My friend is confiding in me that she got paid today, but her bank account is still in the negative. She's struggling with extreme depression because of her financial situation, and I want to do what I can to help take some of that pressure off. Her parents don't have any money, so she can't get any assistance from family.
I don't have any cash I could offer, but I could afford to put up to $100 on my credit card with no expectation of repayment. I know it's not much, but I'm in between jobs and am struggling myself.
Beyond this, I'm not sure how she can get the help she needs so she doesn't lose her car, her apartment, or get her power shut off. Are there reliable resources I could point her to for assistance?
I'd gladly offer that, but we both live in one bedroom apartments and have cats that probably would try to murder each other. But if it comes down to it, I'd let her move in if it could work. I would love some help with rent, myself haha.
