I never thought I'd have to make one of these or would be in the situation I'm in but I've made this as a last fight to get on my feet again and another chance at life.

May 7th 2025

The day before my birthday I lost my place and became homeless, I fought hard to keep things running as long as possible but with the cost of housing it became too much to handle. For the past year till now I've been homeless without a safe place to rest my head at night.

I don't have family to ask for help and the ones I reached out to said "No!" or just ignored me.

My friends have kept me alive and supported me throughout this terrible year of hell and I'm so ever grateful! ❤️

What the funding is for

All the funds are going to temporary housing costs, food, getting ID updated and of course towards permanent housing costs like first and last month's rent.

May 15th 2026

This was a terrifying day, after not eating, not drinking water, not sleeping and having a double ear infection I started to vomit then proceeded to collapse and hit my head. I'm doing much better now! But this moment shook me to my core. Losing control of yourself to medical issue and feeling like you can't help yourself was scary. I realized after that I needed to do something drastic to try and get help so I decided a GoFundMe was going to be my last chance to try and change my life for the better.

No help from government or social services

Due to being unhoused I only qualify for just a little over 300$ a month (I know it's a crazy low amount) 300$ for food a month alone is impossible let alone to land a place and pay rent.

Recently after a year finally got put onto a high priority for housing but that still could take weeks to months. Good news but leaves me with a big fight still ahead of me.

Shelters are extremely unsafe environments, I felt more safe on the streets then in the shelters. They force you to sign NDA's so you can't talk about what happens in them after hearing directly from people who refuse to stay in them due to being attacked or robbed of their belongings I just couldn't risk my life or the little bit of things I have. They refused to even allow you to have a phone on you for safety...

How I've kept alive this far

• Walking for hours and hours normally 15+ hours a day.

• When there is funds I rent a cheap hotel that I don't need to give a deposit to.

• Public transit and riding it for hours.

• GO Transit I've used the buses and long rides to catch sleep even if a little bit because it's safe.

• Friends support wheather it was food gift cards or funds. Thank you ❤️

Mental Health

About a month ago I had the darkest moments of my life. I wasn't able to find anywhere to sleep for 4 days and was without food/water. I began repeating that I was "done with trying" and that I was ready to "not be here anymore", without going into the dark details the police were called and I was on a 24hr suicide watch. Not my proudest moment but when you get to the bottom of the barrel after fighting for so long you lose hope, you lose yourself quickly.

Doing a bit better lately again thankfully to the friends who refused to watch me suffer thank you, the generous help from people who care about me was the reminder I needed to keep fighting.

I've dealt with depression and anxiety my entire life and by going through this all it has gotten worse. Anyone who deals with either of these or both know what it's like, feels like being in a tight space and not being able to breath.

Speacial Thanks

Taking a moment to thank everyone who has checked up on me or helped me in anyway the past year, thank you for showing unconditional love, support and compassion throughout these dark days and year. I wouldn't be here still without you! Even when you thought that 5$ would do nothing to help me the fact is that 5$ kept me alive, it fed me and gave me the energy to keep pushing forward.

Thank you ❤️Love you all

Final Thoughts

No one needs to contribute or feel they need to, this is just here as to have something to get support. I just want another chance at life and to make things better for my life. Thank you for even reading all this as it's very embarrassing and emotional. I hope after reading this people will feel more compassionate for the people they walk by on the streets who are suffering.
