TheGal - what are these “basic needs” in which you speak of (sarcastically asking, so forgive me if that comes out/ off wrong here). I've never had a support system, never had anyone to turn to/ talk with (no one that would stick around for long anyways). Even in the job I worked at for 30yrs, the idea of ones basic needs is such a foreign concept to me, as it seems everyone else had a right to “have a bad day” or “be in need of something”. Yet when it came to me, I was just thrown aside and forgotten about. I would absolutely love (wholeheartedly) to be able to work a basic job at this point. Starting a business, however, seems more like a pipe dream for me though, as I highly doubt I would be able to handle all the stress that is associated and comes with it.
