Hello everyone,
This is probably the most difficult post I have ever written.
Some of you may know, I have been going through some serious challenges for the last 2 years. Two years ago my nervous system collapsed under the amount of stress I was in, sending me into severe insomnia, anxiety and panic attacks.
I tried everything I could for the first year staying in the US. But nothing worked. I made my way to my home country, hoping that being around here, having more resources for support, I will start getting better. This has not been the case.
Over the last year, I witnessed people I know from childhood inflict pain upon me, knowing the vulnerable state I was in. Particularly my alcoholic mother and drug addict brother. This played a real trick on my nervous system a few months ago. I now blocked all of them and moved out to live with a friend. I feel better emotionally, however, I am still far from being okay.
I, at this point, spent tens of thousands of dollars trying to support my body through this experience. I stopped working completely a few months back as my body cannot handle any stress, whatsoever.
I am starting to feel better. Right now I need stability to continue my recovery; receiving treatments that help my body settle, buy medications and supplements, pay rent, and eat food. And I am out of resources.
My ask is that if I have been a positive contribution in your life, you consider donating. Asking for this type of help is really hard and yet, humbling. Thank you all for reading.
