HELP IS ON THE WAY!!!!!

I have recently been diagonsed with severe Schizophrenia, and now my family is in danger of being evicted.

I’m Eric. I used to be normal, just like you. I loved to watch sports, play video games, listen to music, and my absolute favorite thing is drawing. I could walk, function, and hold a conversation, I even graduated Highschool and went to college, but tragedy struck, and I was diagnosed with the most serious disorder in psychiatry. Severe Schizophrenia.

After going to college in Florida to pursue my dream of being a graphic designer. I started to act strange. I would call my family and they didn’t really understand what I was saying. I wasn’t making sense and ended up homeless. They begged me to come back home, but in my confusion, I eventually lost contact all together.

Thank God they finally were able to come and get me!

But it has come with so many struggles for my family. Sometimes I experience intense manic episodes where I hear voices, shiver, run away, think I’m a completely different person with different names, and the absolute worst is when I urinate and defecate on myself.

It’s really embarrassing, but my family knows I’m still in there. They are fighting everyday to hold on to me.

I love how my family cares for me, but the truth is I need so much help than my family can provide. I need a nurse, buddy, or aide who specializes in people with schizophrenia.

My family also wants to get me into some constructive activities, so that I can begin to socialize again.

They are all barely getting by, then they keep mustering up to provide.

I’m also starting to speak in full sentences again. I can say “Thank you mom.” And “I love you too.”. It warms my mom’s heart to know her baby could return completely healed one day.

There is hope though. I’ve been able to get and take my medication, but the government’s help only goes so far. My family has spent all their money just trying to get me stabilized. It is not easy to care for a person living with Schizophrenia. In fact, it cost my family every dime they had and consequently funding for our home. I am so grateful for their endurance and love.

I am trying to raise money to stop my family from being evicted and afford living expenses.

We are terrified of being forced to leave my home in a few days. This will greatly harm the progress that my family has made in bettering my psychosis. People with Schizophrenia need a stable environment in order to recover.

We are reaching out to raise around $15,000 for medical expenses, get me in a program that works and cares for people living with Schizophrenia, and to help with save us from our living crisis.

Your donation would be proof that Hope, Love, and Prayer prevails. Thank you and God Bless.
