Should I just accept poverty

I’m money dependent from abusive family…
It escalated yesterday, as they acted very rudely to me, insults and etc, just because they give me hundred bucks. It pays bills.
Today I asked my father for ten bucks for food, and he said good bye and hang up.
I called everyone I know, but nobody was willing to give me money for FOOD!
At the end, managed to borrow, but I’m already in depts.
I have no one, not even my brother wants to help me.
But it’s not about money. They just continue to be toxic due help they give, all their frustrations end at me…
I pray I could do something, used to sell books before covid, now I’m not in condition.
I’m on a bread and butter all day…
What to do?
Social worker told me it’s impossible to get more money.
I have 150$ a month, and bills are hundred.

Oh no @anon42606141
I didn’t know that your situation was this bad!

Can you go on disability somehow or get help and aid from a charitable organization?

Bro it sounds like youre going through a lot man. Im so sorry to hear this brother. I unserstand what youre going through, i know people can be bullies when you have a mental illness. Ive gone through a similar thing but it sounds like youre suffering a lot. God will reward you for your good deeds if you accept it in his name, then it becomes a blessing.

There is enough food on this planet for everyone to have enough, but because people are greedy and keep most of it to themselves others suffer. Maybe you can start a gofundme.com account ? Or just ask random people outside of chuches once a week? Blessings to you brother for you patience, its not fair but youre growing in virtue by your patience.

I was desperate today, and wanted to share this, but it’s hard to explain what I’m going through…
Once I told my father Im going to eat at church kitchen if I don’t get money, and he said dress like you are a bum, they’ll give you for sure…

Rice and pasta are filling and ultra cheap if you’re looking for a short term solution.

I’m so sorry that your family are like this.

What do you mean by ditching them?
No you shouldn’t refuse their money.
Swallow your pride.

You need to live and have a roof over your head.

But still, look for a job in the meantime!
