Help with paying off debt

Hi!

About 4 months ago I moved across the country to Squamish BC and spent the entire summer completing the procedures to become a BC citizen. I have never felt more at home than I have in BC, so moving there felt like the best thing to do for my mental and physical health.

Last winter I spent in Montreal was by far the worst depressive episode I've been through, followed by crippling anxiety which resulted in an enormous feeling of being completely lost. The only thing that kept me going was the thought of moving to BC and being surrounded by mountains and rivers.

I have been through a tremendous amount of anxiety regarding my financial situation over the past few months. After applying to all the jobs in my field in the area, I was only hired in the last month and a half as a part time worker, which didn't cover my monthly bills and debt that added up in the past 4 months.

I had to pay rent (975$), therapy (340$/month), medication (130$/month), car repairs (2 000$ in the past 3 weeks) and gas (about 300$/month), food (super expensive) and other expenses. I cancelled my therapy for the month and was barely eating to be able to afford the trip that was planned for winter. On October 27th I was supposed to head down to the states to travel around and climb, and as I was ready to leave my car didn't start. A week prior I brought it to the car mechanics and spent 1 600$ on repairs. I didn't really have the choice to pay for it since it would be my home for the next few months.

So long story short, I panicked and came back to Montreal because I had no apartment as of November 1st and living in a cold and damp van wasn't a viable solution in the long term.

I've been back in Montreal for almost a week now and I can already feel my mental health degrading and have barely been able to peel myself off my couch. Doing my groceries is a nightmare because I can barely afford anything. In the time I've been back, I've been trying to sell items around my place as much as possible and find a source of income to afford the bare minimum and pay off my 12 000$ debt.

Organizing this gofundme is pretty difficult for me considering I have an extremely hard time asking for any kind of help. It's hard for me to share that I'm going through a pretty tough time mentally and struggling financially. The only thing that is keeping me sane is the thought of going back out West and keep building my life out there.

I would be eternally grateful to even the smallest donation possible. Thank you soooso much.

p.s. The people I've met over these passed few months have made this transitional period feel so natural and effortless. I'm so grateful to feel loved and cared for by these amazing people. I've never felt better and more at home than I have in the past few months.
