I am living with schizoaffective disorder with bipolar, generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, traumatic brain injury, chronic neck and back pain, severe gout, severe sleep apnea, and substance use disorder. I take suboxone and require constant care from my family to keep me safe. Because of my health, I can no longer drive and need a driver, and I lost my job due to my schizophrenia and other health factors. My family helps me every day to make sure I don’t do something harmful, and I am working hard to stay safe and healthy.

Right now, I am looking for a bridge to get to SSDI, but the process takes time. Without a job, it’s been difficult to cover basic needs like groceries, rent, transportation, and even essentials like toilet paper. Every day is a challenge, and your support would mean the world to me as I try to get through this tough period.

Thank you for thinking of me and supporting me through this tough time in my life. Your kindness and generosity will help me stay safe, healthy, and hopeful for the future.
