    hi everyone! many of you know me, many of you don't. i've struggled with alcohol addiction, homelessness, multiple mental disorders, and trauma for 10 years on and off. i'm on my sobriety journey, and it's been hard. i relapsed again early this year due to being in an abusive household, and returned to rehab in february. my friend, also from maryland, came to montana to help me recover and build a life. we are homeless and living at a campsite. it's hard. i have an hour commute to work right now and all of my pay goes to keeping our spot, gas, and to my dog. i push my art, try to use my platforms to make money, but it doesn't work. if you know me, you know i've made gofundme's in the past. no luck. i've gotten hate for them. but i'm trying again. if you know me, you know when my dad passed i was gifted an inheritance. that all went away in a year because of addiction and homelessness. mental health. i work my ass off and i want to be better. every dollar helps, and i wish i could thank anyone. if they donate. our main goal is to get enough for a deposit on a house, get essentials, etc. life is a dance, go with the motions.
    Hi! For those that don't know me , my name is Sage and i'm 28 years old. i've been suffering with severe alcohol addiction for 10+ years now and it's why killed my father a few years ago. In 2024, it got to the point i was drinking a gallon of cheap liquor everyday. By 26 years old, i had kidney failure, my liver was failing, and i was dying. I went into inpatient rehab twice in 2024, spent 4th of july, christmas, and thanksgiving there. only to relapse after both times. I moved across the country almost a year ago today, and was maintaining steady sobriety for awhile. I relapsed last fall, then again months later. These last two months i have been steadily relapsing. Drinking day and night, many days. My household environment was a huge factor. I've been in and out of the hospitals again, and i'm terrified of what could happen if i continue. So, i left the toxic house and decided to go back to rehab, but here in montana. I'll be residing at Recovery Centers of Montana Women's Lodge. It's absolutely beautiful and i'm excited to go. I will be out of work for 32 days, on top of the week i currently am missing and the days i missed in the hospital. Only being there two months, i'm lucky that i'm even approved loa. However, i'm creating this to leave up while i am away in hopes to have a small cushion to come back to. Stability is so important in recovery, and being able to live again once you're out of treatment is so necessary. I'm so grateful for everything i have. Thank you everyone who's supported so far. If you'd like to write me a letter , or send cash, please use : Recovery Centers of Montana Sara (Sage) Pemberton Women's Lodge 9549 US Route 2 Martin City , MT 59926 Thank you. I'm grateful and blessed.

    Hi! My name is Sage (they/them). I lost my place to live suddenly about a month ago, and have been living in a tent on someone's property since. I'm in alcohol recovery, seven months sober! My food stamps were cut, as I moved from MD to MT in March, I was using them this whole time. Suddenly they were taken. I'm unable to doordash , and right now I can't find a job because my dog is staying with me. We hope to built a dwelling soon for me to live permanently, but that of course has its own costs. I'm seeking help for food, supplies, and keeping warm at night. It's brutal during the day, pretty hot. Cold at night, but it's only going to get colder. Anything sent will be so appreciated from us both! Trying to stay strong and healthy , too. Mentally and physically. Thank you in advance
