Just hoping for a little breathing room

Full story

I never really thought I would be writing something like this. I grew up with parents who struggled with addiction, and unfortunately, some of the consequences of that childhood followed me into adulthood. I ended up with a lot of debt because of circumstances that were not really my own fault. I am still paying it back and I am doing my best to take responsibility for it, even though it means that after everything is paid, there is often almost nothing left for me. I am not asking anyone to pay my debts or fix my life for me. I am working on that myself. I just sometimes wish I had a little bit of breathing room. I live on my own and I have my rabbit Mucki, who is a very important part of my little family. I do everything I can to take care of him and to build a better life for myself. But sometimes even buying groceries or something Mucki needs feels like a difficult decision. This isn’t really meant as a traditional donation request. I know everyone has their own problems and nobody owes me anything. I simply wanted to put my story out there in case someone happens to have a little kindness to spare. Maybe someone wants to help with a few groceries. Maybe someone wants to buy something for my rabbit. Maybe someone simply wants to send a few dollars because they know what it feels like to have a difficult month. I would never expect it, but I would be incredibly grateful. And if all you do is read this, that’s okay too. Thank you for taking a moment to hear my story. ❤️
