Losing my mind

It's crazy, and it's becoming crazier 😧. I can't deal with it anymore.

I have been totally exhausted both mentally and physically and emotionally, the fact that I can't afford what I want is making me lose my mind.

I have not been active for two days now because I have been on this house hunting and nothing about it has made me happy at all.

!

Not just me, a good number of people cannot afford to get a comfortable home in this town again.

The worst of it all is that the Government is not interested in what people are going through in their country instead they create lots of revenue from landlords and this has made the landlords increase rents for the masses not minding if they can afford it or not.

Yesterday was crazy.

I spent all my life yesterday on house Hunting, the agents are not even helping matters they only think about how to fill their pocket not how to help the client, at some point yesterday a lady couldn't hold her tears 😭 because there was no hope of getting something good for her and she has just few days to vacate from her current house.

Why the rush

Lately there was so many demolition of buildings in different areas which has left thousands of occupants homeless and has increased the want of houses.

This new year thousands of people relocated to the state for greener pasture and these ones will also need a house, sadly the new buildings are not affordable only the rich can afford it.

Imagine paying over 70$ per month while your income is not up to 50$ how will that be possible, and many people in the country don't earn above 50$ per month, it's a very difficult situation right now.

Landlords and caretakers too are not reasonable enough to help the masses, someone was arrested yesterday because he rented an apartment to someone and still sold the house to another person, all they care about is money nothing more than money.

I came back exhausted and I felt for everyone who are in need of houses this season because it will be very difficult for them to get something good.

Maybe I should relocate to my village and become a farmer there, I can still make some money to take care of myself and my family, I know some people will see it as a bad idea but to me, that's the next thing I can do , I can't leave under the bridge.

That's my predicament, I just felt like putting it down here, I can even think of what to write and because am mentally exhausted.

Sending love and positive energy your way. I don't know where you live or your situation but I can relate to what your saying. I was poor for the first 20 years of my life and had to learn to survive on very little resources. At least our government was able to provide some support but that did not stop some well off people to bully our family because we were poor.

Wishing you the best in your journey.

Thank you so much, I live in Nigeria and there is no sign of help from the government so that makes it more difficult, but we will keep putting effort and doing our best.
