52. your unhappiness doesn't make suburbia bad
it sounds like you do indeed have a terrible life and i hardly know what to say except that i don't think a miserable existence in a section 8 slum dwelling would be any improvement, i used to live in a couple of neighborhoods that were heavily populated by section 8ers, they were free fire zones, i was shot at through the window of my own house!

for most people, suburbia is the ideal lifestyle, close enough to city convenience, yet with the safety and the green space that is required for a full life

slamming suburbia is not going to make your life any better, and if you are indeed stuck there, you need to find the positives instead of the negatives

society treats all poor people like scum, not just the disabled poor, you can't let other people's attitude problems grind you down, it's pointless, the person who judges you based on the cash in your wallet is never going to change
