Laptop to Support Mental Health
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Amy and I'm a 28 yr old nerd.
I grew up happy and fairly healthy and moved through life with goals and aims like any one else, but those aims and goals now are far simpler.
Can I wake up, get dressed and leave the house? Can I buy something from a manned till? Can I function properly?
The answer to some of these is no, as I have severe anxiety and worsening agoraphobia meaning my laptop is one of my few links to the outside.
And my laptop is old and on its last legs, if it dies, then I genuinely don't know what I would do. The power cord stopped working recently and I couldn't properly process the world for a few days.
Its become an essential part of my life, and knowing its there has been invaluable to pushing me towards getting outside.
Its hard to explain the impact its had without sounding odd, I mean I am slightly odd, but its a strange thing.
So, I've started this, to hopefully raise enough to get a new laptop. A fully functioning laptop that would allow me to get back to my love of writing and trying to help myself back to where I used to be mentally.
Any spare change is highly appreciated so I can hopefully reach this goal and help myself.
Thank you.
