Smalltown girl’s rocky road

Smalltown girl’s rocky road

I never thought I had to take this option to ask for money online but I will give it a go, since the money is needed. I feel vulnerable to share my story.

I’m a 26yo woman from a smalltown, my goal was to start my own company when I turned 20. I always felt like I wanted to help others reach their full potential, so I started my own personal training business in 2016. The company had a good start and I managed to help hundreds of people in need of a lifestyle change. My biggest accomplishments was starting a senior beach workout for 60+ year olds, seeing their fitness improve was heart warming and the joy in there eyes on each training made me happy. They did not only improve their fitness but also found friends for life.

Fast forward to beginning of 2019, business was going good and I was enjoying my job.

Until one morning everything changed. I was mountain biking and fell in full speed against the concrete. My whole face was in million pieces and upper and lower jaw out of place. Luckily there was a man that saw this and I got help quickly and was rushed to the hospital.

They had to do 2× 6-9hours surgery to reconstruct my face and jaw. I was in the hospital for 2.5months and could not speak, eat or walk on my own. It was a miracle that I survived, they said I must have had a guardian angel with me.

The accident and time in hospital was the most traumatic experience in my entire life.

When I got home I had to wait to get my temporary dentures, because I had lost almost all of my upper teeth. In May I was back with my seniors at the beach with my dentures, which made me feel like a senior myself :D.

Since then, 4years now, I have had to go through 2 more jaw surgeries because of bone loss, over 30+ visits to the dentist, 1 knee surgery in 2022 and now finally they have put the teeth implants in place and are planning my final smile. I have had to use my temporary teeth for 4years so having implants will be a blessing. The wait has been long and hard.

I had never imagined that my 20s would look like this. Despite it all I have tried to stay positive. This accident made me look at life in a different light, how one incident can change your life in a blink of an eye.

I am thankful to be alive and appriciate the smallest things in life even more. Family & friends first, business second. I also learned to have more patience and slow down and focus on myself.

Because of all the surgeries and hospital appointments over the years, I have not had a chance to work as much as I should or put effort in growing back my own business. I have had to regain my strength and recover after each big surgery, which could be months, and have not got the chance to plan anything ahead for my future.

This of course has affected my financial situation to a point that I’m having a hard time paying all the medical bills, mortgage and other expenses.

Shortly after I came home from the hospital in 2019 my best friend; grandma passed away. I bought her house and property, this place means everything to me. Here I have spent my childhood and gone fishing & boating with family, still do. It would be a shame to have to give it all up.

Like I said, now in 2023 the last finishing touches on my recovery journey, after the accident, is being made. New opportunities awaits me, it almost feels like I’m new born. I can finally again plan my future and what I want to do, I know it will include helping others.

I just need some help to get back up on my feet and up and running again, helping others.

Thank you for reading my story♡. You can go follow me on social media to find out more about me and my journey.

I am thankful for every little help I can get. Best regards, Emilia.

Seeking Financial Aid, Recently divorced and orphaned single mother of four beautiful bright children. Please help <3

hi :) I am a recently divorced, single mother, as well as recently orphaned by both my parents deaths. I had a terrible miscarriage right before the divorce and was alone in hospital to deal with it alone. I am deeply still processing the grief brought on by the four events.

I have four beautiful intelligent children, two in primary school and two in highschool. They are what has kept me alive and given me hope to keep striving. I wouldn’t be alive today if it wasn’t for their existence on this planet. They are my heartbeat!! I love them with all my heart and soul.

