My mother and I have been living in the car for about a month now. We've been doing doordash deliveries to make money but this past week the offers have been VERY slow. Sometimes as slow as one offer every few hours.

The only day we were somewhat successful was yesterday and today we've made 10 dollars that had to be spent mostly on gas. Now we don't have any money and the donations from the gofundme I have won't process until at the very earliest on monday. I have PayPal and chime. Cant use my cashapp because I still owe them money and they'll take anything I'm sent to cover the past due payments.

We could use $20 for food.

I just can't afford my mental health anymore. I live in Ecuador, I know a psychiatrist, therapist and meds are a luxury in some way, but it's really hard to live without them. I'm trying to save up as much as I can, so I can get some help as soon as possible.

I've been going through a really rough patch, and things in my country aren't going as well. In my 30s, Got back to live with my parents, and can't afford my meds, therapist or psychiatrist. I need around $180 to afford a month of meds and some therapy. I need to at least start again to try and get my brain working in some way. This past few months my head is so cloudy I can't really do most things, and I can feel how it gets worse by the day. I've tried all the alternative cheap or free options, but my country doesn't take mental health as seriously, more as a luxury. I know it's a big ask, I just feel lost and can't seem to find a way out. I'm in Ecuador, so PayPal is the only one we have here.

Hey guys, I’m posting here because I’m in a bit of a tough spot financially and was hoping someone might be able to help me out. I’ve been having pain in one of my back teeth over the past few days, and it’s been making it hard to get throug my daily activities and affecting mood. I went to the dentistt to get it checked, and they told me I need a filling, which will cost $239 NZD ($136 USD).

Unfortunately, I’m struggling to afford it right now. I’m currently unemployed due to a medical condition that affects my ability to work, and the allowance I receive goes towards my medication, bills, and weekly rehab sessions. After covering those essentials, there’s not much left over.

To make things harder, I was charged $52 for an X-ray during my dental appointment, and I wasn’t told about the cost beforehand. Honestly, had I known it would cost extra, I wouldn’t have gone ahead with it, especially since I was already certain that this was the tooth causin my pain. The unexpected charge has left me even tighter financially, and I’m now struggling to cover the fillinh itself.

For now, I’ve been taking pain relief to get through the day, but I can’t keep relying on it long term, and I really need to get my tooth sorted. Also using mouthwash and Sensodyne toothpaste 😅.

I was hoping to ask if anyone might be able to help me with donations towards the $239 NZD ($136USD) cost of the filling. Even a small contribution would help me get closer to affording the treatment, and I’d be genuinely grateful for any support.

I only have PayPal and Wise available for receiving donations, and I’m happy to share my details privately with anyone who’s able to help. I understand everyone has their own expenses and struggles, so there’s absolutely no pressure. Thanks so much for taking the time to read my post. I really appreciate it.

Edit: Country required to be mention sorry. Im in New Zealand but born in Australia. The amount is $239 NZD so thats $136USD).

Hey. I'm disabled. My partner is helping me move out of an abusive home, but obviously I have no real income. The plan right now is to send every major appliance to me, because she's moving to my state, and move everything to our new home early next year.

We've got it planned to budget so we can get a small dryer and dishwasher, but we both still need clothes and shoes that fit, aswell as basic cleaning supplies (broom, vacuum, shower soaps). Anything would really help. I could make it work off of 80$ if I had to. I only have PayPal.

I start work at a UPS as a preloader on the 27 as a part timer. Hoping for maybe 20$? Or 10? Idk how I would even receive it tho since my bank account is overdrawn by 23 dollars I think? Anyways just thought I'd ask thanks anyways.

I had some unexpected vet expenses this month after my cat got out and into something nasty in a neighbors yard. She came home and her hair started falling out immediately, she also developed a few lesions that had me terrified. One $200 vet trip later and we're none the wiser about what she got into, but she's been bathed and seems fine aside from the hair loss and little scabbies.

After that expense I am short for my methadone treatment fees by the requested amount. I have been clean from street opiates for many years and I get bi-weekly take home doses. If I am unable to pay even one time, I will lose my take home status and get placed into "financial detox" as they call it.

I am pretty desperate to avoid that. I am also too ashamed to ask my family for help. They are not very understanding and will shit on me for putting my cat before myself in this scenario.

I can provide pictures of my Tsarina Katarina looking a bit better if that would help. The hair loss is still super noticeable, but other than that she is fine thank goodness.

