying to take it as one day at a time but it fucks me up regardless. I don't want to live but life doesn't give me that chance and it goes on.

Because it's your first incident, I guess your chances for improvement are still intact, for sure, it needs time.
My hearing is like a chopped piece of shit after 3 big and some minor setbacks within 20 years.

@tomytl, if I survive I want to run my food and drink business later in life. That's already what I wanted to do before since I like cooking, making food and serving people but my health problems made me quit my job and cancel the business plans. I don't want to do it in the UK because it has become a shithole. Do you think switzerland is good for this? Coffe shops, stalls, festival vans etc?

Why not, I guess Switzerland has a international mix especially in Zuerich, Geneva. But things are expensive, but the system might be a good and a fair one. I hope you can start working on your dream as quick as possible.

Hi just want to ask how things are doing. I hope you got some support.

@tomytl, hello man I'm still trying to find a room. I don't have much time left to leave my current flat. There is so many things I need to deal with. Landlords, government departments, employement agencies, employers etc. I still suffer so badly but I need to solve some problems such as housing and benefit related stuff.

I hate my life. It feels so surreal still. How about you? I hope you are doing well.

I see, your situation with so many difficult things to manage on top of your condition is really hard.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you!

My condition is also still the same but I get more and more depressed about. My ex-girlfriend is really looking at me and I am very thankful.
Other female friends just can't believe that nothing might help, so they bomb me with some esotheric nonsense stuff... crazy....

Something like this might be hope for us in the longer term, more for you, because you are young.
I really hope, there will be some positive outcomes in their trial starting next year. This would accelerate things to some curable treatments.

Take care my friend and let me know how things are running.

Hi, how are you doing?
I really hope you could arrange things to the better for you.
My ears still doing crazy stuff.
Pressure is a little less, instead tinnitus far louder and thing just sound very strange sometimes.
My nerves are really at the end.

@tomytl, Hello Tom. Everything is more or less the same. I broke up with my gf. I'm going to move to a new room, but that's where the main problem starts, because despite talking to hundreds of people, I couldn't find a rental room. I'm really exhausted.

Finally, I found a place that doesn't offer a contract, but in that case, my benefits are cut off because proving housing expenses officially is only possible with a contract. In short, things have gotten even more complicated for me instead of being resolved. I'm still trying to get rid of this curse. My ear and tinnitus issues are still the same. I don't feel any improvement.

@tomytl, Thanks for asking. How are things going for you?
