Escaping my lifelong abuser

Donation protected
 Hello, my name is Edin Romero. I am 24 years old a pre-op trans man in dire need of escaping my increasingly abusive mother.
 
May 21st, 2022 
 
I called the police at 3:41 pm because my mom had taken my phone away. She had already called her friend Sarah Murphy to come over and back me into my mom's bedroom, again without my phone. At this point, I am 24 years old. The phone is entirely my property. I paid for it in full from eBay approximately three years ago.
 
Her friend Sarah came over before the police got to the home. I showed the officers a few of my videos of her in the past attempting to have the police come to the apartment to arrest me for washing glass dishes that had previously contained cat food in the sink. I also included another video of my only brother John Romero unplugging the tv in front of me to keep me from watching tv in the house freely. The police did not make an arrest but did warn that they would arrest someone if they were called back.
 
(((My mom, Dawn Romero, has an arrest record for domestic abuse. On May 19th, 2019, she left scratches on me while trying to pry the tv remote out of my hands. She then called the police when unsuccessful.)))
 
My mom then signed a wrongful involuntary mental health evaluation around 10 pm on the 21st 2022 and had me sent to assessment.
 
At the evaluation, I told them about her previous arrest record for domestic abuse against me.
I also informed them about the police coming to the house earlier that day. The doctor released me at 3:27 am and advised me this was possibly a retaliatory action against me since she could not turn the story in her favor when the cops were here. Hence, she played the mental health responders into having me involuntarily evaluated.
 
I have secured a rental and have two jobs, but I cannot make the capital to move out on such short notice. Please consider helping me move out. living with a controlling narcissist is no safe place for a sane person to live.
