Help Gabriel Attend College
Donation protected
Hey everyone my name is Gabriel and up until a couple years ago I had no idea what my situation would be today. I have always been a good student, but in my personal life I struggled with severe OCD, Anxiety, and later it was revealed, also depression. All of these things were pretty manageable until the pandemic hit. My disordered eating developed into a fully formed eating disorder and by the time I went away to college I was extremely unhealthy. I had to leave my dream school halfway through my first semester because of how sickly I had become and barely made it to the hospital in time. I started my recovery journey then, a little over a year ago. They always say recovery isn’t linear and I soon found out why, i relapsed in my ED too many times to count and while I was in treatment in Washington DC I fell into a a dark drug and alcohol addiction. Once again I barely made it to a residential facility. I can now finally see a life for myself free of my addictions and ED, however this process has very much put a strain on my family’s emotional and financial resources. I now am in a place where I am trying to go back to college, however the treatment costs are making it hard to even consider. As such, I am swallowing my pride and starting a gofundme in hopes that I can afford higher education and carve out a life for myself that I can be proud of. I was always sure that I could get better and do things on my own, however I have since realized that I need to know when to ask for help, so here I am. Thank you for reading.
