I have a major legal issue - and it feels like no one is listening to me.
I was entitled to a student allowance when I wasnt supposed to be - and now I have to pay it back. I dont have the money to pay it back - but most of all, it was someone elses error - so why am I being held accountable?
It is just making me feel bad. Bad because yet again I am alone. Yet again I have no one to support me or be on my side. Yet again I am just sinking further and further and further into never ending debt. I am just becoming a slave with no existence.
I get so tired of such an unsupportive, cold, selfish world. Where people get constantly left behind, where we all HAVE to be selfish because if we arent then people will just take advantage. It makes me feel very very very depressed and alone.

You're right, that doesn't sound very fair. They made the mistake, and therefore they should swallow the loss. But I'm guessing this allowance came from the government, in which case I doubt there's any way that's going to happen. Nothing and no one has a more inflated sense of entitlement than government. :🙁:

Thank you both.
Yes Rembrandt - that is exactly right. Of course there is more specifics to how this came about and I was tempted to express it, but... it is too long and complicated.
Lets just say that when I went to study - I was under the impression that I was allowed a student allowance, and now they have turned around and said...whoops...sorry you WERENT supposed to have that....give it all back now.

I'm sorry Kia, it sucks that you've no one to support you. I know the feeling. I hope everything gets sorted.
I still think you should fight it to your last breath, Kia. You owe a lot of money and you shouldn't have to pay it.
I am trying Mikey - the place that I studied is blowing me off. I have a community lawyer looking into it. I mentioned this on another forum (I visit a forum that is very unsympathetic to the woes of others... for comparison of peoples attitudes - and a reality check) and I got ZERO sympathy... in fact all I got was attacked. I am bound by government policy and bureaucracy. I will try... I just need to get used to not having anyone believe in me. Standing alone is really hard sometimes.

Thank you Srijita - this is a feeling that I experience often. It's in my gut. I have this feeling, this premonition that one day - because of my overwhelming mediocrity, that eventually I am going to become a person that is forgotten and completely unwanted.
And the day that that happens....will not be good.

You're not alone, though. I may be across the ditch but I am in 100% support of you. It's not going to be a walk in the park having to deal with the government and getting them to admit their error, but it's a lot of money and you shouldn't have to pay it, even if you had the means to.

I hope it never happens Kia, like Mikey said, all of us are here with you.

How unfortunate. I agree if it was human error and you were a student there you shouldn't have to pay a thing. I completely understand, personally I do. Fight this out strong. I definitely hope that never happens either. You're still very much cared about here, you're as sweet as can be, no one ever wants that :🙁:.
Thank you Mzbuzz - that is kind of you to say - sometimes it doesn't feel that way... based on what is seemingly important.
Thank you though, that is very sweet of you.