I was married for 18yrs.  Mentally abused and gaslighted. Manipulated into believing i was mentally ill by my ex as a way for him to cover up his multiple affairs with other other men throughout the marriage.
My mother passed away before the divorce from sudden death where as my father passed away after the divorce, due to his cancer coming back in the brain. Be them both together in bright warm light.
I was a stay at home mom for 15yrs and started working my first job two years ago. I have been struggling to hold on to a job because of post traumatic stress as well as high anxiety. I am still learning how to be independent and mentally strong again. It has a been a slow progress but progress nonetheless.
As i have four children to care for, I must keep financial stability while trying to get back on my feet. It has been a huge emotional and mental struggle but I feel I have made progress.
I recently became unemployed due to the Covid-19 pandemic. I now have to go home to my parents house and start clearing everything out and do it alone as my children are currently staying with their father, due to my financial situation. My family has also migrated back to the USA, leaving me alone here in Malaysia.
I am broke. I have no income or financial aid. I am greatly worried and concerned for the future of the children and mine.
I would deeply appreciate some financial help from anyone who is willing to help me get back on my feet and gain the confidence and mental strength to repair and clear out my late parents home. From there I plan to rent out the house so I have passive income. I can then rent a small apartment and my kids can come live with me again. Please, help me.
I feel lost and hopeless and in a state of panic because of my situation and not being able to be with my children. Everything i do or achieve feels pointless when I cannot have my children under the same roof as me.
Any financial help you can provide  me will be deeply appreciated and paid forward when I am able to reach my goal of passive income from renting my late parents home.
Thank you for your time reading about me, this was very hard for me to do but I just dont know what to do anymore. I hope someone out there can help me. Please take care of yourselves and keep safe.

Starting over

Hello, I am a 23 medicine student from Palestine, I started at the university two years ago right after I got some money from work and with the help of my parents. To be honest, my parents had stable financial status because they worked hard to raise me and my brothers. Things escalated too quickly when we grew up and started at universities, we barely have time to work full week and have some financial issues at banks, me myself have $30,000 debt in bank and I have -$2000 in bank, because I learned BA to continue, I paid them a lot. I work at a small supermarket and I get like $700-$1100 per month and that depends on work, this amount can’t pay my debts and help my parents, that’s why sometimes people here in Palestine end up selling at streets because it’s really hard to live a good life here. My monthly income can’t even feed stray cats and animals outside, I can’t leave them without mercy cause I don’t have money, I believe that God will give me someday for my goods. I don’t really want big amounts to cover my debt but any dollar really helps me, at the end the world is like a circle, everyone helps each other, everyone has a turn. Thank you all ❤️

Support a roofing company

Hi, my name is Roman, I am the owner of a small roofing company – MCY OY. Our company is engaged in roofing works in Estonia. I have been successfully doing roofing work for about 15 years. In the summer of 2022, we completed works worth 26,000 euros. The customer did not pay for these works and filed for bankruptcy. Because of this, we have accumulated a lot of debt. We have a tax debt, because of which we cannot take a loan from a bank to improve our business. Our company employs 5 people. Partially they did not receive wages. Today I would like to pay off my debts and continue the successful operation of my company. Thanks for support

I’m 23 year old, 4 extracted molars, 5 molars went into necrosis (died on their spot). I have trouble chewing, I need implants. But at least, I need to save what teeth can be saved already

Hi, I’m Mahmoud, a 23 yeard old guy from Italy.

I need money for my dental care. Throughout my childhood I always had poor teeth.

2 years ago, I decided to take my teeth health seriously, and now I spend around 45 minutes daily, in teeth cleaning sessions (it’s comprised of swishing, brushing, flossing etc.).
Infact, I clean every teeth individually.

However, for 19 years of my life, I had bad diet (full of sugars and seed oils), and an almost absent teeth care routine.

So now, I carry the results of those 19 years.
My wisdom teeth are perfect, and oral microbioma is good, I almost never have bad breath (even when waking up in the morning)…but I still have almost destroyed teeth from the past. Dental care, doesn’t reverse that, as far as I know.

Big cavities, appearently, can only get worse and worse, since those super-compromised teeth I am talking about, have went through a “necrosis” process (aka dying), with abscess and fever.
Eventually, when the abscess goes away (usually after a week), the teeth is basically dead, it becomes insensitive to cold. But the infection, under the gum, remains, and it puts a burden on the immune system.
Infact, occasionally, my gums gets inflamed under those dead teeth.
No teeth pain, but gum pain and fever.

