Diana's Desperate
Donation protected
My name is Diana. I am single, no kids. I am currently desperate for some help.
I have not had any devestation happen to me recently, yet here I am. How much of my life do I divulge? None of it has been easy; being raised in part, by a pedophile, shaded my childhood in grey, from the start. Where there should have been colour, there was only grey. I grew up keeping much to myself, because, who would want to know?
I struggled through nursing school, leaning on family and friends for strength. After graduation, I eventually ended up working in the psychiatric as well as the corrections feilds. I spent approx. 14 yrs in these areas, working with some of the most violent offenders in Ontario. While I managed to avoid physical harm, many of my friends/ colleagues did not. Whether these incidents were witnessed or not, each began to take it's toll on my mind.
Anxiety has always been a part of my life, 3 yrs ago, I started having panic attacks. The nightmares started about a year ago. In this time, my memory, concentration, and overall cognitive state has been in decline. While I do see Drs, and take the prescribed medication, I have not been able to function well enough to support myself financially. I receive a pension $1000/mo. I am in the process of starting an errand running business, which will hopefully help in the near future.
I am embarrassed to have to ask for help, but my bills are so behind that my utilities are in the process of being shut down. I am reaching out out of desperation at this point, to any friends out there in a position to help. until i can get back on my feet again. This money will 100% go towards utility bills, and I would be eternally grateful for any help you can give.
Thank you
