Oddly Helpful

“People only want to hire businesses with skills!” Napoleon probably idk 🥸

I’VE GOT MAD SKILLS IN SO MANY AREAS so let me Oddly Help you today!

Also, all my clients are babes and I’ve always felt like a Kip so this tracks ☠️🤣

So thank you to all the babes I get to chat online with everyday! The babes keep me going!

But alas, I am mere mortal😭🍃🧚‍♀️💫✨

Since I’m human, though, let me Oddly Help you today!

If you see me tootin’ around Alvin, hi! 🤠🧚‍♀️🍃💃✨💫

I am having an incredibly hard time mentally and physical activity is the ONLY thing that immediately helps. Usually I run to combat my PTSD/Anxiety attacks, but couldn’t find my running shoes so today, I skated.

I may look happy, but that’s just because I did something physical and it’s the only thing that helps. It’s so bizarre to be THIS naturally happy with such a twisted existence. 😭☠️

Now, I’m going to cope in other ways like:
- cleaning
- writing poetry
- paint by numbers while listening to an audiobook
- reaching out to those I trust to talk because I cannot carry this load on my own.

If you’re having a hard time, reach out and maybe I can help.

Y’all have a good day.

Things will get better. ❤️‍🩹

✨BEFORE✨DURING✨AFTER✨

Hello, I’m the owner of Oddly Helpful and helping others is not where I stop, I also help myself.

A secret about me, I hate running. I hate running with my entire being, but I do it because it’s the best thing for my mental health.

I am severely traumatized and running is the ONLY thing that stops my panic attacks dead in their tracks and that’s EVERYTHING to me because I battle my mental health more than I don’t.

I’ve not been okay lately and realized I hadn’t been running, but I went today and did more than I usually do and am so glad I did.

So while yes, I hate running, I will continue to do it because the difference between the before and after inside my head…priceless.

10/10 HATE running
10/10 recommend
10/10 will do again.

Since I Oddly Help myself, I can now Oddly Help you!

Let me Oddly Help you today!

(Running/dancing/ballet stretching/ lifting weights has saved my life. Please, if you’re struggling, just start by walking a lap, I promise even just walking helps by a million!)

I love you and hope you love yourself today! Have an amazing day, y’all!

Oddly Helpful cares so much about friends and family and my own personal friend had 5 seizures back to back from epilepsy last night!

He asked if I’d hang out with him and just listen and be there because he’s going through so much and that’s something I offer at Oddly Helpful!
People deserve a safe space to vent, melt, and feel safe, but while we were talking he started seizing resulting in 5 back to back seizures so I called an ambulance and ride with him to the hospital so that’s why I’ve been on hiatus the past couple days! I’m not ignoring you!

If you could say a prayer for Zach, I’d appreciate it greatly!

Oddly Helpful will be available again in a couple days because I offered to take care him after the hospital to monitor his progress and make sure he doesn’t seize and especially not alone, so my priority lies there for the next few days!

I’m not ignoring anyone, I’m just dealing with a medical emergency and that is my priority!

Nobody deserves to struggle alone. As long as I’m here, you don’t have to struggle alone!

Thank you for understanding! Y’all have an amazing day and please say a little gratitude prayer for your own health!

I love you. Always have, always will. 🫶🥰

Here at Oddly Helpful, mental health matters!

I cannot remember the last time I had a day off or did ANYTHING for myself so I decided, since Annabelle is at my grandparent’s while I insulate the apartment and continue waging war on fleas, that I’d block out just 1 hour for me.

To be totally transparent, I feel incredibly selfish because I have so much to do and hardly EVERRRRR get time alone, but my therapist said that to be healthy I need to start taking time for myself and being something other than a mom/business owner/volunteer and it’s not selfish to do things that make me happy.

Idk why it feels so selfish though, but I did it!

I skated for funzies and bc I like to go fast and act like I’m surfing, I wiped out and got a booboo, but that’s the name of the game and I LOVE SKATING SO MUCH. The freedom, the wind, the music, the rush, just cruising and singing not a care in the world! (I am usually existential☠️)

Moral of the story, it’s not selfish to set time aside for you alone! Therapists encourage it and so do I!

That’s only for people pleasers though. Everyone else does it naturally, (some people do it too much), but that’s for all the people that feel selfish for having an hour just to yourself!

