Hey, it’s Evan.

I hate that I have to do this, but things have really fallen behind in my life. Unexpected expenses recently ($900 in vehicle maintenance alone) have really drained me and bills are falling massively behind. My anxiety is at an all time high as the debt collectors call me at least 10 times a day. I have to decide what has to lapse or which late fees are the lowest to incur so that a different bill can get paid.

If you would like a detailed breakdown of the funds requested, I can provide that to you, but the list is daunting and to write it all out here would be unbelievably exhausting and anxiety inducing. But if you are curious, I can get that to you.

It has gotten to the point where I have to delay veterinary care to my cats so I can keep the power on in my house.

I’m going to have to stop going to my therapy sessions because I can’t afford them.

I know this is all my fault. I know it’s not your problem. But know that every single thing helps right now.

The system may be broken and working against us, but I know that this is of my own doing.

So I am swallowing my pride to set this up.

Literally *anything* helps.

Living paycheck to paycheck sucks.

I love you very much.
