I'm Abigail, and I'm 18 years old. I moved to this city a year ago after my parents split up. My mom and I had to move because of financial reasons. We had to sell our house and most of our belongings just to make ends meet. Since then, we've been living in a small apartment with not much space for me to breathe.
I'm angry because I feel like I have no control over my life right now. I want to go back to school and pursue my dreams but it feels like everything is stacked against me. I feel like I'm just another statistic, another teenage girl who doesn't have a chance at making something of herself.
I'm lying in bed because that's all I can afford right now. My mom works two jobs to keep us afloat but it's not enough. We barely have enough food on the table and no money for rent. We're struggling, and I feel like there's nothing I can do about it.
I know things will get better eventually, but right now, it feels like they'll never change. I just need someone to talk to, someone who understands how I feel.
