Hey, I'm Jessica.
I'm chronic mentally ill and just went through another heavy episode, lost my job, my business and my sanity.
I've been hospitalized and been treated in a psychiatry and had a rehab afterwards.
Now back home, I'm trying to build my life back up while staying somewhat mentally stable and preventing another episode.
It's not the first time I went throgh this, it's actually the fourth time.
I've had a traumatic childhood which resoluted in me developing a Post traumatic stress disorder. This was what made my Borderline personality disorder break out years later.
Along with those two main diagnoses I'm also diagnosed with Anorexia Nervosa, chronic depression and a chronic pain disorder.
Due to the complex and chronical interplay of those illnesses I can't live a normal life like a healthy person might do.
My illnesses are like I already mentioned chronical. They're periodically recurring, resoluting in me just not being able to maintain a stable life.
I have huge difficulties to stay in a job.
I have huge diffculties to maintain relationships.
I have huge deficits in being part of the society because of quite a lot of things triggering my trauma.
I drop out of life periodically.
When being in another depressive episode I always get suic*dal, which always ends with me being again in a psychiatry.
I need constant psychological treatment to be able to acutally LIVE.
I try my best. I'm a fighter and somehow always managed to wriggle through all obstacles, relapses, episodes and so on.
But this time, and my psycholgical team really URGED me to, I have to go another way or I'll really die from it one day.
To sum it up: I'm not able to work anymore.
Just a few hours a day. I'm now officially in early retirement and am getting a very low disability pension.
The few hours a day I'm allowed/ able to work a day, I put into my small business. My passion. My joy. And my little extra pennies.
But it's still rough. Very rough.
By donating and supporting my campaign, you get a lot of stuff off my shoulders and make my life a bit easier.
I can pay my medical bills such as the additional charges for my domestic care, my medications, physiotherapy and psychotherapy without asking me each month how I'm supposed to do this.
You can so much reduce my stress about it and make me focus more on the ACTUAL recovery.
Thank you <3
