Hey, I know how you feel. I've been through similar situations. Steemit might actually be able to help, but you need to start writing and posting. Look at the posts with high payouts, and think about why they get so many upvotes. They're all engaging and entertaining in some way, and you can probably do that too. There are lots of groups on steemit that help good writers and content creators get noticed, so if you keep it up, they'll find you eventually. Goodluck sir, hope everything works out.
