    Hey all,

    I'm afraid this will turn more into a rant than anything else but I really need to get this all off my chest.

    A while ago I moved to Ireland because life in my old country wasn't the right thing for me and I simply loved the country. I know by now that I moved pretty unprepared and that there could have been many things I could have done better but that doesn't matter now.

    I admit I imagine dit too easy....I thought finding a job would work out and of course, considering the current economic situation, it didn't quite that easily. I never trie dto get on the dole as I didn't move to depend on welfare like that. I managed by getting help from my family and partner and somehow life went on. However, I have made depts in these months that I don't know how to handle. I've always been an honest person and I don't want to change that now.

    After months of looking I finally found a job that I actually like but of course the problems don't just disappear like that. While I will get a decent wage at the end of June and things will certainly get better then, I am in a deep DEEP pinch right now. I have no money whatsoever. I need to pay rent and deposit for a new house and I don't know how. My family that is in the country is too far away from my new job to have me stay otherwise I would. Also, they don't have money to help me right now and neither has my partner's family. We have no food at all and I just don't know where to turn to anymore.

    It all just keeps crashing down. I have to pay the rent until tomorrow and I have no idea how to handle all this. I'm 27 and feel like an old woman right now. I am afraid of slipping into depression and I am desperately trying to fight it.

    people at work are great and very supportive but they can't help either. I don't know how to get over the next 3 weeks...I'm at my end....

    Really sorry for the rant. I don't expect hugs and pity...I really just needed to get things off my chest....

    Go to the Community/Social Welfare Officer. Go to the St Vincent de Paul. You need immediate help just for a short time, but do something NOW. - or first thing tomorrow!
