I managed to escape an abusive situation 1 year ago and I've been recovering and healing since then. I also lost my immigration status so that meant I couldn't get a job or any help from benefits for myself and my daughter.
At the moment I'm having to borrow from friends to survive. I'm left with my daughter alone with no help from anyone else. Staying in temporary housing is also quite tough having to share which means things aren't always peaceful. Getting a job would make a massive difference because I could then get universal credit and move into a more stable place.
Any job would be great right now and I'm not picky. Warehouse jobs would be great because I've done it before. Something like picking or packing would be amazing but I need something quite consistent that I can manage around my daughter.
Just hoping one day I can get into university and attain a profession after leaving my career dreams behind in my home country. I'd love to find a way back into healthcare and medicine but at the moment I'm focusing on creating the best life for myself and my daughter.
Currently a lot is going on. When I watch movies or play with my daughter I feel like things are looking up. We love watching movies together and that gives me a lot of strength.
In 2 years time, I see myself pursuing my dream career in healthcare. My daughter would be in school and my life would be much cooler than it is now.
