You’re not alone in this. I lost my home during the 2008 crash and thought I’d never bounce back. It took time, but I did

28 out of 42 months… that line hit me like a truck. I’ve been floating in the same cycle and I wouldn’t wish it on anyone.

This isn’t on you. The game changed and no one warned us. Selling your house isn’t giving up but more on surviving.

I’m so sorry you’re going through this. It’s heartbreaking how little stability hard work actually buys these days.

I paid my bills, worked hard, kept my head down. Never took breaks, barely had employment gaps, and saved when i could. but since 2022, It's been nonstop layoffs, rto chaos, and policy changes destroying whole sectors. Tech went down. National labs slashed jobs. and me? I've been unemployed for 28 of the last 42 months.
I’ve tried so hard to hold onto my house. It’s everything i wanted built it up over a decade. Now it's listed below market just so i don't default. I don’t know what hurts more: losing it or feeling like all the work i put in meant nothing.
