Seems like things go from bad to worse.

Ever  had one of those days when you want to kill the postman. Everything was sailing along sort of fine and whammo…My thieving landlord is now determined to stop me eating all in the name of profit. How am I supposed to find another £50 a month.. That’s an increase in my rent of £155 a month in the last year. It wouldn’t be so bad if he had actually done something about the broken heating, the condemned wiring and the leaking roof, but he hasn’t. Fuck it.. I just give up. If I leave there will be either a gas leak or a major electrical fault. The bastard has bled me of cash this year so that I am at the point of not having enough money to move. With all this and being ill I don’t know where to turn any more. I heard a good and dark thing tonight on some film or other. “death is a road we all have to take someday, yet it’s not the end..just a different path. Then this grey rainswept world clears and becomes silver light” or something like that.

I was hoping a friend was going to come and stay for a while next week, but now it seems not. I’m feeling very isolated and alone here. Maybe they will come soon, but if not I don’t know what I will do. It’s hard to say that you need somebody, but I have no family and very few friends (actually in this town I have no friends).. Notice the time again. It’s always very early morning when I post.. I’m back in the darkness where I hide from everything. Maybe I’ll have another attempt at sleeping, I had to get out of bed because I was crying on my own in the dark, and after 2 hours of that I really had enough of it. I’m not sure what I was so upset about. Maybe I should have another attempt at seeing my useless doctor, the one who makes me wait 6 weeks for an appointment, or perhaps another attempt like last time that actually resulted in getting to talk to somebody about the way I’m feeling and what I can do to try and get out of this hole!! Nah..forget it..can’t be bothered. It didn’t help anything last time so this time isn’t going to be any different.

    Evil landlords are still very up and about it seems :/…

    Heh all my 3 irl friends are like 5 hours away from me (>o_o)

    Life is just so lonely and painful at times.
    Where is prince charming (or princess) that can save you and understand you :S

    All I can say is loneliness and feeling very down, you are not alone with that (>..)>

    Sigh financial problems, at least you aren’t robbed as often as us and under threat? :(

    Bah, more bad news eh. Sorry to hear things are still going from bad to worse for you.
    Talking can help a bit I guess, isolation does tend to make one feel even worse. ~.~

    Sometimes I just need to dump this stuff and get on with life. It’s a form of thinking aloud that I was taught many years ago. I wish my friend was coming tomorrow..I really miss them and can’t wait to hear from them towards the end of the week. Times are bad..because of illness I’m unable to work again, and the rent increase (3 times in 18 months) is the final straw. This sort of thing is actually illegal, but as these thieving landlords have worked out…keep us on unsecure 6 months tenancies and we have no rights and no protection under the law. Taking legal advice because I have lived here for more than 4 years.. Legally I have posession and am supposed to have some status as a sitting tenant, even if I refuse to pay any more rent whatsoever. That’s my plan..not another cent and save up enough to move….then wreck the place (well put it back to the derelict state it was when I took it on.) I’m positive today, but for how long it will last?????
