Good evening everybody happy Halloween (going to add some images might trigger some people so just FYI located at bottom of my story.) My name is Nico I am 21 year old female. I told myself I would never do something like this and I didn’t want to but I don’t have very many options left .. A few days ago I received a 30 day pay or quit for my apartment. My power has been off for almost 2 months now… I just want to share/rant a few things before I go on and no I’m not looking for sympathy or a hand out. I’m just in a really bad position and need some help desperately. When I was 14 I was kicked out of my mothers home for good (I’ve been couch surfing since 12-13 so I was homeless till I turned 18. (4 years) those 4 years I endured the worst experiences of my life. from sleeping outside under bushes to random strangers homes. I got into a really bad relationship when I was 16-17 with a man who was 27-28 I wasn’t able to escape him till I turned 18. I am a domestic violence abuse survivor. A gun violence survivor and much more I won’t add here. Past few years I’ve been struggling with my mental health & physical health. I wish I had parents I could call for help or a warm hug .. but that is just out of the question for me. I haven’t had contact with family since a small girl. And it hurts everyday.. I’ve been trying to get myself a job for months my car is in absolute terrible condition and won’t make it but a couple miles. So my options are very limited. I was barely scrapping up rent. I thought by now I would have a nice reliable job but I guess not, I’ve had almost 20 applications put in the last week 5 interviews. I’ve had some men try to offer my fake help just to try to get in my pants the offers were never real. I had a man say he had a job for me gave me location time & everything seemed a little unprofessional so I looked his number up over 33 terrible reports some of even saying he was/is a rxpist(used mr.number) .. I really want to make where I am my forever home because I’ve never had one. Just a few weeks ago I finally got my first ever bed (was free) I was sleeping on a air mattress for years. I’m scared of being homeless again as a young woman it puts us in a very vulnerable dangerous position. I’m behind about two months on rent. I would use my GoFundMe money for rent my power bill and maybe getting my car fixed or other bills I have too many to count. I would also use to get medical help and help with my vision I was born with partial blindness in my right eye haven’t got it checked out since a baby. I would be so grateful to receive help with these things as I never have before. if you stayed this long to read part of my story thank you have a great rest of your day/