You matter. Your mental health matters and if you have a village or loving partner, they should be happy to allot you the time.

If you don’t have a village, I’ll be your village and watch your baby or help with anything you need so you don’t fall behind while you’re something other than a mom/dad/partner/enter title here that eats your time or stresses you out!

I care deeply about our community and want to help!

Let me Oddly Help you today!

Today is the first day I feel like I can breathe again after reading over my to-do list!

This is a sweet relief compared to what I’ve been having to do all day everyday and when I said I was working up to 16 hours/day, I meant it.

This is just a fraction of what I’ve been doing daily and honestly feels like a break compared to the nightmare I’ve been living.

I’ve been physically on my own handling this issue and have almost given up a handful of times because if THIS list is light work…can you imagine how hard I’ve been non-stop going?

Between sobbing, asking for help, scrubbing on my hands and knees, flea combing till my hands are numb and so sore they can’t open, I am finally at a point where it’s manageable and know that I can accomplish anything on my own (physically) and because I’ve retained knowledge and gained wisdom…I can better help you!

The beautiful thing, though, you won’t be alone. You have me.

And I’m a force to be reckoned with so the fleas don’t stand a chance! 💪

Fleas are the worst, but in a way, they Oddly Helped me and I’m grateful for the knowledge obtained through this devastating experience so thank you? I guess? 0/10 would recommend doing it alone though, it’s almost impossible and why it’s taken me so long to get under control!

Since fleas Oddly Helped me today, let me be Oddly Helpful to you tomorrow!

We care so much about you and just want you to be okay. 🙂

(Never in my life did I think I’d be thanking fleas for helping me, but everything is about perspective and mine is that…I’ve learned and that’s invaluable to me. So therefore, I’m grateful for the experience.)

‼️🚨TRIGGER WARNING: ABUSE🚨‼️

I would like to introduce myself! First and foremost, I’m naturally happy and very silly, goofy, bubbly and wake up singing to the birds everyday. Everyday is a gift and I express gratitude for waking up EVERY single morning because it’s a new opportunity full of hope! Mornings are my favorite!

Please know what you are about to read is the opposite of what comes naturally to me.

So…

My name is Megan and I’m a 36 year old widowed mom RIDDLED with trauma! Truly, it rules my entire existence!

- I got diagnosed with ☠️ tendencies and clinical depression at 12.
-Then came the anxiety, CPTSD, PTSD & OCD tendencies at 26.
-At 33, ASD (autism), ADHD and MDD (major depressive disorder.
- Finally last year, I got diagnosed with SAD (social anxiety disorder), Agoraphobic tendencies and life has been very hard for me.

I’ve been psychologically abused since childhood which led to zero self-worth and in turn, chose partners that felt like home, but home was chaos so it added to the trauma because the severity of the abuse was inhumane. I’ve been sexually abused more times than I have fingers and toes. I’ve been held at gunpoint and then beat up with the gun. I’ve been choked until I fainted, thrown because I’m 4’11, slapped, punched, body slammed, dragged by my hair, dragged by a car, financially abused, psychologically abused, emotionally abused, physically abused and I’m shocked that I’m still here, if I’m totally honest. But I’m a fighter and BOYYYYY did I fight back.

5 months after having our baby, my husband died. A year later, my best friend died. I fell in love again and he died under mysterious circumstances that they refused to investigate and shortly after, another good friend passed.

As you can see, I’ve been through it and struggle deeply.

In my struggle, I reached out for help and called a cleaning service who denied me services because it was “hazardous” and I knew that, which is why I finally reached out for help. Even reaching out for help felt impossible and after I was denied, I almost died. I wanted to die. I needed to die. How could I keep going if even a cleaning service that I didn’t have the money for, but was going to pay…denied me?

That was my final straw.

After that, I began my research.

I studied for hundreds of hours, taking personality quizzes, finding my organizational style, reading how to do dishes, how to clean, how to organize, how to interact with people, read book after book on autism, adhd, the mind, human behavior, what products helped what mess and just generally was trying to pick up the pieces from a sad, shattered existence and decided then that I wanted to help others who know my pain.

That is my “why” behind Oddly Helpful.

I almost didn’t make it out alive and yet, here I am.

My drive, my motivation, my compulsion to help stems from the fact that in my time of need, I was alone and in that time, wanted to end my life.

