Your Thoughts...

[Roz]

on pawning jewelery that was once your grandfathers, fathers, loved ones, friends or significant others...would you do it if your in the position where you have no money, need to buy sumthing and are stuck?

i have 2 pieces of solid gold jewelery one of which my father wore on his hand for 13 years, another which was around his neck for 7 years both of which have sacred cultural meaning and also hold a large place in my heart

i dont wanna say ive hit rock bottom cuz i dont plan on pawning it to buy a gun and rob a store, but i need to buy groceries, my parents need money, i need medicine

what would you do in this situation? would you ask friends for help? what if you didnt have anyone to help you? would you pawn ur shit or not?

at what point does sumthing lose its value at heart and become an ok item to get rid of for money

i dunno where to stand on this cuz i want my jewelery, it means everything to me (i dont have my dad forever, but i can keep my gold that he gave me, so i can still keep him close when hes gone) but i also need food, my cat needs food (and it wasnt her choice to be a pet, it was mine, so im responsible for keeping it alive and healthy, including her babies) i need weed since i cant eat without smokin, and i need xanax (turns out its not covered by medical, so i gotta pay outta pocket for it and one other med) so i dont flip out cuz of the mental strain due to my medical condition, theres alot of shit i need this money for, and i dunno what to do

anyone wit advice on what they've done or would do would help, i appreciate it

I think you've already answered your own question... A pawn shop isn't going to give you anything close to what the jewelry is worth to you... You might as well look for another option...

eh whatever, its not like im a troll for askin for advice, and your thoughts

TECHNICALLY YOU DID ASK BRO.. GOOD LUCK ON THE RAILS.

 

[NAMO]

lol

but seriously selling that gold is a quick fix, what are you gonna do after you run out of money again?

you need a good paying job with as much overtime as possible

 

[Legman]

aww look GoW can make funnies, heres a cookie

on that note, no i dont have a job

im on disability cuz of my diabetes being outta control and causing nerve damage

 

[NAMO]

so you can't do any work?

 

[Legman]

im pretty much forced to stay home

so no, not many options

 

[NAMO]

can you take medication with you? why exactly are you forced at home though?

 

[Defy]

diah-beet-us

 

[Defy]

if its just diah-beet-us then you gotta get your blood sugar under control. poppin pills is only gonna hurt you in the long run.

 

[Legman]

im not poppin pills, im taking less then what the doctor wants me to be on

lol

and no, theres no medication that can reverse nerve damage

 

[Rusto]

and what pills you talkin bour rusto? i hope you not implying im poppin pills and just leavin me parents and other responsibilities to hang out a dry

i know you take lots of Methadone for "pain". That must be costly

what kind of pain do you have that would warrant taking such strong shit?

 

[Shaniac]

start pimpin chrees hoes






sorry i have no real advice

 

[Legman]

i know you take lots of Methadone for "pain". That must be costly

what kind of pain do you have that would warrant taking such strong shit?

Um my methadone doesnt cost me one red cent, no

and no im not taking 'lots" of methadone either, im taking less then what the doctor wants me on

and did i fail to mention
I HAVE NERVE DAMAGE, WHICH CAUSES PAIN

 

[Defy]

of course it ain't gonna reverse the damage, but its all about mind over matter. you gotta decide for yourself, do you want to be dependent on pills your entire life? Learn some tai-chi or something, deal with the pain in different ways.....what's the xanax for? ain't that some anxiety shit? get your meditation on or something.....skip the bud and try buddha, holla at the dali llama, something.....it's obvious what you doin now ain't working for you, so sellin some priceless heirlooms for food & pills ain't gonna help in the long run. You don't need weed to eat, it may help your appetite, but you can force yourself to eat small portions of just essential foods. think differently.

 

[Rusto]

it doesnt mean shit that the "Dr. prescribes it"....thats the classic line of people who are trying to rationalize their drug use/addiction. Dr.s are legal drug dealers.

 

[Legman]

the xanax is to stop all the anxiety and stress comin from it, its the only medicine not covered by my medical insurance

why do u guys think im over here partying up while my parents sit in the living room starvin? have you fuckin lost your minds? i dont have my medication, i need it to feel even remotely normal, im not on a drug crazed mission to pawn my shit and smoke it

i mentioned i have to pay bills and shit right? and food?

yea i shouldnt eat at all, paying for food to feed me family who cant buy food right now cuz were broke is absolutely wrong

-rolls a fat blunt immediately after saying that-

i hope you guys dont confuse my sarcasm either

smh

and rusto, im on 20mg a day, 2 pills, once a day, thats it, to stop the pain, nothin more

are you fuckin retarded?

You gotta be carefull with that shit, its just as addictive as heroin.

And most people don't take drugs to party, they take downers to get rid of all their problems.

 

[Legman]
