your very pretty not smiling. and I know how its is.I just started getting my dental work done. I have no teeth now but there is a smile in my near future. and I hope there is one in your future.
Contact the Department of Labor in your state.
In alot of states, kids can get a work permit so they can get a job at age 15.
When I was 15, I helped out a neighbor lady with cleaning her house. I don't know your living area. But, a good way to start is to ask people in the neighborhood if they could use some help cleaning or babysitting.
That way you could start saving monies to make your dream come true.
Best wishes
in response to Liveituprhody...but i will STILL be ashamed of my teeth UNTIL THEY'RE FIXED .. sorry to say. but just like you cant really help your disorder in a way it is the same with the ashamness of my teeth KINDA CANT HELP THAT! ... i wish i could though..........
in response to Liveituprhody...well, nice to see that your ALSO not what i thought you were.. *bitch* lol. well i understand where your coming from now.. well if you have a facebook, look me up, ill accept you. we'll talk more, i suppose? thanks lol your flattering, i didnt mean to come off like that COMPLETELY esspecially now since i see where your coming from. i can get fighsty when i need too. as you seen. but anyways. lol hit me up ttyl :)
I did not look at your profile to see your age...I am new to this website...not even 24 hours yet. Please do not talk to someone like that...you don't know my/others stability. I understand now that you are 15 now and that was a tough age for me anyways. When I was 15 yes I had braces which my parents did pay for. I was fortunate. I also was getting pummled by that same mother. I had a raging eating disorder which my parents didnt know/care about and was thrilled bc it allowed me to starve myself. I started taking adderall at your age because a girl in my spanish class would get a 10mg tab after lunch and just didn't want to take it. My grades shot up and it supported the not eating diet I was so fond of. I started buying the entire bottle off of her. I am now on 180mg a day. Without it I can't function. Looking at your picture I assumed you were atleast 18..You look older which I am sure you hear a lot. You are beautiful...don't be ashamed of your teeth girl. People that age are cruel. I am sorry I responded to you. I will be more careful when I respond to others. I did not know this website had profiles...I went right to discussion board. Since youre a good looking 15 year old w/ one sweet rack, that message does not apply to you. CLEARLY I was mistaken and I am sorry about that! Smile, fuck everyone else. Get through HS, ignore any remarks if they should come your way by bratty little skanks who are pissed thier bfs are checking you out..they will take low blows, atleast they did in my HS. Anything to get a reaction out of you. I dont know if this applies but if it does try not to get upset. They have an ugly heart and anything ugly about them will just get uglier. you my dear, you will get hotter. total smoke show. HS reunion they will be speechless :)
in response to Liveituprhody...whoah! wait wait wait .... FIRST of all what i can do to make MYself happy is to get my teeth straightened OBVIOUSLY AND, i didnt need the ATTITUDE "babe" second of all im not old enough to get a fucking job "ok".or i WOULD have already gotten one OK?!! .. so dont act like you know me like that cuz you SHO AS HELL DONT!!!!!!!.... im not pointing fingers, and "blaming" people im giving the honest to god truth REASON why i dont have straight teeth "hun", so what makes you think "i" could fix it huh, what, you think i can just wave a magic wand and BOOM im happy HELL TO THE NAWW this is NOT disney world, ok? its reality, so lets get that straight right nah.. bitch you have NO clue how long ive been trying to get a job, but everyone said i was too young, so get the fuck!... and i AM "actively" working towards my dream so dont come with me with that BULL SHIT sayin im NOT.. ha! your real cute you know that.. changing my future? i dont need to change my future. my future needs to get here so i can get a job.... cuz im too young ONCE AGAIN.. if you didnt understand that...thanks for the beautiful comment, and obviously the only changes i want and need to MAKE me happy is GETTING the braces, DUH, well my mother COULD have done all that, because shes AT LEAST old enugh, ok?? but WHAT THE FUCK EVER!!!! u did not help at all.. you just pissed me the FUCK OFF! *deucebag*
