Ariel, 14 years old, PA | 1 DAY WAITING | NEEDED BY 03/20

Wish submitted by:

Ariel is an extraordinary person who has faced significant challenges from an early age. Her mother passed away during the COVID-19 pandemic, leaving Ariel and her siblings to live with their father, who was both mentally and physically abusive. Ariel is living with her aunt and is in therapy. She is just beginning to feel comfortable expressing her true feelings to others. Despite everything she has endured, Ariel has a strong desire to help children who feel unheard. She aspires to become a child psychologist in the future.

Ariel is a sweet young lady who struggles with depression and anxiety. Because of this, she finds it difficult to make friends and maintain a positive outlook on life. Ariel spends most of her time in her bedroom, which she keeps dark on a daily basis. Following a recent incident of self-harm, she has decided that she would like a TV in her room for her birthday. Having a TV in her personal space will allow her to watch movies and listen to music freely, which can help her feel calmer and lift her spirits.
