Hi friends,

It's your old pal and favorite friend with a hard-to-pronounce name, Raghav (pronounced rah-go)! I am raising money so that I can stay in outpatient therapy for the substance abuse and mental health issues that have surfaced during this year's lockdown. I have found a great program that has been overseeing my care regarding these issues, but my insurance has declined to cover more time at the facility. Time that I desperately need, as it has been immensely helpful in the early stages of my sobriety. This outpatient program has given me the tools to maintain my sobriety for 101 days so far, and I feel I am just beginning to see the fruits of my labor. 

As of January 1, 2021 my insurance provider has told me they don't see the medical necessity in me continuing treatment; which I strongly disagree with, and that is why I am urgently coming to you all for help. The money I am attempting to raise will allow me to pay for another two months of 6 days/week outpatient therapy. Any additional funds on top of my current goal will go towards paying for continued treatment in March (and hopefully beyond!). 

This year has been immeasurably tough and uniquely challenging for all of us. That said, my silver lining for this surreal year has been allowing myself to seek help and commit to my sobriety. 

Thanks for taking the time out of your day to read my rambling. Additionally, sharing this post would also be great!

And please know that every contribution will mean the world to me. 

Love you all,
raghav
