Abused trans man will be homeless by August 30

Never in all my twenty-two years of life did I ever imagine being in this kind of situation. But here I am, with little to no other options. My name is Lucas and I am a Portuguese trans man in danger of being homeless. For the better part of my life, my parents have sought to control every aspect of my life, down to every decision I have ever made. Until recently, I have been willing to tolerate their constant abuse, manipulation and desire to control me. In order to become independent from them, I made the decision to start working so I could eventually move out, a decision they have not taken lightly. A result of this decision, was the ultimatum that I could continue allowing them to control every aspect of my life – or I would have to get out. They now want me out of their home by the end of August.

I have little to no savings to my name, as they saw fit to help themselves to my money without my knowledge and consent – and refused to pay it back when asked. Due to the lack of savings, I am now in danger of becoming homeless, as I have nowhere safe to stay. Emergency housing is unavailable to be due to my location, and is  difficult to get to. I am currently battling depression and severe anxiety attacks, and the uncertainly of the next month is making it more difficult to cope.

I begin working in September, but from now until then, I do not have the means to provide for myself. I can survive with the bare minimum of resources, but I need help. I understand the times are tough and covid is impacting everybody, but If you are in a position where you can donate, even the smallest amount, I would be eternally  grateful. If you cannot, I would greatly appreciate if you shared this.

Thank you for taking the time to read and contribute.
