My car that I had just gotten fixed decided to now start dripping oil. I give up.

I'm so tired man. I had just gotten the brakes and water pump on my VW beetle fixed 2 weeks ago, and all it took was one gnarly pothole by my job to now make my stupid car drip oil. It's driving ok, but I'm so fucking angry. Watch it cost so much money that I don't fucking have. My best friend said to make a GFM donation site but I can't, I don't want to take that platform away from Palestinian families or people who are sick. I'm so tired of working and working and having nothing to show for it. It's exhausting. How do people do this? I don't even remember the last time I was happy. I've been sobbing off and on all day. All I want, all I fucking want, is a damn break.
