I have been hesitant to make this post for awhile because I don’t really want to put all my stuff out there…and I won’t put all of it…but I’m in a sticky situation right now and could use some help.
I’m a trans, jewish person looking to relocate from my city because of an abusive ex partner who has been making my life hell and will continue to. He’s done things like have multiple people contact me on his behalf, blocked my dog license from being approved, has kept me from getting jobs, etc. I don’t feel safe. I have been trying to relocate for over a year to get away and I finally have an opportunity now. But it’s expensive to get there.
I have 2 jobs and I’m trying my best to absorb as many relocation costs as possible but the costs are increasing and my support sources are tapped out at the moment and I just need a bit of help…I feel a lot of shame for having to ask again but until I find another option I’m not sure what to do.
I also am a graphic designer with years of experience in brand design if anyone needs those services or knows someone who does I would be happy to provide them in exchange for donations.
Thank u sm for reading I really appreciate it.

Hi guys I’m so sorry to do this but I’ve been struggling so much keep my bank out of the negative due to all my bills. After a friend gave me money to pay off my trash service I was hit with my doctor on demand fee. Since I don’t have insurance they make me pay 129$ to see my psychiatrist and that’s why I’ve not been having regular meetings with her.
So now I’m really in need of help. my account is only 50$ overdraft right now and honestly I just need enough to stop it from being that way. I don’t get paid again till the 5th and I’ll even pay you back if you need me to. I’m so sorry to do this but I’ve been struggling to stay afloat since I’m the only one in my household paying the bills we have.
you can find me on paypal
I think after seeing so many posts from The Artwork Challenge has inspired me to do this hahahaha For those who do not know what this challegue is about, it is: Pick a piece of visual artwork (sculpture, painting, illustration) and re-create it in one of the sims games. This is not an artwork in particular, but emerged based on the Challengue <3

and if you are someone, like before, who feels the need to send anons telling me about how annoying it is to see my asking for assistance;
reflect on yourself. and get a life my dude
Some simple truths I learned about simblr (from my experience)
It is okay to start big projects like a legacy, a story, a challenge etc. But it’s also okay not to finish them for whatever reason you have, even if you just got bored of them. You don’t even have to make excuses or apologize for it - we are all people, and those who matter will understand. Be spontaneous and don’t make long-term plans if you feel like you can’t handle them - do whatever makes you happy right now.
I used to think I’m posting for fun, but I wasn’t, for this exact reason: I was starting a lot of things and was fixated on finishing everything. Instead of posting/doing what I wanted at the moment (and I have changes of heart pretty often, it’s hard for me to stick to one thing), I pressured myself to complete some stuff first (e.g. a certain legacy generation) simply not to leave it hanging, even if I wasn’t inspired for it anymore. I won’t even mention that editing/drafting/sharing it on your blog also takes plenty of energy, and I constantly felt the need to update my queue. It became more of an “god, I still have to finish this legacy and post it…” than “I want to play this legacy!”. This, among other things, led to a huge burnout that affected my ability to play and enjoy it properly, and it’s a shame because sims is supposed to be a hobby and not a chore.
Your followers really won’t die if you stop posting a certain save or pause your posting in general, even if they absolutely loved it. And you’re not obliged to finish it if you don’t want to - you won’t get a medal for, say, reaching gen 10 of the legacy or completing some challenge. Your mental well-being comes first.
Speaking of challenges, you don’t have to follow all of its rules. It’s your gameplay, you can adjust it however you like, and there’s no challenge police that will come and tell you that you failed.
Listen to yourself. Sometimes you may have some ambitious idea that you want to bring to life, but ask yourself: realistically, how many of your resources will it take? Is it worth it, or maybe there can be an alternative, more relaxed thing that you can do? (e.g. less generations, a smaller story, time skips etc.)
It’s also okay to take breaks and play/post whenever you feel like it. I used to worry about people unfollowing while I’m not posting, but I started taking unfollows less seriously - it means these people are simply not your audience, and it’s okay. There will always be others.
POV based on a true story: you’re posting something and not really enjoying it, but you feel like your followers may be. But, chances are, they don’t even need it that much either, and you’re burning yourself out for no reason.
It may be hard, but try not to engage with anonymous hate or people who are provoking you. They are cowards hiding behind the screen without any consequences. As I learned, it will only make you feel worse to get involved into debates with them, because their purpose is to make you feel bad, not to listen to your point of view. Happy and confident people don’t go around spreading hate or accusations, so don’t let them tarnish your enjoyment.
No amount of stressing over notes, trying to follow popular trends and impress the public will ever replace genuine joy in doing what your heart wants and sharing it with those who care most. In the end, this is all that matters.
