Today, I got a housekeeping warning from my landlord. After struggling with multiple serious health issues, I’ve also been dealing with a horrible case of depression as a result. When I tried to explain this to the manager, she decided to get the county involved and try to have me committed. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I’m massively depressed and I live in a state that will prosecute you for attempted suicide, but will do nothing to help you afford mental health. FML
Today, I had to attend a telephone hearing with my landlord, regarding debt and other things. I spent two weeks getting my defence ready. I was prepared and had so much against him. He dropped all complaints but the debt. I had proof it should be reduced or reassessed. He still won and I can’t afford the payments. FML
Today, I was told the reason for me getting evicted without notice is because I unnecessarily threw a fit that the dog my roommate got wasn't the one I wanted. I pointed out my anaphylaxis to my landlord and she asked, "That’s hypochondria, right?" I’m still getting evicted without notice. FML
Today, in the middle of a pandemic, which has made it impossible for me to get a job for the last 4 months, my landlord has decided the one thing I need is a rental increase. FML
Today, I'm on the verge of losing my job because of my poor mental health. I've been on a wait list for therapy/psych services for over a year already. My boss's response was, "It can't be that bad, just stop thinking about it." I have PTSD, OCD, BPD, ADHD, bipolar depression and anxiety. FML
Today, my pill-popping mom, committing disability fraud and stealing from me, called the cops on me, and dragged the landlord into it, is now getting both of us evicted. All this because she'd rather live homeless with her drug problem than to get the help she needs, which I can't provide anymore after 10 years. FML
Today, my bitch mother informed me I have two weeks to find a new place to live. When I said she legally has to give me thirty days, she said she doesn’t because I refuse to pay rent as an adult. I have schizophrenia, obesity, and I’m not obligated to pay her rent. FML
Today, I spent my remaining cash on a doctor's visit, only to find out that at the age of 22, I'm getting major health problems brought on by stress. I came home to relax, only to find out my roommate can't pay his rent, and needs me to cover for him so we don't get evicted. FML
Today, my shrink diagnosed me as severely depressive, due to a lot of stress and yells at home. After the session, my parents argued about whose fault it was and then went on to yell at me for being depressive and wasting their money. FML
Today, my husband has a chronic illness and can't work. We have 2 special needs kids who need a lot of assistance. Rent continues to go up and went up this year $570 for a total of $1800. I've taken up a second job to make ends meet, but it's increasing my depression. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

doing a little is better than nothing. but see if you can't afford housecleaning for a couple of weeks, or at least the first time :)

She's probably depressed, too. It's likely she could rent your place for a lot more than the measly amount you are paying. Getting you out of the way might help her get over the blues.

Have you COMMITTED? For depression? What year is this? 1903? I’m sorry that people can be so heartless. Be careful—folks like your building’s manager will torment their tenants as much as they can get away with. I’ve lived in multiple places lorded over by weasels like her.

I truly feel for you, I do but if you are living in an apartment, keeping up with housekeeping is for the health and benefit of *everyone* in the building. If you rent a house, then they are interested in not having their house wrecked and I understand that, too. Sometimes cleaning up a bit at a time actually helps depression. Best of luck in your situation.

I have depression too and I find writing lists of small and achievable tasks helps. So dishes, wipe down bench, pick up dog toys, throw out rubbish, sweep the floor, washing etc. It makes a mountain of a job much easier and takes how overwhelming it can be out of it. There is services and medication to help with depression. If it's at the point it is so bad and you know you're bad reach out to them.

If the place is a mess nobody really cares why. Clean it up.
