Hi everyone!
I never thought I would be writing one of these, but next Tuesday (the 15th) I will be checking myself into a partial hospitalization program to receive treatment for my eating disorder. If you told me at this time last year that this is what the beginning of 2022 would look like for me, I would probably laugh at you.
If you know me well, you know it’s been a long time since I put my health and well-being before my career. Perhaps I never have, but I have finally worked up the courage to change that. I have chosen to put my body first.
Treatment itself is going to be costly, and reliable consistent transportation without a car is going to be a financial stressor. I wish I could say that I had it all figured out, but in the interest of vulnerability, I have no idea what I am doing, and I am scared shitless.
But I’m learning to ask for help. Asking for money is what I do 25/8 in my day job, and yet I’m horrible at investing in myself.
If you have a few dollars to spare, it would go a long way towards helping me not only pay for, but focus on treatment, and commit wholeheartedly to being the healthiest person I can be.
I love you all.
And remember, coffee is not a meal. You deserve to eat when you’re hungry.
