Anyway just suggestions. I really wish I could give you the financial means to just take some time off - you deserve it. As for fundraisers they are usually for a specific thing, like moving expenses, rather than general expenses. I've held 3 fundraisers for others, and one was held for me after a fire. I personally don't see it as "begging" but some do hold that opinion. Let's hope they are never in a position to need to ask for help.
Making a fundraiser for a specific issue is a good suggestion. For example you found a cheaper place or moving with your mom but have no money for movers, or you need money for a vet visit for a pet or got to buy medication and have no health insurance. Maybe like my rent is due and I can’t pay it next month? I think go fund me is always for a specific thing.
Thanks for this!
