DonatellaInCali<p>I just told my psychologist that if she wants to drop me as a patient, that's fine</p><p>I can't figure out where I stand with her. Sometimes, I get the idea that I'm too far gone and she doesn't want to deal with me</p><p>Other times, I get the complete opposite, that she thinks I don't need sessions with her</p><p>But mostly, I feel that I'm her charity case because my insurance only covers ¼ of her rate. So she puts me on the back burner</p><p><a href="https://mas.to/tags/mentalhealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mentalhealth</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/ptsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ptsd</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/LGBTQIA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LGBTQIA</span></a></p>
Melancholic Mediocrity :v_bi:<p>UPDATE: Good morning, everyone. Here's a breakdown of our progress so far, thanks to everyone's incredible generosity:</p><p>Storage unit: Paid. Our possessions are safe.<br>Phone: Paid. My partner can now still reach me if urgent.<br>Motel room: Tonight and tomorrow paid.<br>Groceries: We have a modest amount on hand (which is a huge improvement)</p><p>We've accomplished all of our original goals with this fundraiser and then some, but now I must humbly ask everyone to rally with us to get our car insurance reinstated.</p><p>I realize that doesn't sound as urgent as everything else but it makes me incredibly nervous. It's the biggest hurdle we have right now, it keeps us even more isolated than our usual hermit lifestyle and is probably exacerbating our various mental ills.</p><p>Plus there seems to be a slight bump in hours at work which might help us stay current if we can just get this huge initial payment out of the way. It's obscene that we're paying almost 50% more because of my credit history, but it's still the cheapest policy around so what choice do I have?</p><p>Therefore I've reset the goal and included what was left from the original. I'm sorry this is such a big ask but it would mean the world to me if we can meet it. (UPDATE: Only $100 remaining!!)</p><p>Tldr; I need the community's help getting our car insurance reinstated. It would bring us huge peace of mind and -- barring any unforeseen disasters -- might be slightly more likely for us to keep current thanks to (cautious) optimism about our situation.</p><p>----------------------------------------------</p><p>Hi everyone.</p><p>It's once again time for me to plead with the Fediverse for <a href="https://beige.party/tags/MutualAid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MutualAid</span></a>. I'm reaching the end of my rope trying to keep up with everything. We've been even more isolated than usual due to having no car insurance which isn't helping our <a href="https://beige.party/tags/MentalIllness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MentalIllness</span></a> (es). I'm still being scheduled lower hours at work -- just enough to rob me of any spoons for anything besides work, but not quite enough to actually survive.</p><p>Our storage unit with all our possessions is past due and in danger. We're almost out of groceries. My phone service just got cut off which makes my vulnerable partner nervous in case there's an emergency. My shift at work tonight won't be quite enough to cover tomorrow's room payment. And I'm apparently going to need to just pop ibuprofen like candy indefinitely for this broken molar.</p><p>One small spot of good news: My partner has been incredibly brave having run out of edibles for his <a href="https://beige.party/tags/PTSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PTSD</span></a>. He's been out for nearly a week now which in the past would be unthinkable, his anxiety would become so severe he'd vomit until he was dehydrated after only a couple of days.</p><p>I swear I'm trying, everyone.. I really want to just give up but I'm trying my best despite this stupid fucking <a href="https://beige.party/tags/BPD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BPD</span></a> and <a href="https://beige.party/tags/ADHD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ADHD</span></a>-addled brain of mine. (I really wish I could get the hang of dissociation.)</p><p>Anyway.. to get us back to not feeling like we're totally drowning would require closer to $800, but I realize that's outrageously excessive, so instead my goal is to at least get our storage unit current and my phone service back up which sadly is also still excessive.</p><p>Please forgive me for the thousandth time, but if anyone is willing AND able to help us please donate to any of the links below. </p><p>If you AREN'T able to contribute, I beg you please DO NOT feel guilty or ashamed. Obviously I couldn't help you any more than you can help me, if our situations were reversed; so if all you can offer is a boost then boost away with a clear conscience because sometimes <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Solidarity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Solidarity</span></a> is literally the best folks like us can do right now.</p><p>Venmo: <a href="https://venmo.com/thegizmotwins" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">venmo.com/thegizmotwins</span><span class="invisible"></span></a><br>Cashapp: <a href="https://cash.app/$thegizmotwins" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">cash.app/$thegizmotwins</span><span class="invisible"></span></a><br>PP: penguinpower8182@gmail.com<br>GFM: <a href="https://gofund.me/12171be3" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">gofund.me/12171be3</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>
