[color=emo] Sachie Whitby TL;DR: Sachie doesn't have extra money to buy s**t. lol unecessary post. yeah I understand most people don't have money to buy s**t but it's worth a try :T
I meant to say that my family has me so needlessly stressed over money and their constant spending that I've been having migraines all weekend, but it got so bad that was all I ended up writing. The big issue really is that my job has me going through periods where I have no client and therefore no work hours thus no money coming in.
My mom, in particular, gets so unreasonable in her demands that my office is willing to write me a note to give her telling her that yes I am still employed with them and that they are working with me to get me a new client thus more work hours. Seriously, I'm not even joking there.
It doesn't help things that if you only count food, water, gas for the car and random spending money for random things that I'm the only person in my entire family who can go with just $100 per month for that.
Everyone else is all like "let's go out to lunch" then wants to go somewhere that is going to cost like $10-20 per person. Seriously. Why don't we eat at home and put that towards paying off one of the home repair projects I didn't think we needed but happened anyway.

I interpreted your post as you saying that my post was tl;dr, not that your own post would be tl;dr. woops misinterpretation~
I feel you on the going out for lunch thing. I live with my best friend and her parents finance her for everything. In the summer she would spend $100 a WEEK on unnecessary food and s**t even though our fridge was usually stocked pretty well. I'd be the sourpuss that would always suggest eating in >___>
You should probably just sit down and have a chat with your mom about overworking you. Migraines are serious business.

No, I don't tell people their post is TL;DR. I will do that for my own though.
We have that talk. She stops for a bit, then goes out to buy needless things then harps on me about money like somehow it's my fault she decided to buy something she didn't need or paid too much for it.
Don't get me wrong, I will by nice/expensive things like my sunglasses that cost me $65. The normal price was $200 but I got it at an outlet store that had them on clearance $150... not much of a discount. I had a coupon for that store plus someone with me that had that store's credit card [and there was a promotion going on where they'd take a percentage off if you used their credit card.] Between the two, I drove the price down to less than half the clearance price [and just gave the cash I had for it to the person who put it on her charge card.] I don't remember what the department store price was... probably don't want to know.
My mom in comparison will go out and spend $200 on a handbag that is not from an outlet store, not on sale, no coupon, no credit card discount, nothing. She just paid full price. The rest of the family isn't much different.
