Help Restore a Safe Living Space for a Fresh Start

Help Me Restore a Safe Living Space and Move Forward

I’m a writer and artist managing a chronic autoimmune condition. Over the past year, my illness left me unable to maintain my living space, and it’s reached a point I can’t recover from alone.

I live in a 500 sqft apartment that has become heavily cluttered and unsanitary over the course of an illness that left me immobile for some time. I've reached a point where I cannot restore it on my own. I've received a professional quote for cleanup and furniture removal, but I do not currently have the financial resources to proceed.

The funds will go directly toward:
  • $2,800 - Professional apartment cleanup and furniture removal (initial quote provided)
  • ~$500-700 - moving assistance and storage costs

  • Any additional funds/overage will go toward covering unexpected disposal and storage fees.

The goal is to fully clear the unit, remove unusable items, and place what I need into storage so I can transition into a stable living situation.

This is not about replacing belongings or starting over - it's about restoring basic functionality and safety so that I can move forward.

-----
Why I'm asking for help:

I've tried to manage this on my own, but the scope of the situation exceeds what I can realistically handle without assistance. Continuing to delay has only made things harder and more stressful.

I'm choosing to ask for help because I need a structured reset in order to regain stability.

What your support does:

If this campaign is successful, it will allow me to:
  • regain a clean and usable living space
  • remove the immediate environmental barriers affecting my wellbeing
  • store essential belongings safely
  • move forward into a more stable situation

Transparency:

I will use funds only for cleanup, removal, moving, and storage services related to this transition. If any funds remain after completion, they will be used for ongoing storage costs, offsetting any balances, or donated forward.

Closing:
Thank you for reading and considering support. 

I’ve spent a long time trying to manage this quietly. Asking for help doesn’t come naturally to me. But I’m ready to move forward and I need a bridge to get there. Thank you for being part of that.