Amber, I am sorry you are so sad about your teeth but what can YOU do to make yourself happy? Has blaming them for not providing you with braces actively make a difference towards your goal of straight teeth? No, still nothing has been done. What has been achieved is continuous complaining and pointing fingers at others for something that you could fix. Why don't you walk into a mcdonalds or get on that pole and earn the money you need to get braces? Actively work towards your dream. It may not just fall on your lap, although I too wish they did. You have to work towards changing the future for you can not change the past. Control of your life is now in your hands babe. I know you can do it because you want it so badly. Your hard work will pay off. I think you are beautiful but if you are not happy then you have to make changes. I am not saying become a stripperlike you said your mother could have done for you to aid in the funding of straightening your teeth. However, you would get quick money. Best of luck fik
Dude, i am sooooo serious.... even as im typing this right now just looking at my picture you dont see teeth showin.. do you? its because my teeth are hideous... all i want is a beautiful confident smile.. nothin more... but i cant get it because my parents never "grew up" and got a job.. i mean its not "that" hard i mean c'mon its not that hard to AT LEAST use a lil leg muscle to step inside of mCdonalds.. ugh.. i'd NEVER let my child (if i had one) live in misery, because of me and my choices i'd get my lazy ass up and make something of my self... i mean i k no this isnt the most "decent" thing but if "i" didnt graduate, or dropped out, or didnt go to college etc,,...etc.. id at least be a stripper to give my child what she wanted... but where talking about my teeth here so let me get back on track... yea... im so very depressed, and i see all the kids my age with braces.. (alot of kids have wealthy parents, ok?.) and theres me.. i mean im not fussin bout wealthy part. toooo much im just sayin more a less my ugly hideous teeth, i mean one of the most hurtful times was when i went to BatonRouge,Louisiana to go for an acting audition.. they told me to smile wrote down "something".. and then said "NEXT!". That ruined me , even though i knew i didnt have that "toddler tiara smile".... but life goes on deppresingly until then........ im amber... with a messed up set of teeth and no money and no life.. :(
I do not know how to be happy with my life. I try and try but to know avail. I know that I am the only one who can change my circumstances, but I feel stuck and I just don't have the motivation to do it.
Most of the time, atleast once each day or more I would rather be dead. I think about how easy it would be to start my car in the garage and sit and wait. I pray at night to God to just take me away in my sleep. But every morning I wake up and here I am.
I have a new job that I took because of being unemployed and not much to chose from. You would think that I would be happy about it. After all I am lucky to even be working, right?
I am with a man that I can barely stand. He is a bad person? No. Does he beat me? No. Does he treat me badly? No. I am just not attracted to him or in love with him, but here I am.
You'll all probably think I am nuts. Honestly I'm not. I feel like a failure. I feel like I have little to show for anything in my life.
I have four adult kids. Only 2 of them speaks to me. And with one of the two, it's rare. I live in Florida, three of them live in the midwest and one lives in Italy.
I moved here a year ago due to a 'facebook connection' with an old school friend which I said isn't working for me. I have no friends, although I have tried to make friends.
I feel comfortable expressing my feelings here because none of you know me.
I am sure there are many of you that would say I need to stop... there are so many others out there who have more serious problems than I. And I would agree with you. And believe me, I tell my self that all the time.

