Please Help Two Disabled Wives (LGBTA) and their Cats!

Donation protected
Hello! My name is Maite and I love my wife Seren a LOT. Though we share a life full of happiness and love with each other and our two cats, Willow and Wisp, we both struggle with severe mental health issues that impact our everyday lives, and we are still recovering from our individual intense traumas.

We are currently in the middle of treatment and therapy, and my wife is bedridden from how bad her condition is. (She struggles with BPD, ADHD, social anxiety disorder, agoraphobia, and severe CPTSD.) I too am also unable to do much due to how bad my anxiety is (and in turn, the depression it causes). Randomly being hit with anxiety and panic attacks makes it very difficult to hold jobs. The current one I have I am blessed with because they understand when I need breaks for my mental health issues, but it still only allows for part-time, and mental health days are, of course, still unpaid.

With help from family and my job, we've been able to get by by the skin of our teeth, but with our bills and how much everything is costing nowadays, we have accumulated a lot of debt. Although we've applied for social security benefits, it is going to be a long battle and in the meantime, we can end up homeless or with nothing. We might even end up having to give away our cats, and with how much they've been helping us therapeutically, that would be very hard for us.

Our current debts ask us to pay at least $3,200 by October 2nd. With food, medical expenses (medication included), home needs, hygiene needs, bills, pet expenses, and anything else we might need just to live our lives, this is becoming a huge burden that brings a tremendous amount of stress to our lives.

Please, if you can give anything you can, we would both greatly appreciate it. Thank you if you read this, and thank you so so much if you donate. Please have a pleasant day!
