Build a fence, so I can leave my house.

Donation protected
Hello. My name is Jamie. I have anxiety and depression. I struggle with work and with paying the bills and with life in general. Not anything that uncommon. However...

My fence was blown down by the wind earlier this year. It marks the boundary to my home, so was not covered by my insurance. I can't afford to replace it. It is right next to the street and now people can walk by and see into my house. This would be nothing to a normal person, but like I said I have anxiety.

The space between my front door and the gate that leads out to the street used to be a buffer where I could ready myself for the outside world. It made a huge difference to how I could live my life. With the fence gone, I feel exposed and really struggle to leave the house. Increasingly, I keep the curtains closed and stay in the room furthest from the street.

I am currently on medication and am working with an Occupational Therapist. I am making a lot of progress, but having a secure and private home would make such a difference.

The quote I have been given is to replace the previous fence and wall with just a fence. The foundation of the wall has sunk and it is falling in, so the plan is to replace it with a six foot fence with gravel boards at street level. It is both the cheapest and best option.

So that's what I need help with. Please help me build a fence, so I can leave my house.
