I snapped
July 22nd, my girlfriend went into inpatient seeking ECT to help with her PTSD, depression, and anxiety before it once again escalated to extreme self harm and multiple suicide attempts.
Today, July 24th, her abusive father cut her off from family health insurance, meaning that when she gets ECT, she will be left alone to shoulder thousands of dollars of medical debt.
The only choice she has now is to beg her abusive mother for previously promised child support money, which she likely won’t get or will have to jump through hoops and grovel at her mother’s feet for. That money won’t even cover half the costs of ECT.
She will need anywhere from at least $2,000 to $3,000 to cover the costs.
That’s Wholesome.