in response to thrlr...The fact is.....there is no help, at all......about all we do is keep each other company in our misery! I am just days from losing my power and will not be able to have heat, lights, the ability to keep and/or cook food, and may lose my child as a result, and all I hear is the same old thing. True the world is overwhelmed with problems right now, and everyone who is in this position, like me, I think about always...but that doesn't prevent disasters like I'm going thru now....IT IS HOPELESS< HOPELESS

I have been there since last month, and the only thing I have received is a lot of prayers. I appreciate them, and I respond to all, but, I just can't get the help you say you received from WUAH. It's tough out here right now, and even though I am doing my best to cope, it just isn't enough.....Thanks

responding to your post in June, about the frustration and hopelessness of trying to find help. I am experiencing that first hand right now, as I am bombarded by suggestions to apply for this and apply for that, all of which I have done with little or no help for the situation. Every local, state, and national help agency is just overwhelmed, there are no funds available, etc., etc., Thanks for your response....Thom
in response to thrlr...hello - sorry just wondering what comment u were responding to... I'm trying to keep track of those who respond to me specifically... sorry to bother and Thank you!

I, totally, agree with you 199%! The fact of the matter is that there is very little, if any, help out there for those that truly need it, whether it be money help, food, clothing, etc.. Every agency in this country is simply overwhelmed by the current economy, and the sad part is that it just keeps getting worse! For those looking for work, there is nothing, but, spammers and scammers trying to take your money, and if there are any real jobs, there are 1000 people applying for one position. God bless you and the luck of the Irish to you, on this St. Patty's Day!
The world today is a cruel and unforgiving place. There simply is no help out there for those that truly need it. If there is, it is extremely difficult to find, if not impossible. Those of us who are unable to find the necessary assistance, will simply fall further thru the cracks, and eventually not exist, at least, so far as the government and the rich elite are concerned. True, there may be a very few individuals, and some agencies, who are trying, but, they are overwhelmed.
I'm sorry that you lost your job with Verizon. As much money as I pay to Verizon Wireless each month, they shouldn't be in a position to layoff anyone EVER. I have an idea that may help you and wanted to ask if you be interested in trying to get your job back with Verizon. This is a long shot, but I have the email addresses of several corporate contacts at Verizon, including the CEO. I would like to help you write a letter to Verizon and see if they would be willing to find another position for you at the company. There's no guarantee that this will be successful, but it never hurts to try. Also, regarding your transportation problem, please look into and sign up for http://www.freecharitycars.org/. This is a website that works by generating votes to increase your chances to receive help, including a free charity car. I'm currently a member of the website, not to receive a free charity car, but to support others who need one. My profile name is SNet773911. Please add me to your friends list if you join so that I can support you.
I'm a 44 year old male,I have worked all my life.MI live in the state of Maine.I was living and working in the state of Florida,I worked for Verizon making good money.The second year down there my brother and his wife were having problems and I suggested they move to Florida and start over,I opened my doors to the and they took me for a ride.I did not relize they were heavy into pills and owing many people money for drugs thet took my offer to move down to Florida.Here al this time me not knowing the real problem they were having.I was told by them they were having problems with there relationship,and not drugs.after two years of the taking from me,not working and staeling what ever they could from me to sell at the pawn shop for drugs.i eventually had them removed from my home by the police.This left me in great debt.I was laid off by Verizon in 2009,and collected unemployment.so I decided to move back to Maine were the cost of living is cheaper.I was cut off of unemployment this month,leaving me in debt again.I do now collect food stamps and I look for work 10 day a week.Being without transpotation makes it had to look for work.I am a hard worker and do take care of my prorities.i want to work but the econmy is so bad know I am beginning to give up.I'm doing all I can to keep my rental,but my lanlord needs to be payed.The city I live in eill help with rent at 90 dollars a week but does not help with arrears.i am on a payment plan with the light company but am now falling behind.I have exhausted all my efforts with local charities helping with what they can.I am afraid of becomming homeless.I'm not looking for people to pay my way,I can and will work when i find a job.I have never been in this kind of down fall in my life.I'm just not sure what to do.My brothe and wife are living here in Maine and have taken care of there drug problem and now work,they both have good jobs and make good money but hold a grudge against me for tossen them out when they lived with me in florida.I'm not saying they owe me anything,but they wont give me a penny.Thats ok,i live and learn.i now no how to say no to people,it is hard because my past history of working is in homeless shelters for men woman and children.i am a compassionate person and would help anyone in need,but i need to take care of myself now.I can only hope that there was a angel to help me out in this slump I'm in.I would do anthing to have a job.I just need a little help and as I said not sure who to turn to or ask for help.thank you reading this,and can only hope and pray that a miracle will happen.
