Hi friends, I am looking for some help. Earlier this year I took out a loan to pay for some mental health support that was not covered by my insurance. I thought I would be able to pay it off easily with fire season and so took a risk and went above my means to access it. To save money on rent since employee housing wasn’t available for females on my crew I decided to live out of my truck for my fire season in the Eastern Cascades of Washington. When my truck then broke down and came out of the shop with a $4k repair, I felt pretty sunk but called it my rent and went on, determined to keep trying. Two and a half months of barely any days off later, I could not hold it together and I left my job. The last couple of months have been difficult for me to function. I just drove across the country to be with family.
Big love to you, you wonderful being! Thank you so much for asking for help, for modeling asking for support, for believing in yourself and loving yourself enough to take that loan out to begin with. You have done nothing wrong here, we live amidst some of the most heartbreaking broken systems and this is just one of many that is hurting you right now. Your courage is inspiring to me! I wish I could help more financially, but if you ever need an ear or a pen pal, I'm here. You are not alone!