The teeth need to be extracted, but I have very few molars already (I got 4 removed, and 5 almost completely destroyed), I do most of my chewing on almost-flat teeth.
I want to remove the teeth, but then I would need to replace them with implants, right away, because I already have a hard time chewing.

I finally went to a a private dentist today, after about 6 years without seeing any dentist (I don’t like the way public-healthcare-dentists usually worked, they were shallow and in a hurry, and my dental situation has always been “serious”, it requires “serious” work…I was always afraid to ruin my teeth more than they were already; I would also add that they would often humiliate me on my situation, and I was offended as a child and teenager).

Excluding extraction and implants, the private dentist gave me a quotation of about €3000, to save the teeth that can be saved.

Extraction+implant, are of course, whole different numbers (probably in the 10.000s of Euros).

But all I’m interested in now, is saving the teeth that can be saved, so that I know that in the future, I will have those teeth (my dental care routine, should help with that).

So I’m asking some money in those numbers.
But a few 100s, would be fantastic aswell, since I will be able to fix a few teeth at least.

Thank you very much for reading this.

Happy days!

Mahmoud

€2000 (or $2100) for college student to get through exam month (I have nearly no money right now)

Hi and nice to meet you,

I am a Masters student from India studying at TUM Germany. I have been through a year that I would best describe as a never ending descent into chaos – just when I cannot believe things get worse, they do.

Right now I am short of funds for my student visa application and my education is at crossroads. This is supposed to be my last year of college and I want to get to full-time work and be self-sufficient. Here in Germany, international students can work very limited hours and jobs for them are greatly restricted and there is no way I could earn enough.

The immigration authorities last told me on January 3rd that I need to show adequate funds if I am to continue here. I have been on a wild goose chase since November planning to rake up enough money to show this in my bank account. It was on war footing because last summer a lot of money ended up being spent.

I lost my mother to cancer on August 24th 2022 (after a long struggle of 3 years) – it was supposed to be her last round of chemotherapy. The travel back to India for the last rites and many other medical expenses in 2022 has left us with very little money.

Right now it is just my dad and me. My dad is in India and he is 70 years old. I do not have any siblings or anyone I can really talk to about this. My dad is a heart patient and I do not want him go through much of a financial burden. I wanted to handle my finances by myself and thus ever since November I have been trying to make money quick on war footing.

Granted, some of my decisions were in haste and anxiety – I tried crypto and trading as well and none of my investments did well. One was a good project which lost popularity while the rest ended up being incredibly subtle scams which nearly nobody expected.

Now, let alone money for studies, I do not even have the money to get through the coming days. I have exams starting this month and I need to clear them else I will have to drop out. I do not want to put that disappointment on my father who wanted to see complete my course. I cannot get proper job/visa in Europe here without a Masters degree – they really place an emphasis here on education.

If I do dropout now, it is really over me – there is no alternative life path that I can take. Or maybe there is – but I really do not think now would be the time to explore that with a sick father who wants me to complete my final year and get a decent paying job.

Sorry for the rambling, my plan is now to negotiate with the immigration authorities if they could give me a possible extension for just a month till my exams are done. But for that I will need the basic money to survive for just a month.

I am already unable to focus and feeling sick due to not eating or sleeping well and being unable to focus on my studies. I actually do suffer from adrenal exhaustion and chronic inflammation due to the stress of 2022 and I can really only control that if I have a proper diet and healthy regimen – which I am unable to implement with the lack of money.

I cannot sleep at night, I am up all night brainstorming options (and regretting my decision-making over the past few weeks) – and I sleep very little during the afternoon and I am up again since evening. I have not had enough time or energy to study and I really need to pass these exams. I do not mean to be dramatic – but a lot of times these days I consider ending my life. If I had $1000 – it would  truly save my life.

