Recovery Fund: Selah House
Donation protected
Hi friends, I’m sure you know who I am already if you’re here, but I’m Lilly.
These past few months have been very hard on me mentally, and it has caused some harmful behaviors to arise that started in my adolescence. I’ve always struggled with anorexia and my relationship with food, and the stress of some recent events has amplified my symptoms and pushed me into a very dark place.
I don’t want to be sick. I don’t want to destroy myself. I don’t want to watch everything I’ve worked so hard for just disappear in a matter of weeks.
To try and prevent a major catastrophe in my life, I’m opting to admit myself to a PHP (partial hospitalization program) with Selah House, a clinic in Cincinnati that specialized with all forms of disordered eating behaviors.
The program I have been recommended in a 12 week program, split into 2 phases. Phase 1 includes meeting at Selah House 5 days a week, from 9am-3pm for therapy, food management, amongst other things. The second phase would be meeting 3 times a week, for less time, in preparation for discharge. The only obstacle is the price tag WITH insurance- $2600.
They offer payment plans which I intend on utilizing, but the full amount must be paid before I’m discharged in the 12 weeks, and this is where I’m asking for help.
If you’re able to donate anything at all to help me with this huge cost, I would just be forever grateful. I’ve never done anything like this for myself, my ED has always come and gone spontaneously, but it’s to a point where I can’t wait for this to pass. I can’t allow myself to waste away right now.
Anyhow, if you read this whole thing, thank you. I really really appreciate you.
Please feel free to share this fund. I’m not ashamed or embarrassed, just mildly desperate.
Have a good day
