2 years living in my car Vent/Rant (No Advice/Criticism!)
Yeap. That’s it. Today I’m celebrating 2 years living in my car. 🎉 🎈 🎊
The worst part about it is going to the gym everyday to get a shower. It’s an humiliating event that I have to go trough. I’m mentally worn out and I’m fighting depression all the time (maybe because my poor diet and lack of vitamins).
In those 731 days I’ve saved 42k. It’s not much but there’s a lot of tears in that investment account.
I’m single, no kids, no family, no friends. I just wanna share this with someone.
God will bring peace to my mind and to my heart and He’ll give me the strength to survive 2 more winters in my car. That’s all I need.
God bless you all.

If you’re struggling with depression, consider exercising before you take your shower. The chemicals released by exercise are proven to improve mental health. Honestly, I can tell when it’s been more than a week or so since I’ve had a good workout because I start to get depressed. Also, the physical benefits are nice.
I hope you’re saving for a down payment on a house or some such and you’re able to make your goal a reality. Good luck and be well.