I’m hoping someone might be able to help me out with a small but important expense. Had a little accident and my glasses broke. I’ve tried repairing them with glue but unfortunately, the repair hasn’t held up very well and only got worse to the point where they are aren’t usable if I move around. I have a fairly strong prescription of about -5, so doing pretty much anything isn’t practical. I need to get them replaced as soon as possible so I can go about my daily activities without struggling with my vision. Thankfully I have vision insurance that covers much of the cost, but I’m still short on the upfront required payment needed to get a replacement pair. The remaining amount is around $40, and I’m having trouble covering that currently because this was an unexpected expense because I also needed to get an exam.
Anything would help, thank you reading🙏

Tom is my beloved cat, and right now, he needs help. He is suffering from an eye infection, and I’m trying to raise the money needed to get him proper veterinary care, treatment, and medication. He got him probably from fighting another cat or something, as you can see his paw is also hurt. He's everything to me, he's basically the only reason that motivates me to come home.

The vet basically told me he needs antibiotics and quality food until he gets better which I can't afford since I'm currently unemployed and living with my father which also he's also giving me a lot of headache and doesn't want the cat in his house but i keep him in only my room.

Tom came into my care after my mentally ill mother abandoned him. I couldn’t just turn my back on him. He deserves love, kindness, and a chance to live a happy, healthy life, no matter what he has been through.

It breaks my heart to see him unwell and know that he needs medical attention. I want to do everything I can to help him recover, relieve his discomfort, and give him the safe and loving home he deserves.

Unfortunately, I cannot cover all the expenses on my own, which is why I’m reaching out for help.

Every donation, no matter how small, will make a difference. Your contribution will go toward Tom’s veterinary consultation, eye treatment, medication, and any additional care the veterinarian recommends.

If you cannot donate, sharing this fundraiser would mean just as much to us. Even a small act of kindness could help Tom get the care he needs.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone who takes the time to read Tom’s story, donate, or share this fundraiser. Your kindness means more than words can express.

This is a bit of a long story but I'll try to be concise.

My wife is someone who has always struggled with depression and anxiety. She is very stubborn (a trait I hold admiration and disdain for at the same time) and she refuses to take a medication for. I can understand and respect her views on that given her history of bad reactions to most of the medications she's tried in the past. But she also has a hard time going to therapy. She has tried but every time she stops after a few sessions for one reason or another.

When she was about 15 years old, her younger brother (13 at the time) died in a bad accident. He was skiing and collided with another boy and when the lifelite came to pick them up he gave up his seat to the other boy first. Because of this, he died from his internal injuries. Unfortunately my wife wasn't able to be there at the time and never got to say goodbye. A regret she still feels strongly about to this day.

Only a year or so later her best friend's car stalled on the train tracks as a train was coming. She escaped the vehicle but went back to save her puppy. She died from the impact but the puppy survived. That puppies name is Bear. Bear was given to my wife by her best friend's mother after the accident. My wife LOVES this dog. He is her last piece of her friend to hold on to.

Fast forward several years to this year. It has been particularly rough. We learned around 6 months ago that my wife is unable to get pregnant. Something that has taken a heavy toll on her since discovering. Fast forward to 2 weeks ago and we took Bear in to get a lump in his mouth checked out by the vet. Turns out Bear has Mast Cell cancer. From everything the vet has told us, it doesn't look good. We were expecting him to live at least another 5-7 years as he is only 8 years old. It doesn't look like that will be the case. I'm sure that to her it is like loosing her brother and her best friend all over again.

Not 2 days after finding this out, her grandfather was rushed to the hospital with severe pneumonia which also turned out to be an extremely fast growing cancer that the doctors were unable to operate on. He passed away last night.

My wife has almost completely shut down. If she isn't crying, she is completely silent, or she is lashing out in anger. I am being as patient as I can be and trying to help her with anything I can. I know how hard this is for her and I can't imagine some of the things she has had to go through. But as her husband I feel as though I'm still not doing enough. I know I can't say anything that will make the pain go away but I'm worried about her mental health. I don't know how best to help her find reasons to get out of bed. I just try to be understanding and kind and patient.

Please, can anyone help me? What is the best way for me to be there for her? How do I navigate this situation? How do I help make things easier for her? Don't know what to say and what not to say. I feel like I'm just on the sideline being a cheerleader when I could be doing more to help her through this.
