my situation has been really bad for a long time, you can read more about it here. to summarize: my father got extremely violent and ended up getting the police called on him and got arrested. i was kicked out for not lying to the police and i’ve been living on the streets since the new year.

i’ve been alternating between sleeping in garbage enclosures on warmer nights and motels on cooler ones if i can afford it. a local pizza place has been giving me their leftover food at the end of the night if they have any. i’ve gone to a few interviews with no luck – nobody wants to accommodate my disability, and i’m not exactly showing up in my sunday best. i’m constantly sick from the weather bouncing back and forth and my body feels like it’s made of lead. but i’m alive, and i genuinely don’t believe that i would be if it weren’t for the generosity, kindness, and support that i’ve received from you guys. thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything, words cannot express my gratitude enough

i hate that i have to ask for more, but i don’t have anywhere else i can turn. the weather is supposed to get nasty again and i’m already ill, i would love to be able to seek shelter until it passes. if you can, please consider sending even a few bucks my way, every little bit adds up and helps more than you realize. i’m not able to consistently reblog this post, so please keep it circulating in my absence. thank you for reading

sorry if this is all over the place, my head is still pounding from yesterday but i tried my best to be coherent. this is the worst my situation has been in a long time. my father has a history of being violent and aggressive when he’s drunk, this time he went too far. i try not to get involved with anything involving my family, but last night i heard screaming from the kitchen and it sounded bad. my siblings and i all came to see what the commotion was just in time to see him swing a frying pan at my mother’s head. 

my youngest brother disappeared and me and my other brother tried to get in between our parents to stop it because my mother was already bleeding but he fought back against both of us, i don’t know what specifically happened to my brother but his face is all bruised and swollen and i got my head slammed against the wall multiple times. my phone ended up shattered on the ground broken beyond repair and i somehow got glass in my foot that i've since removed

idk if my younger brother called the cops or if the neighbors heard what was going on but they showed up, my father told them everything was fine even though several of us were bleeding and obviously not fine. my mother refused to say anything but my siblings and i spoke up and my father is now in jail. my mother told me that i shouldn’t have said anything, i’m a horrible influence, this is my fault as the oldest, i should’ve known better, and that i have until the new year to find somewhere else to live. i have three weeks to scrounge up enough change to try and survive in below freezing temperatures and i have no fucking clue what i’m going to do. 

i’ve reached out to a couple shelters to no avail and i don’t really have IRL friends who can help me. the only thing i can think of is my grandmother or extended family, but they all live 300 miles away and my parents sold my car without my permission so i can’t drive down there myself. i don’t know what to do. i’m so scared and i have nowhere to turn and i have less than a month to figure this out.

i’m going to reach out to my grandmother/family but if all else fails, the cheapest motel in my area is $45/night. i have $13 to my name at the moment. in the next few weeks, i need to secure a place to sleep at night, as well as transportation to get out and away from here, and at least a burner phone from the store, a flip phone will absolutely do and those are like $10-$30 i think. please PLEASE help me monetarily if you can, if not, you can also help just by boosting this post so more people see it. thank you for reading

all of this is because i was trying to defend my mother, just for her to turn around and kick me out. i just don’t know what to do anymore. i don’t have enough money to consistently stay at motels since the cheapest rate around me is $45/night, and that’s going to drain through what i have saved up in only a few days. i know that a branch-specific subscription to the YMCA is $47/month, which will allow me somewhere warm to be during open hours and give me access to showers and drinking water at the very least. i’m scrambling to figure out how i’m going to survive this winter, but i know i’m going to be borderline living out of the YMCA and the library at this point

please PLEASE consider sending a few bucks my way, every little bit helps so much more than words can properly explain. please spread this post around as much as you can, i have a little over a week to get my shit together before i get kicked out into the freezing cold. thank you for reading

sorry if this is all over the place, my head is still pounding from yesterday but i tried my best to be coherent. this is the worst my situation has been in a long time. my father has a history of being violent and aggressive when he’s drunk, this time he went too far. i try not to get involved with anything involving my family, but last night i heard screaming from the kitchen and it sounded bad. my siblings and i all came to see what the commotion was just in time to see him swing a frying pan at my mother’s head. 

my youngest brother disappeared and me and my other brother tried to get in between our parents to stop it because my mother was already bleeding but he fought back against both of us, i don’t know what specifically happened to my brother but his face is all bruised and swollen and i got my head slammed against the wall multiple times. my phone ended up shattered on the ground broken beyond repair and i somehow got glass in my foot that i've since removed

idk if my younger brother called the cops or if the neighbors heard what was going on but they showed up, my father told them everything was fine even though several of us were bleeding and obviously not fine. my mother refused to say anything but my siblings and i spoke up and my father is now in jail. my mother told me that i shouldn’t have said anything, i’m a horrible influence, this is my fault as the oldest, i should’ve known better, and that i have until the new year to find somewhere else to live. i have three weeks to scrounge up enough change to try and survive in below freezing temperatures and i have no fucking clue what i’m going to do. 

i’ve reached out to a couple shelters to no avail and i don’t really have IRL friends who can help me. the only thing i can think of is my grandmother or extended family, but they all live 300 miles away and my parents sold my car without my permission so i can’t drive down there myself. i don’t know what to do. i’m so scared and i have nowhere to turn and i have less than a month to figure this out.

i’m going to reach out to my grandmother/family but if all else fails, the cheapest motel in my area is $45/night. i have $13 to my name at the moment. in the next few weeks, i need to secure a place to sleep at night, as well as transportation to get out and away from here, and at least a burner phone from the store, a flip phone will absolutely do and those are like $10-$30 i think. please PLEASE help me monetarily if you can, if not, you can also help just by boosting this post so more people see it. thank you for reading

all of this is because i was trying to defend my mother, just for her to turn around and kick me out. i just don’t know what to do anymore. i don’t have enough money to consistently stay at motels since the cheapest rate around me is $45/night, and that’s going to drain through what i have saved up in only a few days. i know that a branch-specific subscription to the YMCA is $47/month, which will allow me somewhere warm to be during open hours and give me access to showers and drinking water at the very least. i’m scrambling to figure out how i’m going to survive this winter, but i know i’m going to be borderline living out of the YMCA and the library at this point

please PLEASE consider sending a few bucks my way, every little bit helps so much more than words can properly explain. please spread this post around as much as you can, i have a little over a week to get my shit together before i get kicked out into the freezing cold. thank you for reading
