Help a mentally ill woman go to the hospital
9 months ago
A little more serious than usual.
Welcome to February. In March, I plan to check in to a mental health facility. It's been a long time coming, and honestly, the only reason I have the guts to do it now is that another friend recently spent a couple weeks in.
I currently have no insurance, and my credit card is maxed out at $13k. My current income is going to keep me on top of my regular bills for the rest of the month, but once I check in, I'll be out of work, and when I get out I'll still be going to regular therapy which will cut into my work availability, if my job is still available - I don't see why it wouldn't be, but part of the reason I'm checking in is paranoia and catastrophizing, and not being able to afford my own mental health care is a big concern when making plans for further mental health care following a stay in a dedicated facility.
Obviously, I've made this post to ask for money. I have a few adoptables uploaded here, but the bulk of them are on deviantArt. They're set up as dA-specific sales, but just let me know what you want and I can take the payment through PayPal and close the sale on dA.
You can find my adoptables in this folder, and my PayPal address is cassidypeterson[at]yahoo.com
However, I know my adopts aren't exactly great works of art, so yes, I'm relying on donations to float me and word of mouth to spread my situation around. This is not an easy time for me, and I honestly don't expect it to get any easier until I've been in the facility for a while - a week, two weeks, who knows. They operate on a get-'em-out basis, to put it informally, but they also genuinely try to adjust their patients' medication, give them the resources they need, and point them in the right direction in terms of further treatment.
Thank you for reading my little ramble, and thank you for any help you're able to throw my way, even if it's just to spread the word. Every little bit helps.
Love y'all
