: : I hate this. I know I need help, I can't do things alone. But I can't do it. I can't ask people to help me, even though I need to, and it would be in my best interests. I don't like where I'm at, and I don't know where the world else to go, but I don't want to ask anyone for "help" either, because all it will do is make me look and feel like a total ass hole.
: : I wish I had someone I could ask for suggestions, advice, etc, without feeling or looking like a total ass hole or "politically incorrect". I don't want to be around minorities anymore. I can't ask anyone though without "offending" them. I'm not saying I don't like minorities (for all the politically correct police officers). I'm just saying I don't feel comfortable around them. However, everytime I move, it seems that all the white people live in nicer neighborhoods where it's past my income level. Why can't I "catch up" and get to where they are, to where I want to be, where I used to be, where I only want to be, upper-middle class bracket? I don't want to remain stuck around low-income immigrants/minorities for the rest of my life. All it does is make me feel sick to my stomach. It just reminds me of how "low class" my adult life turned into. It makes me feel terrible. It makes me feel sick. Like I sunk. (Because I did actually.) How did I end up so misfortuned? How did everyone else make it through okay? and I didn't? What happened? WHere? When? And most especially, what now?
: : I want to go back up to middle class again. I want to go back up to what I'm used to, to what my personal comfort zone is. I HATE living in lower class minority neighborhoods. I HATE it. It's ugly here. There's garbage everywhere. Upper-middle class white people care about the environment and keep it clean. That's what I feel. Those are MY values. That is ME. So why the hell can't I live around people who live the same values as me? Why am I so dam stuck? how the hell do I get out of this? This is so embarrassing. I can't tell anyone I grew up with, nor any my relatives where I live now - it would be HUMILIATING.
: : What happened to my life? I don't like urban low-income. I like white, rural, middle to upper class. I HATE it here. I got to GET OUT of here, and back to at least rural, at least white. But how? How do I do it? How do I get out of here????????? Ugh! :(
