Urgent Aid for Phoenix and August
Donation protected
I am setting up this GoFundMe to ask for help.
My partner of 3 years and I are currently not working due to a severe mental health crisis. Phoenix has been experiencing acute PTSD episodes that have left him unable to function normally, which includes work or leaving the house. After an emergency consult with the doctor, we have both been written out of work until further notice. I am also not working at this time because it is not safe for him to be alone and he needs help with everyday tasks. I am acting as his caregiver at this time as we navigate the multiple emergency mental health appointments and his daily panic attacks and PTSD episodes.
We are currently in the process of seeking help from outside sources, but at this point, we are still stuck in the long process of multiple interviews with the county and them considering our case. We have no financial stability and no money left after we had to pay out of pocket for his appointments and new medications.
We are asking for this amount to help cover:
rent
food
my cat's food/care
Uber rides to doctors (he is not allowed to drive)
medication (he was prescribed more we need to pick up)
other bills such as internet and phone
We are unsure what to do besides reach out for help from others at this time. In all honesty, I procrastinated setting this up because I know a lot of people are struggling right now, but it would truly mean a lot if we can get any assistance. Even if people just share the fundraiser so it can be seen by as many people as possible.
We are both grateful for any help received. Thank you.