I am feeling hopeless because my son and I have to move in two days, I broke up with my boyfriend, and I can't stand Idaho. I'd only leave if I met a rich man who loved kids, and who loved me. lol I wonder if there are any good hearted men left... Not in Idaho! Anyways, I'm trying to remain hopeful and in good spirits for the holidays. I just got out of a domestic violence shelter, and am having a hard time adjusting to our new life. I just need some hope, maybe send your friend an e-mail about this hot single chick who needs to be rescued from idahell! Or not, I'm independent enough to make it on our own. I feel really bad for my son because he had just asked my ex to be his Dad. He has never had one and he's ten. Man I feel bad. Thanks for listening! Merry Christmas

We all feel that way from time to time. Helpless, frustrated, angry, depressed... Sometimes we get so angry because things do not work out the way we think they should. Sometimes we wonder how much more can we take? How much more do we have to sacrifice just to get by?But you cannot give up.
Get angry, vent, and get moving.
ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.
here's what I would suggest:
From what I read of your post, your biggest concern is transportation. The nearest pharmacy is 3 miles! So you are in a pretty rural area. Rather than trying to get to your doctors and appointments on a regular basis - without dependable transportation - why not consider re-locating yourself so you are closer to these facilities?
Since you are already receiving disability - you may qualify for subsidized housing. Subsidized housing is based on your income, therefore you would only pay a portion of what you normally pay. Most times they are hanicapped accessible and near public transportation and other necessary facilities. The drawback? The waiting list. In some cases, it can take a very long time to get into these places - others, not so much. But you won't know unless you ask!
Another option are senior apartments - these are apartments designed just for senior living. Some provide assisted living, others are independent. Some take govt subsidizing , other do not. Some take residents as young as 50, others, you have to be older - so you would have to do some checking. Most do have the same features (or more) that govt subsidized housing has. Again, there may be a waiting list.
Start with HUD- they may be better able to assist you in your search should you choose to go this route.
Also check with the Maine Dept of aging - for more information and resources
here you can search for assisted living facilities in your area - although you may not be ready for that option, you can see what is available and what may/maynot be suitable for your needs.
I also have links to other nonprofit organizations around the country on my home page that may be more suitable to what you are looking for.
We all wish someone would drop a sack of cash in our laps. Unfortunately,that rarely happens. My questions to you is: even if the car were fixed for now, would that prevent future problems? WE are all looking for an immediate fix, but sometimes the short term answer doesn't solve the long term problem. Its kind of like putting a bandaid on a broken leg - not really effective is it? If you can find the source of the problem, and a workable, permanent solution, you might just be happier in the long run.
I hope this has been helpful and I do hope you find the solution to your needs.
in response to whoknew...you are very right i was feeling very helpless and frustated when i wrote that yes there are many on this sight out of the goodness of there hearts are offering help the only way they can and yes thats through research and offering ideas i bless all those people for there time truthfully i made myself think someone would magically come along and offer to fix my car foolish thinking on my part i know those kinda things dont really happen again i say i wrote out of frustration and to all you out there giving what you can to the people at this sight i say im so sorry i ask you your forgivness and god bless you for giving all that you can give to those looking for the info they dont have and may truly need again i will say im sorry for speaking out in frustration it was very wrong of me god bless you all deb

A Joke? No angels? False hope?
