Can i ask, how do you actually reach out for help, or even acknowledge that you need help? As a student, things can often get pretty hard, especially when food is hard to afford, but i wouldn't ask for help.
Of course this is extremely, relative, as i live in Denmark, and therefore is extremely well off. I am very grateful that i am able to study and live here.
However, i can not wait until the day where i make enough money to actually help other people. Helping out is absolutely wonderful and it gives such a joy to do. In Denmark, the homeless are able to sell a magazine called "hus forbi". If they register as homeless, they can buy it for 8 dkk, and sell it for 20, and keep the change (i think that is the price they buy it for at least). Those people are really giving an effort, and are more often than not extremely nice. I buy those magazines when i get the chance, i think it's a wonderful project.
I just hope those people have shelter, because it's getting very cold.
