Hi my name is Andrea Starbird and I am not too proud  to ask my online community for some help. I am an artist/musician that is disabled by PTSD and fibromialgia.  I am currently without any income till my SSI gets reinstated. Bills are due and I don't know what else to do.  Your help would be greatly appreciated and you would be creating some good karma. I know there are good people in this world. People that wouldn't let another person do without if they could help it. I am counting on it.  I need a little miracle here and I know good things happen all the time.  We are all one, we have to take care of eachother. Any amount is greatly appreciated.  I have complete appreciation for everything I have. I do my very best to stay positive no matter what, but I gotta say the stress of being broke with PTSD and Fibromialgia is killing me. I haven't been sleeping much and I am in pain. It's taking it's toll on my health and sanity. I am having so much anxiety! Still I am doing much better than I ever have. I was on psych meds for 24 years. I no longer have nightmares or flashbacks. I have worked very hard to be a sane good person. There is no going back now. I am struggling to avoid ever being medicated again. I don't want to have to go there. So here I am asking for help. I want to give back in any way I can. I think the most important thing I could do is to tell my story.  Other victims of child abuse need to know that PTSD can be healed. That no matter how bad it was things can get better. To know that love really does conquer all. That even if the first part of your life was so difficult that it caused a brain injury that tooks years of recovery things can still turn out just fine. You can still be happy and have self love. That just because bad things happenend you are not ruined. There is plenty of hope. It's all around. Don't give up. The world really is a wonderful place when you focus on the good stuff. I am super grateful for my life. I wanna keep it together to tackle such an endevor. That is how I want to pass on the good karma.
