no room in the inn

NO ROOM IN THE INN th Trying to rent an affordable home or apartment in North Carolina with bad credit and on disability is like trying to find a needle in a haystack. I am so disgusted! But mostly I am angry at the rental practices. You are going through a lot with medical issues that racked up bills and appear on your credit report! During the process of unexpected illness, you lose your home, cars, money. You are forced to live with others until you can get back on your feet. You stay in a place where you are tolerated, never appreciated. This makes you sicker. The anxiety imposed by unkind and unfavorable remarks causes you to feel unwanted, unloved, alone and without friends. Already depressed and having to stay with others who don't want you is draining, disheartening and mentally exhaustive. You feel like a rug that's beaten on a daily basis. With all, that's dumped on you, in addition to a terminal condition, you become more weighted emotionally, and you find yourself, unable to move, emotionally and mentally. You are told to move out. Your search for places to live ends up in frustration sometimes tears. There is no place for the weary and no home for the low income with bad credit. Every place you try is a wall, no you don't qualify. So where does someone like that go? Most go to shelters, some on the streets. They have been turned away by family, friends, and renters. They are highly agitated, hurt, depressed and anxious. It wasn't their fault that illness struck but they pay the penalties. I find it's a crying shame that because of the rental practices, many are turned away because they don't qualify. Even to rent a room you pay a minimum $500, application fee 110 minimum, and income must be 3 times as much as monthly income! When you on SSI the max is $700. I've yet to receive that, My lowest has been 400 and the max is now 614. I pay 380 where I am now. This to people who need me but don't appreciate me. Now I have to move yet again. Where do I go? Alone, frustrated, and depressed I continue the neverending search and pray to God to help me find a place to live regardless of credit and the inability to have 3 times the rent. I pray for myself and all others who are going through the same thing. America needs to wake up and start having empathy for the poorest of all nations. The ones terminally ill and the ones who depend on social security to live. Social Security should be raised to the requirement rent. It should be 3 times as much so that people like me can find room in the inn.
