Richard Mental Health / Keep Afloat

Donation protected
I have recently decied to make the leap into recovery. I have been losing a long time struggle with PTSD and Borderline Personality Disorder and have been taking the steps to recover. I have lost many battles with self-medication and have started a substance abuse / behavorial modification out patient program. I have a Psychiatrist and have been recieving therapy in multiple avenues but the costs are becoming crippling.  I am current attending AA and MA to help supplement my recovery but with all of these routes of healing I am begining to be spread violently thin. Unfortunatly several days ago I got into an accident on my bike a severly broke my hand which resulted in some pretty painful and intense surgery inorder to fix it. Between the Mental and Physical health bills things are starting to look very grim financially. I have been the provider for my family but am no longer able to work for a while during my recovery / therapy which is reaching upwards of 30+ hours a week alone. The costs are adding up and my nest egg has dissapeared...although to a good cause. It brings me a bit of discomfort to result to somthing like this, but dont really see any other way. Any help would be greatly apreciated and for anyone who knows me, this will be rewarded in some way or another.  It has taken a lot of effort and pain to get to this point but I will win this fight and  I will make all those who have already shown amazing support proud.
