Struggling to pick up the pieces of a new life
Donation protected
My name is Winter, a simple Autistic trans lesbian. My life is devoted to advocating for the autonomy of fellow Autistic people. And for a while I was kind of holding things together, but now my whole life I've built for a decade is all falling to pieces around me.
I'm losing my house of three years because my disability prevented me from maintaining the property to the landlord's liking. I'm losing my good union job of eight years because my deteriorating mental and physical health can't even handle part time hours anymore in that environment, and management will no longer accommodate my many absences. My marriage to a partner of nine years has just ended as well. There's nothing remaining of my old life and I'm completely lost.
I have places I can go if I can only find the means to survive for a few more months. Will you help me do that and maybe have something to start a whole new life with? I hate to ask for anything, I really don't know where else to turn. I've never been so hopeless in my life, and don't really know what to even say.
Anything helps.
