Hello everyone,

I'm finding it very hard to take this step, which is shameful for me...

My name is Marion, I'm 31 and I'm from Normandy in France.

I'm a very active person. I've always worked, held several jobs and given a lot of my time to things that made sense to me... Helping others.

This time it's me who needs help.

I wouldn't say it's not vital, but it is a little. I'm stressed, anxious, lacking in self-confidence, my mind is always in turmoil... I want to get out.

I'd like to find myself again, be confident and blow off this debt. I don't want to ask my family either, out of personal pride. But also because it's a bit complicated...

To explain the situation 3 years ago, I made some mistakes and I'm paying for them. I took out loans to help my relationship...

Now that I'm no longer with him, I'm dealing with the situation on my own. But it's getting heavy for me personally. It was a complicated (toxic) relationship. So money problems + health problems + problems with cars or housing...

It's becoming too much to bear.

Following this separation, I returned to my parents' house in a shambles, lower than I'd ever been. But I managed to get back on my feet after a difficult year (shrink, psychiatrist, crying, feeling rejected....) and the after-effects are still perceptible... but I've bounced back and I've found a job that I really enjoy (helping others, especially young people).

That's why I'm appealing for even the smallest donation that could help me get my head above water so that I can move forward more serenely and get back to a more 'normal' life and be proud of myself. Because that's the biggest gift I could have. To be proud of myself. But to do that I need to take this difficult step for the first time in my life and I hope for the last time. To ask for help.

If you want to help me too, I really thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Marion
