A Fresh Start After Losing Everything to Mental Health.

Hi, my name is Patrick, and I never thought I’d be here, vulnerably asking for help. But after losing my job due to a mental health disability, I’ve realized that healing sometimes means reaching out instead of pushing through alone.

For years, I poured my heart into helping others through mental health support work. But when I faced my own mental health crisis, everything changed. Instead of compassion, I was met with misunderstanding… and eventually, I was let go from the very job where I had once made a difference.

The truth is: I didn’t choose this battle. Anxiety and depression took over, and while I’ve been doing the inner work to recover — therapy and healing practices — I’ve now reached a point where I can’t keep going without support.

I’m asking for help to:

Cover basic living expenses while I heal and get back on my feet

Keep my wellness project alive to help others who are struggling too

Restore stability in my life so I can give back from a place of strength, not survival

If you’ve ever felt broken, unseen, or unsupported during your darkest hour, then you understand how much this means. Every contribution — big or small — brings me one step closer to rebuilding my life and paying it forward.

Thank you for seeing me. Thank you for helping me hold on to hope.

With deep gratitude,

Patrick