I don’t ever want you to feel the depth of darkness that almost took my life several times so that’s why I created my business!

I want to help those who are struggling to make it out alive. I want to provide services to those that normally cannot afford it! Who energetically cannot reach out for help!

I want to be the Google of Odd Jobs (delusional I know, but I felt delusional even thinking I could help anyone so I need to be delusional) and be a sense of peace and safety for those who not only get it, but desperately need it!

And if you get it, I am so sorry that you do.

But you’re not alone in your struggle. I’m here. Idk how, but I’m still here.

Please, no job is too “hazardous” for me and I will never judge you.

YOU are my “why” and if you feel like nobody is there, I am.

I stayed alive and because I’m still here, I want to share the wisdom and knowledge I gained from experiencing the severity of trauma I’ve been through and because I’ve healed so much, can now help others!

I am crying right now as I type this out because my passion and drive to be there for those who know what true trauma, pain, suffering and struggle feels like wins out over my exhaustion from my own trauma and pain.

Let my pain be your gain!

I’m a small business built on love for my fellow man. Built on a burning rage for being denied help when I needed it the most and that drives me. It’s built on passion and emotional depth.

I’m a business built for YOU and I love you. I genuinely love you and want to help.

I may be Odd, But I’m Helpful so let me Oddly Help you today!

📣‼️🚨ANNOUNCEMENT🚨‼️📣

Oddly Helpful is working towards becoming a non-profit so that we can focus solely on the volunteer aspect of the business!

Please be patient with me as I’m autistic, adhd, and mentally ill so I’m struggling on HOW to do that, but my heart just wants to help our community and be there for those who are struggling!

My dream is for those who cannot do for themselves because life hasn’t being kind, they will know to call Oddly Helpful and ALWAYS have that resource!

Here at Oddly Helpful we care so much about our community and EVERYONE in it so while I’m charging for jobs right now, my goal is to eventually become a nonprofit so that those who are unable to afford help, can still get it and feel peace where hopelessness has laid claim!

I love love and my business is built on love! Thank you so much for the never ending support! It does not go unnoticed and I’m grateful for everything!

Together, we can make a difference and bring hope to those who’ve lost it! 🫶🙏

(Any advice is welcome because I googled how and immediately felt lost so any tips or advice is helpful!)

ODDLY HELP ME TODAY SO I CAN ODDLY HELP OUR COMMUNITY TOMORROW! 🥰🥰

I am not taking this flea problem lightly and care deeply about the lives being affected by it.

Because I’m widowed, I do not have a co-parent and my village is almost non-existent, but luckily my grandparents took Belle for the week while I Sisyphus-ed this mountain.

I’ve had to accomplish a total home reorganization to really get into the nooks and crannies to more effectively defeat these tiny demons and if anyone knows about total home reorganization….it looks MUCH worse before it looks better….and it looks like several hurricanes swept through.

I’ve almost given up several times because I am only 1 person and cannot hire myself! 😭 I stand at only 4’11 and the furniture fought me hard, but ultimately…I won.

📣📣📣NOT FUN FACT:📣📣📣
✅Most people lose motivation and give up halfway through a total home reorganization because it looks worse than when you started 10/10 times and not everyone knows that! You must keep going though. Trust the process. If you quit halfway, it’s significantly harder to start again and properly organize after that. Don’t give up, give it 💯‼️

As you can see from my pics I’ve had stuff fall on me, run into things, dropped heavy objects on the stairs then fell down the stairs, but kept getting up and continued working.

“Tubthumping” by Chumbawumba accurately reflects my life because 🎶I get knocked down, but I get up again🎶 Over and over and over.

The beautiful thing about my suffering, though, I retain large amounts of wisdom and knowledge every time I suffer to this degree and luckily for y’all, apply that to how I approach my jobs with Oddly Helpful.

Yes! This has caused mental, emotional, and physical pain, but it’s okay because now I can more effectively help YOU!!

Let my pain be your gain. 💪

If you are suffering with fleas, I’m now a master flea decimator and will go to war for you so that you don’t have to figure it out yourself and suffer alone. It’s not fun.

This has actually been a living nightmare and I am running on fumes, but at least now I know what to do and am on the precipice of greatness.

(I wish I could “hire” myself and 🛏️ 😴💤)