So in conclusion (my apologies if this was too long), I would really appreciate if you could help me out. I do not have very many days left – I do not have groceries for the weekend. I am going to the local food drive to get a Brezel or few slices of sausage with fries. But I absolutely cannot live like this – right now my bank balance is negative. I really cannot function this month if things are so dysfunctional.

As for images, I have attached certain documents just to substantiate and explain the context behind my request. My insurance payment and rent have not been paid for January and February (I cannot risk being evicted and sick and uninsured)  – I desperately need a way out. The $2000 includes the money needed to pay the these pending expenses of the last month.

Thank you,

(I have a bunch of images below to substantiate my case. The two images below are the unsuccessful insurance and rent payments (if I do not pay these in the coming week I could be evicted from my dorm and suspended from university). I have blurred out information I believe I should not reveal such as my personal details and the contact details of the entities involved. “Miete” means rent in German and Techniker Krankenkasse is the name of my insurance company)

Unpaid Tuition

Hello, firstly, english is not my first language, so my message may not be perfectly fluent but i’ll do my best.

I’m a Moroccan student who lives in France and my widowed mother who lives in Morocco and works as a teacher can’t send me money any more because of some weird money-sending currency limitation rules and also because she doesn’t have enough funds that’s why for the past 4 months i’ve been working as a servant in a restaurant 3 days a week and i’m forced to miss Wednesday courses which is annoying, but it’s not the worst thing, i get paid €130 weekly, i’m looking for a better job but it’s complicated and i’m barely able to afford my rent (€420) plus my monthly consumption, i also generate around €40 monthly from online surveys which helps me meet the ends.

But my big issue right now is my unpaid tuition of €4920 i was able to pay the first half (€5000) but since i can’t receive money no more from my mother it became near impossible to pay the rest, i’ve sold some of my clothes invested around €200 in crypto, but it’s not looking good, and it barely moved the needle. I’ve tried asking for bank loans of €1000, but no bank was ready to provide for me because of my income status.

My school doesn’t offer any financial support options and the government on the other hand got a loan option, but they only apply for French and EU students or international students who have been living 5 years in France with no interruption, which is not my case.

My business school (EM Normandie) has been asking me to pay for the past 2 months but i really can’t do anything about it and i feel so powerless, because if i don’t pay the fees by May/June i can’t do my internship and i won’t be receiving my diploma. I don’t know what to do so every penny counts and i’m also ready to do anything, i’d gladly take donations and any job or mission i need to take. I feel like all the doors are closed and begging for money is the thing that can save me.

My mom have been stressing and family members left us since the death of my late father 8 years ago, we’re alone in this one and so many thoughts have been roaming my mind from stealing, scamming to insurance fraud but i couldn’t, my mom sent me to France for a brighter future and i can’t ruin my 4 years for a silly and stupid act, i really feel weak for the first time in my life and i don’t know what to do. If you can’t help me with money, just contact me with any proposition, if you need more information about my situation or any kind of supportive message.

and everyone who’s ready to help me in any way possible, i’ll be grateful to you for life 🙏

Help me to pay for Childcare

I’m Silvana, a mother of two and a student. I’m living in Croatia with my two little children. I’m completing my third year of BA studies.

 

My elder is 3 years old and the younger just turned 1 year. Their father left us all of a sudden, so I have to figure out everything on my own, which is very overwhelming and difficult at the moment. I was not expecting to be a single parent or be in a situation where I have to fear if I can put food on the table, how would I pay the rent, etc. I had the right to childcare support from the government until recently, 1 year after giving birth, so from last month I’m not receiving any money.

In the last FOUR months, I was trying to enroll my children in kindergarten, but there is no place for babies under 1 year at all, and after that only if BOTH parents are working (legally the father also has the rights until a court decides differently) and there is a free place for the kid. Where we live there is not enough place in government kindergartens so I could only take them to private kindergarten which is very expensive. Due to my situation, I got promises from the kindergarten that the children will be accepted (at this moment there is no place for them), but not before the next school year, so from September. But until then I have to feed them, pay the rent, and pay the utilities. But I can not do that if I’m not working, and not earning money. But I have no place for my children so who will take care of them while I’m at work? I’m so confused and desperate because I want to work, I even have job offers but I can not start working until I organize the childcare for them in private kindergarten.

