Please Help Me Fight for My Life and Future

Donation protected
I never thought I’d be here—publicly asking for help—but I’ve reached the point where this may be my only hope. For years, I’ve been fighting a battle most people never see: the crushing weight of depression and the relentless pain of PTSD. I’ve tried the medications, the therapies, the endless trial and error… and still, the darkness remains. Some of you have seen the downward spiral for yourselves and know how tough of a climb this has been for me, while most of you know me from Napa and that girl has lost her spark from trauma.

Recently, I was offered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to attend a specialized mental health clinic known for helping people whose depression and PTSD haven’t responded to anything else with a high success rate for people like me—those struggling with severe depression and PTSD that haven’t improved with traditional medications or therapy.For the first time in years, I feel something I thought I’d lost forever—hope.

But this chance comes with a cost I simply cannot cover alone. Without the support of my community, I’ll have to watch this door to healing close before I can step through it.

If you can donate, share, or even just send a kind word, you will be part of something extraordinary—helping me reclaim my life from the shadows. From the deepest place in my heart, thank you for seeing me, for believing in me, and for helping me fight for the light.

I would also like to add that this treatment is not local, I will be travelling to Calgary twice a week (staying overnight) and travelling back for 8 weeks those costs will add up. My incredible mother will be there to help navigate the treatment and travel since I won’t be cleared to drive.

if you have any personal questions please feel free to message me, I’m happy to chat about the treatment. I’ve attached a photo of the outline of it
