Help Me Escape Toxic Home and Heal

Donation protected
I am raising funds to help me move out of my house due to trauma and a difficult family relationship. Recently, I was raped and was not believed by those closest to me. Instead, I have faced ongoing torment and isolation, and the police are unable to help because I am now 18. I am autistic, and this has made it even harder to find a job and navigate these challenges. This has left me feeling lost and struggling to find a way forward, especially as I try to find work in a challenging environment.

The support from this fundraiser will help me escape a toxic household and give me the chance to refresh my mind. I hope that with a safe space, I can regain my mental stability and start to rebuild my life, both emotionally and financially. Your help will make a real difference in giving me the opportunity to heal and move forward.

Every cent is appreciated, and I am deeply grateful for any support. I hate to seem like I'm begging, but as soon as I graduated high school, my life flipped upside down. I just want it to stop feeling like a horror movie. Thank you for reading my story and considering helping me.
