Help me access urgent mental health support

Hi, my name is Sarah, and I’m reaching out for help during one of the hardest times of my life.

I have been under community mental health services for over 11 years. Throughout that time, I’ve battled with my mental health while trying to trust the system meant to help me. I have been in and out of mental health wards/ general hospital since I was 16. Sadly, despite some moments of support, I’ve been let down again and again — most recently having vital funding for therapy pulled without warning. It’s left me struggling more than ever.

It’s not easy for me to ask for help like this. I’ve wrestled with whether to create this fundraiser, but I know that without private support, my chances of recovery are slipping away.

I am desperate to find my way back — to stability, to hope, to life. Private mental health services could give me that chance, but I can’t afford it. Every donation will go directly towards therapy sessions, assessments, and treatment that could truly change — and save — my life.

I’m so grateful for any support and even sharing this page would mean the world to me.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and for any support you can give.
