Hi, my name Agata and I’m fundraising to help me receive proper treatment and support during an extremely difficult time in my life.

I am 27 years old and have been living in the UK for over five years with settled status. Over the past year, my health has declined severely. I suffer from severe OCD, intense anxiety, depression, and mobility issues that make it nearly impossible for me to manage basic daily tasks on my own. My condition has reached a point where I am no longer able to work, and the medications I was prescribed have not helped enough.

Because of this, my partner has become my full-time support—helping me with cooking, bathing, dressing and managing the home—on top of working full-time to cover our rent. He also has a 10-year-old daughter, and because of the pressure we’re under, he barely gets the time he deserves with her. It breaks my heart to see how much strain this situation is putting on him and our family.

Although I receive some benefits, it is not nearly enough to cover basic needs such as food, travel to appointments, or the kind of treatment I urgently need. I have been advised that the most effective treatment for my OCD is CBT/ERP therapy, but private sessions cost around £60 per week, which we simply cannot afford.

On top of all this, we recently received notice that we will need to move within the next six months because our current property is being sold. We have no savings to cover moving costs or deposits, and I have no family support in my home country. My life, my partner, and my future are all here in England—this is my home.

I’m asking for help so I can:

Access weekly CBT/ERP therapy

Afford medication, food, and basic living costs

Save for the upcoming move so we don’t risk becoming homeless during this crisis

Reduce the pressure on my partner, who is carrying everything alone

Any amount, no matter how small, will make a real difference in my ability to get treatment, regain stability, and start rebuilding my life. I am deeply grateful for anyone willing to help or even share my story.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
