I'm making this go fund me to try to help my dear friend, Crystle. She has hit a really rough patch after suffering a devastating mental health emergency last fall. Like most of us, it only took one health crisis with extended hospitalization to ruin everything she was building. She had an apartment, a car, and employment, but lost all of it because she fell too far behind when she was sick.

After nearly two months of psychosis, I'm extremely grateful she made it through. However, recovering from this setback has been overly difficult. She lost her housing, transportation, and reliable income. She's already found one new job, but really needs a car to guarantee employment now and in the future.

She needs support for herself and Luna (her beloved hound dog) to get back on their feet. Right now, a gracious family has given her a room to stay in for a couple months to guarantee her basic safety. I want to assist in a funding boost so she can get a car and/or permanent housing.

I've watched Crystle go through a lot in the few years that we have been close friends. She has had to pick herself up and make a whole new life too many times. I'd like to give her some cushion and comfort in this difficult period. She deserves to feel love and community while restoring her life and livelihood.
