Recently recovered from severe depression and feeling okay for the first time in years, but struggling to get back on my feet again. Asking for some help with a down payment for a vehicle so I can get to work (..)

I will start by saying that I was reluctant to do this, as it is not something one ever imagines Themselves doing…but I felt obligated, let Me explain: see,  I am living with My Mother now for a few years since My Dad passed, and helping to take care of Her. Neither of Us have much, nor is there Anyone We can rely on . She is partially disabled and depends on Me for some things, which I am always happy to oblige. The main issue is My truck was totaled in an accident over the summer. And unfortunately, there has been plenty more hard luck, and misfortune,  so we are barely hanging on at this point. And honestly I wasn’t doing well for a while, in that I lost My Dad, My Uncle, and my Best Friend during the pandemic…it hit hard, but I’m coping with it now. Nevertheless I have a plan. I am working only one day a week now, so resources are scarce, but with a new car I could start doing ride sharing again (and I do have an excellent record with Lyft… I could provide proof of that as well) from there I could get some stability, and restructure. So in a nutshell, that’s it…could You help Me? I’d be eternally grateful, and pray for You each night.
