Help Me Escape a Toxic and Unsafe Household I never imagined that one day I would have to ask strangers for help simply to build a safe and independent life. I am raising money to leave a toxic household where I have experienced emotional, physical, sexual, and psychological abuse, as well as threats, loss of any kind of privacy, loss of freedom of having my documents, was chased after with the knife by my own parents, threatened and almost killed by them. They attempted 2 times. As well as constant pressure. Living in this environment has had a profound impact on my life and my ability to feel safe in my own home. I am locked inside my apartment. I have no access to help, medical care nor contact with reality, I have no doors in my room, I am not allowed to shower without my mother watching me, I have no food in my fridge. She throws away everything that I owe. I don’t even have enough trousers. I have to wear them for several days until the other pair dries. For a long time, I have been trying to survive, study, and build a future for myself while dealing with circumstances that no young person should have to carry alone. I am now trying to change that. My goal is not luxury. I am not fundraising for an extravagant lifestyle. I am fundraising for a safe place to live, basic living expenses, transportation, food, deposits, documents, and the financial stability I need to become independent. I am currently studying and trying to build a future for myself. I want to finish my education, work, save money, and eventually have a home where I can close the door and know that I am safe. Every donation, no matter how small, brings me one step closer to that. If you cannot donate, sharing this fundraiser would already mean a lot to me. Even helping this reach another person could make a difference. Thank you for reading my story and for giving me a chance to build a life beyond simply surviving. I am not asking for someone to save my entire life. I am asking for a chance to finally build it myself and build it safely.
