Funds for Zoë’s treatment

Hey everyone
As some of you may know I have been battling with anorexia for almost 14 years, and other mental illnesses. It has impacted my mobility, my capacity to work and study as well as major aspects of my physical health. The funds I am asking for are not directly related to my mental health... Recently my wisdom teeth have been causing profound issues. Unfortunately... and as much as I hate to admit it I am very unwell, currently in hospital trying to refeed and nourish my body. There is legitimate concern regarding my risk of death. Sorry to be so morbid. I have recently found out that all 4 of my wisdom teeth need to be surgically removed. I am unable to pay for this surgery. If I am unable to receive this treatment and my wisdom teeth continue to prevent me from eating, my health will decline even further. I am devastated that this has thrown a massive spanner in the works. I want to live a full and meaningful life but as each year passes with ineffective treatment for my ED and other mental illnesses, and despite my trying... my hope and will to do so dissipates.
I feel terrible for getting to this point and I wouldn’t attempt to crowd fund if this wasn’t so life threatening. Part of me does wonder if I am being over dramatic, but I guess it’s time I actually trust in the Drs and consider what they are saying.
I’m trying to view this as an investment in my life. While my depression gets the better of me at times, those around me somehow see great potential.
I always feel as though I owe people things for anything they help with or give me - I can’t give much back. But if I am able to extend my life in anyway possible there are things I want to do. Maybe you will see this as an investment also, rather than an obligation, rather than an expense or burden.
I would finally like to finish my degree - given the iatrogenic harm I have experienced from treatment for my illnesses I’d also like to try and get into law so I can advocate for those who have been deprived of a voice.
For similar reasons, I am writing a book- about my life, but also more as an informative tool for people, students and professionals. In the hope that it may open up pathways for new or different treatment approaches.
I’d like to continue with my art works and share it with the world if possible. I’d don’t really expect to be able to make any money from it... or a book.

Any funds raised which are excess to the funds require to remove my wisdom teeth will either go towards treatment for anorexia, anxiety, depression, ptsd and depersonalisation disorder. And or towards charities which invest in the treatment of others with said illnesses.

I am aware there are those who need funds more than I, I don’t want to go too much into the detail of my grievances because my story also contains that of my friends and family whose privacy it’d like to respect. I also do not want to present to you a tale of woe... but I do worry that my omission of certain information will detract from the very real fragility of my health status.

Thank you for reading and considering all of this. Even if you are unable to help financially, I am truely grateful you have taken the time to read this ‘word vomit’
Stay safe,
Much love
Zoe
