BRAVO!!! On many things here. Keeping your job & getting insurance opens up the door to getting way better treatment & help with your prescriptions & some therapy, if you choose.
Having a place of your own is no small feat/feet? either, even without a bathroom. It's YOURS, with your things, with a door you can lock & the rain can't come in on you.
Getting started late is something a lot of us deal with, you are certainly not alone there. And yes, I still struggle, meds, moods, anxiety...
We will certainly acknowledge what you've achieved here on this site.
Sorry about the car, another opportunity for one will come when the time is right.
Hopefully your treck across Minneapolis wasn't in the winter.
Good luck& keep us posted.
