I was born into poverty. My parents had university degrees, and after we moved to Canada, they ended up working minimum wage jobs. There was no support for us here. We did not have the resources or know-how of how to integrate into the community, find emotional support, or tap into resources that would help us out of poverty.

And now, I feel like I'm marginalized and oppressed. I don't know what to do anymore. I think I'm going to be poor forever. And living without money is f***ing horrible. My survival and safety is always causing me to stress out, and I have to live in panic. I think I'll just kill myself. It's the only way I'll get to feel relief. This is hell.

Your parents sound pretty stupid to end up working minimum wage jobs with college degrees.
