Hi everyone,

I'm usually a self sufficient person and I've been fortunate enough not to need financial help in the past...

Well unfortunately, life hits us all in the nuts eventually. Today is my turn.

For those of you who don't know, I've struggled with depression and suicide on and off for the last 10 years. I've kept this a relative secret because of the stigma that comes with PTSD and suicide, but I think it's time I shared a bit with everyone to try to fight the stigma and encourage others to reach out for help.

The military really took a permanent toll on my mental stability and I had a few good years in the last 10 years where I didn't have any issues. Unfortunately, part of PTSD and chronic depression is that it can come back at any time.

As many people can relate to, finances can be a huge stress and factor in mental stability. I'm now suffering from the reoccurrence of PTSD and depression and some days, I struggle with finding the will to live because of it.

For the last 2 years I've been dealing with legal issues stemming from a dispute with my neighbor (whom I have already moved away from). I've done everything I can possibly think of to get away from him and for him to leave me and my family alone, but nothing has really worked. I'm currently fighting this in court and it has taken an immense toll on my financial stability. So much so, that I'm here now asking my friends, family, and kind people of the world for help...

If you all follow me on Facebook or Instagram, you know I'm a big family person. My family is everything to me. They're the reason I have to go on each day. This money would go directly towards keeping my family safe from the tyrant that we used to live next to.

Thanks for reading and I hope you can spare something to help me be mentally stable in these tough times.
