It can feel like a double whammy hey, on top of the challenges in feeling secure and at home more broadly in a different country. Can't feel secure in your physical home either. Unfortunately so many people blame migrants for the housing situation and it's hard to get any sympathy... Hope your landlord will be generous about it.

I'm anticipating another notice in February or so and I suspect that'll be my cue from the universe to vamoose after 3 years
