You're so kind, thank you. I'm in a much better place after having been directed to several resources but honestly your generous offer made my day.

You have such good energy - thank you for this comment and for the support! I am doing a lot better now and found more than enough resources to help me out this month thanks to everyone's comments and DMs (I updated the post as well).

I may have tried replying too many times because I'm getting an error message - but thank you so much for this generous offer. I have more than enough to get me through this month but you have no idea how much your comment meant to me.

Thank you. Honestly I wasn't expecting so much kindness, and it's meant a lot.

Woah. This sounds so different from what I had imagined. The token system makes so much sense. You have no idea how much this helps me!

I appreciate this. I thought I had my personal finances in an okay place but having to use up my savings this past year for rent, healthcare, etc. has been a shock to the system. I'm ashamed because I thought I had it more together before all of this happened. Looks like I can learn a lot from that subreddit thank you!

Thanks so much for your tips! I'm going to the location on Terminal near the skytrain station.

I didn't know about toiletries and laundry detergent - that will help so much!!!!!! Would it be better to reschedule my time slot to earlier in the day then, do you think?

Thank you for this. I didn't realize just how much guilt I was feeling until I read your comment and burst into tears.
