I go by miso i have been creating for 2 years with my silly content but today I really need your help
august 2023 i was evicted by my sister leaving me and my mom completely homeless i have been housing insecure for most of my life i do not remember the last time i had a home or haven’t been bouncing around on someone’s couch. After the eviction we were forced to sleep in the car and as a person with severe back pain (and i minor curve in there back) this caused my pain to be 10x worse. I could no longer work for long periods of time or stand and still till this day i cannot function like a 20 year old should. My mother and i were lucky enough to get into a program called inside safe which we thought would help us get housing but instead they sent us to a dangerous neighborhood where the first night someone died in their room and the first week their was a fire in the building that i still have ptsd from. Living in that place has given me permanent damage and fear in my everyday life from when someone tried to break into our room in the middle of the night, the constant breaking of windows to my moms car getting hit on multiple occasions just for the person who is in the wrong to threaten her life. We lived next to registered sex offenders and i would stay in the room for weeks at a time because it was too dangerous to go outside (as a femme presenting person) this led to me not being able to have a job because i do not have transportation and i do not have a safe environment to take public transportation. The inside safe program was no help to me and my mom with their lack of communication where we would get a new social worker every month but never any answers or actual help we begged and asked many times to be helped but they just couldn’t help us and evicted us from the program. I’m currently looking for a job which i have been doing for the passed 5 months with no luck even before we got evicted. I have friends houses i can sleep at and people who help here and there but it isn’t a long term solution. This is me begging for help in anyway. I don’t know what to do. I have been homeless for 10 years of my life MOST of my life i have lacked stability and crave it more than anything. I’m still looking for a job that’s accommodating of my audhd and physical pain but it seems like i have to push through and just suffer if i want to live. I just want stability. I just want a home badly. I want a normal life and to enjoy my youth and decorate a space and not be scared it’s going to disappear in a month or two. The people i thought i could rely on most turned out to be the most evil out of all of them. Making me believe i was safe making me believe I had stability just to take it away. I will never trust people the same but i will also never be as bitter.
