A couple of years ago, I had to leave my home because of an abusive situation. Since 2016, I've been living with a friend, and it's been a challenging journey. I've faced the harsh reality of sleeping rough and the mental strain that comes with it. Dealing with stress and anxiety has taken a toll on my mental health. Despite this, I've managed to stay away from harmful habits like drugs and alcohol, and I've tried to take care of my physical health as best as I can.
What brings me happiness is making people smile and cooking. I've encountered significant challenges in my life, but the most difficult has been not having a place to call home. It's tough to see people going about their day, knowing they have a roof over their heads at the end of it, while I'm left wondering if I'll make it through the night. However, I'm thankful for the support I've received, and I'm optimistic about a better future.
With Beam's assistance, I'm looking forward to securing a stable home and job. In two years' time, I hope to have a home of my own, a stable job, improved mental health, and maybe even start my own business. Achieving this goal with Beam would be like a dream come true. Thank you for your support; it means everything to me.
