hey it makes me really uncomfortable to do this, but I've been in a severely strenuous financial situation for a few months straight now and it is really impacting my life negatively and i could use some help.
mental illness trigger warning (sui/sh/ed) and financial stress mentions below.
I'm a queer mentally ill adult just trying to survive in the world. covid changed my job dynamic a couple of times and in that time i lost out on some paychecks. i was already barely scraping by at that point so it sent me over the edge. since then I've been forced to max out all my credit cards just to pay rent. my bank account is always negative because as soon as i do get paid my entire check goes towards rent or other bills (phone, utilities, credit payments). I've been receiving up to 6 voicemails a day from companies reminding me that i have late bills to pay. my internet is about to be shut off and my rent is late. i get paid tomorrow and 100% of my paycheck is going towards rent and i still won't be able to pay all of it.
my mental health has gone extremely downhill and I've been at a very low point for a couple of months now. i consider sui*ide almost every day because it feels like this is never going to end. my eating disorder is in its biggest relapse in years because i can use being broke as an excuse to not eat. I've relapsed with self harm as well after being clean for almost a year before all of this. i can't afford my med refills. i owe basically everyone in my life money, which is a situation that i always hate being in. I'm changing jobs again in about a week and a half because the job I've been working at has been extremely stressful to my mind and body on top of all the other stuff going on. i have really run out of options other than maybe SW but that is not something I'm comfortable with in any way.
if anyone has even a few extra dollars to spare just to help get some food or go towards a bill, i would be eternally grateful. i don't know if i can offer anything of value in return so this is really hard for me to ask of people. I'm not sure where else to go. I'm currently about $1000 behind on bills. anything anyone sends will go immediately to essentials (food, electricity, rent, car) and necessary bills. if there is anything i can do for you in return for helping me, please let me know and i will try to do what i can to express my gratitude. please don't send anything if you're in a tough financial spot yourself. i definitely don't want anyone contributing if they're also struggling. i know it's incredibly hard out in the world right now and i want to be sure everyone stays safe and as stable as possible. if you aren't in a position to help out, reblogs would really help to spread the word.
