Hi, my name is Austin and I’m 27.
This is one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to write.
For a long time now, I’ve been struggling with addiction, and it’s taken more from me than I ever thought possible. It’s stripped me of stability, cost me everything I owned, and pushed away the people I love. Over time, I’ve found myself completely alone, stuck in a dark place that feels harder and harder to escape
I take responsibility for where I’m at—but I’m finally at a point where I don’t want this life anymore. I’m tired of the cycle, and I’m ready to make a real change and get clean.
I’ve found a rehab program that can take me in, but my health insurance won’t cover the cost. My family and friends have reached a point where they can’t help me anymore, and I understand why—but it leaves me here trying to figure this out on my own.
I’m asking for $500, which will cover a 2-week inpatient program and give me the chance to finally start getting clean. If by some chance I’m able to raise more than that, it would allow me to stay for the full 30-day program, which I know would give me a much stronger foundation to truly turn my life around.
This is not easy for me to ask, but it honestly feels like my last real chance to change. If this doesn’t work, I don’t know what will come of me—but I’m still here, still trying, and still praying every day for a miracle and a way out of this
If you can help in any way, even just by sharing this, it truly means more than I can put into words.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and for giving me even a small chance at a different life.