I'm not sure what you are looking for - but I'm sorry you were not able to find what you needed, here. Many people on aidpage spend what little spare time they have, researching and compiling information and replying to people in need. Many times, this is a thankless position to be in. But they do it because they know there is help out there and they know that anything is possible. I wish you the best and hope you ultimately find what you are looking for.
i came to this sight praying there truly was aid joke i should have known that a few people have giving me words of hope but hope is not what i need help is what i need ive studied the sight and have found no one that has recieved aid yes maybe suggestions but most of us have already tried all paths out there from local to gov were here to touch the heart of someone that out of the kindness of there hearts and in the name of god are willing to do a good deed i wish i could be someone in the possition to do those deeds for someone so in need and to be able to lay my head down at night with a full heart but no the aid sight is not wheres its going to happen prayers to all out there that wished and prayed for that special someone that would step up and say hey i will help you out there are no angels here just false hope sadly god bless you all i pray all of you find yours needs fulfilled some where prayers to all deb
God has kept me here for a reason. I survived because He has a plan for me. All my bad relationships, the bad credit, the repossessions, the death of my loved ones, the back stabbing from my friends, the negative thoughts, or the lack of support; I made it because I am blessed! I release and let go of all past hurts, misunderstandings and grudges because I am blessed! I recognize them as the illusions they are, for God is all there is. All else is a lie! Now give yourself a hug, wipe your tears and walk in victory!!
I love you, but more appropriately God loves you best. Be blessed and know that you are at one with The Spirit of The Living God!!!!
I know what you are going threw, It is painful that there is not better Medical Care for People like us that need Dental intervention, I have a bone infection in my face. That has required over 50 face and Brain surgery's. I lost my smile.
It has been devastating to my self esteem, I tried Dentures However I have no bone to hold them up. In order for me to have my smile back, I have to have a surgery where they take hip bone to build up my mouth and then individual teeth made and screwed into the bone, Insurance does not cover that.
So many people take for granted there smile and other don't realize that not all People who don't have teeth are not Drug addicts, People Judge you in 5 sec and for some reason if you don't have beautiful teeth which I use to have and a beautiful smile, The snub There Nose. You live in Florida You are lucky Because There's a Mayo Clinic there and because you are a resident of Florida they may Help You with a grant, I have scars on my face and my looks have changed greatly, It makes sad to see all the People who can afford Plastic surgery,, To Change there looks, When I would Be so blessed to just Look like myself again, I don't want to be any one I am not, So if you hear of someone that helps Please let me know and If there a Dr out there You would be giving a gift of my face back, I will let you know if I find out some place that may help you. May we Both Be Blessed with Our own Smiles again,
I believe God will find the Right Doctor for Both of us and we will be lead to us,

I'm told i need ALL my teeth pulled, a bone added and implants or dentures And their not sure how successful it'll be). Im so depressed. This problem has completly change the person i am. And also held me back on alot of things in life. I have an 10 month old son, move back with parents. I want to start college,work, and GROW UP. but i have to have this crazy surgery, and my dad wants me out the house. I just don't know where to go for help. Im at a state of hopelessness.
My husband and i finaly had well paying jobs and could have gotten ourselfs our own home for the first time. but then his mother asked us to live with her and help her keep the house, because he no good rotten husband doesnt do anything but abuse her. So we agreed, and we were paying close to $1,000 a month not including our own bills. then 3 weeks later, after all that we have done for her and her daughter, she kicks us out with no where to go and no jobs. so now in a week we are going to be homeless...

I make decent money, been in the same career for almost 15 years. My problem is, with child support, marital debt, poor housing market, reduced bonusses at work due to economy, I am in over my head. I have worked up a detailed budget analysis and the outlook is grim. My house is worth $30,000 less than I owe. I've been trying to sell it since February '07. My truck is worth $6000 less than I owe. My minimum monthly payments going out each month are roughly $1500 more than money coming in, and there is no end in sight. I live a meager lifestyle spending money on just the basic necessities. I have racked up almost $30,000 in unsecured, high interest (some @ 30% APR) debt just staying afloat, waiting for my house to sell. It is all about to fall apart, and my 6 and 3 year olds, of whom I split custody 50-50, are going to see their father have a breakdown. My counselor scratches his head along with me, trying to find a credit-saving way out - there just isn't one. If I sold my house to break even, I could move in with a relative for a year and turn things around. If I could sell it for a loss, I'd do it if there were a way to release the lien. I just don't have any answers. Maybe someone here does?

