Aid Needed Due to Ongoing Illness

Donation protected
8/18/2025 - The bills keep piling up but I am hopeful that this is just temporary but has extended further than expected. Anything helps as I work through all this.  


2/28/25 - just a month to go. Anything helps to get there and will be returned. I am doing well in treatment and the future looks brighter. 

As embarrassing as this is…Having encountered extreme mental health illness I am not allowed to work in any capacity per my Psych Team. I am waiting on disability benefits. It takes too long. I have no way to pay my bills and daily living expenses and need some short term support. I am embarrassed to do this but was advised by several people to do so. This money will be used exclusively for housing and daily living expenses/bills. Please don’t look at it negatively on me. I do the best I can. 

1/31/25 - I went to treatment for 30 days for mental health and addiction disorders. In a partial program/recovery house now for now. Not sure for how long. 

2/12/25 - I am at the program house in Monmouth County, NJ. Things are going well with my mental health treatment so far as I can see. Disability is on track for mid to late March at the latest they have told me. I am planning on paying this all back with the lump sum I am expecting from back payments. 

2/13/25 - I received a verbal approval today. 1st Payment depends on when they get all paperwork done. Hopefully March but April at the very latest. I will post the “award letter” when I get it for proof.
