Housebound & need cleaning help to stay housed.

G'day, my name is Lee and I'm not okay. I hate having to make these things, I always feel useless, but I have been told this isn't negotiable. So here it is, and thanks for reading.

I have been housebound with severe agoraphobia for the past 5+ years and am considered disabled as a result. Alongside this, severe generalised and social anxiety has resulted in situational and selective mutism that has impacted my ability to make phone calls.

As a result of these issues, I cannot go outside for longer than a minute or two at a time, and only at night if at all. This has meant I cannot maintain my yard as needed any more, and so as summer approaches and grass growth kicks into overdrive, I cannot afford to have my lawns mowed as often as needed. The longer they go without being mowed, the more it costs to do them.

I am also unable to dispose of household waste as much as I need to. I can put the household garbage bin out maybe once every 2 weeks if I'm lucky, but things that don't fit or cannot go in household garbage have started to accumulate in my house, leading to some nasty involuntary "hoarding" issues that now require the hire of a skip or dumpster to dispose of, and a cleaner to deal with the aftermath of the cleaning.

All of this has resulted in my housing provider threatening to end my lease if I do not have these issues sorted out. I can't blame them, but being forced to move out is not an option I have for obvious reasons. I am isolated, with no friends or family nearby that I can feasibly rely on to help with any of these tasks. So I have turned to crowdfunding to pay people to help.

End of the day, I am asking for this money to provide at least 5 days hire of a skip bin (to allow me to discard items at my own pace to avoid panic attacks), to pay for my lawns to be tended until the end of the growth season, to hire an indoor cleaner to clean the house post clean-out, and if I'm lucky an outdoor cleaner to tend to the outside of the house (walls, windows, roof/gutters etc).

This is a lowball, and I am aware of it. There's a lot that needs doing thanks to 5+ years of it not getting done or not done often enough, but I just can't ask for the actual approximate $3000 it will end up costing for all of it. I already feel guilty asking as it is. But without these things being done, I risk being evicted, a state that could see me potentially in hospital or worse.

Thank you again for reading, and know that even if you can't help, I appreciate you even bothering to read this far.

Thank you.