 

The children’s father left us, and I don’t have any family or support, I’m on my own with two little children and no money.

 

There is a kindergarten which would be a place for us but it costs 500 EUR/month for two children. The government kindergarten’s cost is about 100 EUR/month/child. In Croatia, the average salary is around 800 EUR. If I go to work and earn 800 EUR it wouldn’t be enough for rent (400EUR), utilities (100EUR), food, transport, and private kindergarten (500EUR).

 

I’m here asking good people who are willing to help, for money to pay for kindergarten until September, so I can go to work, as soon as possible. The amount I would need is 8×500 = 4000 EUR. That is the amount I need but ANY help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Addicted student help me pay rehab

I’m a 23 year old medicine student with a serious addiction problem/addictive personality. I was going to write a small piece of text explaining how I got to the low point where I am now, however writing it all down felt pretty liberating so I decided to make it a bit longer.
I am ashamed to be writing this ultimately asking strangers on the internet for money, but I really don’t see a way out of this that doesn’t involve me needing money to 1. Get help fast so that I can keep going with my study and 2. Get financial support for a month or three while I’m in rehab and need to pay my rent etc. I realise that addiction is something way different than what people usually post about on here, but I’m hoping my story will be understood and felt by some of you. I am asking for 5.000€ in order to go to rehab/get a good therapist and help me get through the coming months without financial stress. I promise that I will give it on to the next person needing help, once I’m graduated and am a doctor.

As I am typing this I feel that initial feeling of shame coming back again, but really lingering this time. Thinking about what my future will look like is hard nowadays. I guess that means I’m genuinely scared of how I’ll end up, I feel that I’m on my way to fail in life and I don’t know what to do about it, since it seems to be my character that’s changed. My whole life seems to revolve around two people who I don’t really recognise as me anymore. The version of me writing this to you, full of shame and self-hatred and the version of me drinking, doing all the drugs that he can get his hands on, not sleep for 3 days straight and ultimately blame everyone but himself.

I apparently knew I wanted to become a doctor before I could even pronounce the word stethoscope properly, my mom keeps telling me the story about how my brother and I would get throat and ear infections all the time when we were little kids and how big the difference was,  always, between me being super enthousiastic to go and my brother being horrified of the doctor’s office. I don’t remember those early visits to the doctor, but what I do remember is how I became set on a goal to get into med school quite early in life. I wasn’t the best student of my class in high school, I guess I was pretty average, I forgot to do my homework regularly and would only really get Good  grades for biology, physics and chemistry. Then again, I had the dedication. Those three subjects are the only three that you really need as a med student in my country, so I focused on those and it turned out I could easily  “remember” to do the homework for biology. I would even kinda enjoy doing it. Now this probably sounds like me having been a pretty cringy high school teen being arrogant and feeling too good for classes that I didn’t find particularly interesting, but I wasn’t like that at all. My parents are  lower middle class workers who didn’t have the chances to go to uni like I did. I simply wanted to succeed in getting there, studying, and everything else would follow I figured. After all I had real passion for biology and medicine, and I genuinely wanted to know as much about it as possible.

During The first semester of my first year everything felt new exciting and studying was easy. I really felt that I had found my passion and wanted to be surrounded by the atmosphere of the Academic hospital aa much as possible. Some people  get icky or nervous in hospitals, for me it’s the opposite of that, it feels cozy almost. Now that I think of it, I think I associate hospitals with my grandma, who was in the hospital a lot when I was young but notably was always in a good mood, I also remember how impressed I’d be when a doctor would come in to talk to my grandma or my dad, I guess these doctors, who were generally very kind, intelligent, authoritative men and women-and often acknowledged my existence and that of my brother by giving us a hand even before acknowledging the editors in the room. I think the firm handshakes of those doctors trained my brain to start associating hospitals with coziness. Anyway, you get the point, I liked studying there. Until the pandemic happened and my countries government decided, of course, that we(the students) had te stay in our tiny apartments/rooms for two years and spend our days watching livestreams of lectures. 
 
