I know I'll get paid this Friday, but being in the negatives right now still hurts. 

I know I'll find a used car in the next few weeks, but I'm still reeling from my old one dying on me.

I know my mom meant well when she told me life wasn't over and that it'll all get better, I just feel so powerless and scared right now.

I know I have a support system in place that will see me through this. 

But right now, I still feel so helpless.
