Hi,

I'm currently on benefits dealing with a lot of debt after a rough 5 years, following losing all my life savings and cash from startup exit, severe depression and dealing with an illness. Many rents, bills and taxes unpaid, money owed to friends, etc.

However, I've been improving consistently and I have faith I'll make it through. I'm expecting a small amount of money from a legal proceeding that will give me 3 months of runway to turn things around.

But for the moment, I'm out of things to sell and benefits don't cover food for the whole month. I don't know when the money is going to come (for full disclosure, it's a tiny amount of crypto from the Cryptopia hack), and I'm not yet in a position to make some. I'm also out of friends to ask money from, and I've unfortunately been isolating myself these past 5 years.

My email is in bio, I also put a BTC address if that's more convenient.

I'd appreciate any amount, a few hundred $ would go a long way right now, as I could purchase some health-related things to help in this time, and be less stringy with food purchases.

Thanks for reading, and good luck to all, L.