Last December, I was a happy girl attending Empire Beauty School. It was my dream and even though how I got to achieve that dream was through misfortune (a car accident settlement), it still made me happy to know that I didn't have to go to a four year school and pay 20K plus to major in a vague subject. Unfortunately, I had to give up my dreams of becoming a stylist due to the financial burden (the school wanted $500.00 a month!).
Then, the credit card offers came into play. Having never been taught budgeting or money management and being unemployed, I was prey for the creditors. I applied with every offer I got and was approved for 7 cards. Not having guidence, I racked up over $3,000.00 in debt! I know now that the purpose of having credit is for the rewards and simplicity of not carrying cash. I also know now what a FICO Score is and how to screw one up in no time at all. Now I believe that credit cards are only good when you have the money amount you're spending.
Next in line is hospital bills! I have no medical insurance and no way to get some. My charity care just ran out and I owe the local hospital $1,000.00!
I am in collections all over the place. I'm trying extremely hard to get a job, but I haven't had any luck thus far.I already went to 6 interviews and I can't even afford to look the part. I have no license or car, no friends, no local family, and I'm giving up on life. I feel like I'm slowly sinking into homelessness. My depression grows each day and I often wish I were dead. It sounds dumb, but money really does make the world go round! I can't pay my rent and utilities and I'm not eligible for a loan. I'm too poor to get help but not poor enough yet to be in a national geographic style ad. I'm trying to sell my possessions to live. My mother is permanently disabled and thus jobless and my father hasn't seen me in over 6 yrs, lives 500 miles away, and doesn't care to. All of my grandparents are dead, I don't have any kids, and I'm not married...so, I really see a way that I can survive. I really wanna die, but I'm hopin' some kind soul can help me first. I can break down all the bills I owe further if need be. Please help me to be the girl in that picture; the girl I am inside. I used to care about my appearance. Now I care only about where my next $2.00 for some oddles n' noodles is coming from. If you believe in God or a god, then know that if you help me he will see and in turn you will be helped in your time of need. Please pay it forward! I could write a book on every insane detail, but time is of the esscense for most so if you want to know anything else please feel free to ask me.
I'm a 35 year old male in the kansas city,ks area. in 2005 I suffered my sencond stroke which now my left side of my body a great weakness. I'm not use to being down like this, I had a steady day job for ten years and useally had a 2 job at nights. I was always the first one when anyone in my family,or friends needed help with anything I was there. I never had to worry about money because 2 jobs I had money. After the stroke everything went down hill, my wife was gone, the money was never around, Iwas left lost not being able to work. This caused me to try taking my own life twice in the summer of 2006 which I was placed in a state hospital. there I was diagnosed Bi Polar. I haven't recived my disablity yet, even though after I released from the hospital after my stroke I did get a disiablity check for three months right away( the doctors started my disablity paper work before release) the goverment took the money away. Now all I recive is $130 cash asst. & 155 food stamps a month from srs,& that is running out.I have been deniaed ssi 3 times now . I'm at the court hearing stage & I been waiting already 10 months for that to happen Legal aid jump on my case right away. I did get public housing just lately. I feel hopeless, confused. I use to work for my uncle when I was 16 at his homeless/abused women shelter in missouri. It puts me in a deep state of depression being this helpless, I remeber when I had cell phones, top of the line computers,food, places to go and my own way to get there.

I'm not use to being down like this, I had a steady day job for ten years and useally had a 2 job at nights. I was always the first one when anyone in my family,or friends needed help with anything I was there. I never had to worry about money because 2 jobs I had money.
