Hello! I recently got a car on Mother's Day. I made this investment because the bus isn't always reliable. Since getting the car, I have been able to pick up more shifts at my job, complete more errands, and pickup/drop off my children at school without having to rely on school transportation or anyone else. The school doesn't always have transportation available, and my mother is unable to walk since she has vertigo and other health issues, I don't want her passing out in this heat walking them. This car has made it easier to get to appointments; I've had to cancel many times in the past because of transportation issues.

Recently, I have found myself suffering greatly from severe anxiety and depression which has made it somewhat difficult for me to get through my shifts. The harassment I've been experiencing at work has not helped. It is very hard to deal with this as I sometimes feel stuck in an endless cycle unable to get ahead but also feeling like a failure and thinking the worst of how people perceive me. This along with other very personal stressors in my life often leaves me somewhat unable to cope and I just find myself breaking down and crying over things I'm trying to fix but feel almost unable to. 

I just need some kind of hope, because the financial burden I've been experiencing has mostly been caused by my mental health. I am currently financing the car until it's paid off, which would take maybe 7-8 years. I am starting this fundraiser in hopes that I can get some relief with these payments, because it's about $479 a month, plus I must pay rent, electric, and basic household supplies. We have food stamps and WIC, and I know how to budget so at least that is one less thing to worry about. 
I thank everyone who takes the time to read this. Please pray for my family. Thank you and God bless!
