Question about rent increase?
I've lived in my apartment for 2 and a half years, now in a government apartment (highrise) and live in a small studio apartment by myself. When I moved in i didnt have an income so i wasn't paying rent and did community service. I've had two jobs since and they were only part time so i just paid a minimum of $50 a month. I was told that anytime i got a job or quit or lost a job to report it to the manager in my building but they've never went into detail until this year, when they raised my rent from $50 to $275 in a months spand. I've been working part time at Dollar General since April of last year and ive told my hours aren't always the same. And after i talked to them about my rent increase the landlord in my building told me they made a mistake in my file and that was rent was supposed to increase and that i lucked out. They told me i had this thing called HUD, and i recently found out the goverment shut it down in January and that's when they were going to going to raise my rent but didn't give me a notice until March. Would i technology still qualify for HUD? I have $375 for rent and owe $775. They told me even if i quit or lost my job they cant go backwards.
4 AnswersRenting & Real Estate2 years agoIs it possible to get rid of Schrizophrenia without medication?
I wasn’t diagnosed with Schrizophrenia, I do have an appointment with a Faith Counseler in a few days. When I told the receptionist my symptoms they sounded a lot like Schrizophrenia symptoms and she said she experienced the same thing and hers was caused by built up stress. I’ve had a rough year last year, I thought people were giving me weird to looks everywhere I went, to a random guy off the steet telling me I was drugged and used to be a singer to me accusing my family of thinking there was something wrong with me. Is there any kind of meditation I could use because i don’t know how much longer I can take this. I want to believe my family when they tell me I’m healthy but I want to actually feel healthy. Also, some of the symptoms I’m experiencing are hallucinations and imagining things that aren’t real and don’t exist.

Okay, so my parents raised me in church since I was 3. I stopped going when I got older, and just recently reached out to God I felt like my life was going down the wrong path. I started smoking cigarettes and pot. & hanging out with the wrong people. I had cut him out of my life completely and now that hes back in I think the devil might be attacking me spiritually. I walk down the street, or I'm just sitting on my porch and I notice cars going back and forth just watching me. I go into stores, and I can feel tension. I get dirty looks and my family keep telling me its all in my head, and I'm trying to stop this. Has anyone experienced this before? If so what did you do? Serious answers only please because I want my life back on track, and this is making it harder. Thank you.

9 AnswersReligion & Spirituality4 years agoBeing followed by cars?
Hello, I noticed that everywhere I go cars are driving back and forth watching me. This is when I'm walking , when I'm in the car with my friends and family. At home too mostly, id be inside and I won't hear any cars but as soon as I go out to leave somewhere or just to have a smoke they'll just randomly pop out of nowhere. This isn't in my head my friend has noticed it too. Should I go to the police?
8 AnswersMaintenance & Repairs4 years agoHow to ask your parents to pay you back without it turning it into an argument. Please and thank you.??????
Hello, I m 22 years old and I have my own apartment and job. My parents occasionally ask me for money, and tell me they ll pay me back and I always help them with no hesitation. One month my mom called me and asked me if I could pay both her and my dad s bill and altogether it was 120. So I did, the month after that they asked if I could lend them 90 for just my dad s bill, a few days after that they asked me if I could lend my little brother $5 and that "they" will pay me back. & just last month, my older brother got himself an apartment my mom called me and asked me if I could lend her $40 for the rest and that she d pay me back. Still to this day, they haven t paid me back for any of it. I m so broke right now and could definitely use the money and I m worried that if I ask, they ll make a big deal, and call me greedy like they usually do. So can someone please give me advice on the situation, itll greatly be appreciated.

2 AnswersOther - Careers & Employment4 years agoBoyfriend cheated, the sex is rough and idk why?
I had reasons to believe my boyfriend was cheating, but when we got back together these past few weeks feel different. It's not just his attitude or whatever its the sex, we used to have sex all the time, so it never hurt, we just spent 2 months apart, and sex hurts everytime, it feels like he's going a lot deeper than usual, like the person he's been having sex with is a lot looser than me because I'm super tight and he knows that, but its like he's forgotten so I'm just curious could it be that its going to take awhile for my body to go back to how it used to or could it be from him cheating?

4 AnswersOther - Family & Relationships5 years agoMy boyfriends mom is sexual with my boyfriend?
If I'm in laying in his bed she'll throw on a skimpy short rode & lay their to provactly while she talks to him. She uses stupid excuses to get him away from me like helping her open blinds, & download stuff to her computer's, cooks dinner for him, cooking dinner is fine but to wait on him hands and feet is odd especially if he complains she'll take his **** like some wife's would. She's giving me the impression he was molested by her sexual behavior. His dad wasn't in the picture so shes using him to play her husband role & would guilt trip him into staying home & not moving out. He bought her brand new tires, pays the bills, bought a new dryer for their house as if they were together. Help?
