      Social welfare do not work. They can work under extremely precise requirements, which are not met in Switzerland.

      No idea how you do in the french speaking side of Switzerland.

      I am a bit below the existencial minimum with social welfare. It is enough to survive, if i cut back on social contacts, and don’t allow myself luxury.

      But i feel lost. I am stuck in this situation since over five years. Due to health related issues and traumatic childhood i can’t just work anywhere or cope with more social work situations.

      Sure i am on the list for disability money. But i will not have more when i get that. I will still sit in poverty.
      And just for context i am in poverty since i am born. Even back when i worked i sat around the existencial minimum… the rest gone to the debt collection office. I never had a 13th salary.

      I would not call my live „living“. It is an ongoing survival situation, paired with the pure determination to somehow exist and trying to better my situation.
