Help Me Build a Financial Safety Net

Last year was incredibly tough for me. I struggled to find stable work for a long time and ended up in debt. Now I'm doing everything I can to get out of this financial hole — but the constant stress is taking a toll on my mental health.

Lately, I’ve been battling with suicidal thoughts again. I try to cope, but often I fall into compulsive shopping — I know it’s not healthy, but sometimes it feels like the only way to feel safe.

Right now, my biggest dream is simple: I want to be free of debt and have a small financial cushion. Nothing extravagant — just enough to breathe, to feel secure, and to start rebuilding my life.

I currently owe £1827 to friends and have a £500 overdraft at the bank. With my flat rent and basic living costs, I’m aiming to raise £3022. This amount would help me pay off my debts and reduce the overwhelming pressure of survival that’s been weighing me down.

If you’re able to support me — even just by sharing this post — it would mean the world. Thank you for reading.
