I found this group by mistake, hopefully I was lead here for help. Before I start, I want to say, I have never had anything like this happen to me. This last year has been the worst year of my life. I have never had any mental health issues in the past, but starting in September 2023 I have been in 7 episodes of Psychosis, I was locked up on mental health wards scared and alone. I still haven’t really stabilized enough to work, I haven’t worked since September 2023 because I am a nurse I will not risk a patients life, if I am not stable my patients would be at risk. I have applied for disability but it takes forever. I do not have any money to my name. I normally work 55-60 hours a week and have been for years, me not being able to work have definitely taken it’s toll on me, mentally and physically. I have no one to ask for help, most of my relatives are deceased and my siblings are all struggling as well. To top all of this off, my daughter is pregnant and I have been unable to help her get things for her baby and its her first she needs EVERYTHING! I feel like such a failure. I really need help with basic necessities like groceries, gas, soap, toilet paper, soap, dish soap, paper towels etc I am of course swimming in debt because of my mental health (still no clear diagnosis) issues and not being able to work but I will be SO HAPPY to receive ANY help. I really want to believe that there are kind hearted people out there in a world where kindness doesn’t seem to matter.
