Paying for necessery treatment

Donation protected
⚘I have been reluctant to share this because...ego. I have six years of sobriety in march and along this journey I've gained curiosity and introspection while cultivating resiliency and stregnth. And still I can't shed this pesky eating disorder. There have been long bouts of recovery followed still by a worse relapse. Because of this I will be checking into an inpatient facility for help in the upcoming weeks. I've worked hard to get an insurance policy to help pay for this treatment. There remains a $4500 balance that I cannot afford at this time. 

My life is beautiful today, but I didn't get sober to not be entirely free. My world is sharp but I want it technicolor. My character has crystalized, but now it's being tested. I'm sharing this not out of pity but out of humility. So many of the women I admire walk through this world free from bondage. I am inspired and amazed by them. Instead of watching, I want to join.

God bless you and keep you. Until then--