Now I really tried to do it. I really tried to watch the lectures, do the work and get up everyday while living alone in a city where I didn’t grow up, and moved a few months prior , But I couldn’t do it. The lack of human interaction and really just basic sensory input, drained the energy out of me. That’s when I started getting tired and decided there was no reason to get out of bed anymore, eating one meal a day instead of 3. I think  must have been a month into the pandemic when I gave up on the academic year, luckily I got a job at the covid-testing centre nearby, after about 6 months of being kinda depressed at home. Working was great to keep me occupied during the pandemic and I felt ok with failing the first year because I more or less thought and hoped that everything would be back to normal again the next.
 
As we all sadly know, this wasn’t the case, the pandemic lasted a whole ass year longer. I had to resume my study or give up my student housing, which would mean living with my parents again. Naïvely thinking I could change my way of living “over night”  I started my study up again and failed miserably again due to lack of concentración. I started to doubt myself and started to lie to my parents about how i was doing. I felt really lonely in those two years, I still do sometimes, because I don’t think a lot of people understand me I seem to have all the energy in the word when I’m with s group of people. Yet I’m feeling drsined when I’m alone sitting at my desk watching livestreams. A mother year passed and covid was finally over. That’s when I started to overcompensate…
 
What came next is addiction and hurting the people that love me by fucking myself up so hard that I didn’t’t care about life anymore. Why do I do this? I don’t know. It’s like every time I used something or drank a lot of  alcohol, my brain became more conditioned to be asking for dopamine repeatedly, to the point where I end up not sleeping for 3 days.
 
 I think if you’ve read this far, you’re thinking something in the range of “is this story going somewhere?” Or, “why is this relevant?. “ . It’s relevant because that’s how my brain works apparently. I can’t seem to focus on one thing too long, before branching of to the next one,
like the anecdote  I just randomly threw in about my grandma. In the paragraph I ment to put before this one but had to change because my strategy changes half way writing it. I also turn out to be really impulsive and extremely susceptible to addiction. I believe we can conclude from these three obvious  that I probably have an attention disorder. This has not been diagnosed nor confirmed by anyone even slightly qualified to do so, since I don’t think a doctor can help me figure out the mess in my head at this point, I’d need to be sober for a while to get diagnosed with Something. Wich is what I want ro work ro.
I’ve told you the story of why I think things went wrong with me. I haven’t told you how I’m gonna fix it yet. Here’s the problem, As I’m writing this I am coming back(sobering up) from 3 days of non stop-partying. I’m writing this with shaking hands on my phone, my vision is blurry and I look like a ghost because my face is white from all the blood vessels in my face being in vasoconstriction . The thing is, my impulsive brain seems to forget about the feelings of being a failure and the hope of still landing my study that I have as soon as I drink a few beers or take any drug, something many  functioning people  around me do. It’s normalised where I’m from, to the point that you see people using everywhere when you go out. The triggers are everywhere. I think the only way I can ever function as a doctor is if never use drugs again. But to get rid of that habit is gonna be extremely hard to do where I live that’s why I want to go to a rehab clinic far away. I really can’t make my parents pay, I know they will if I ask, but it’s a lot of money for them and I have already let them down so much. Which is why I decided to share my whole story here in the hope that someone rich could relate to it and help me out.
paypal.me/helppls59
 I need to get my life under control somehow, If anyone reading this has any good ideas/tips on how to tackle this pls send me an e-mail. I would love to hear ftom people who have experience with addiction/want to talk about their own similar problems With addiction/impulsiveness
