Help Reclaim Safety and Stability for a Trans Woman
Donation protected
I'm a 26-year-old trans woman from Portland, Oregon. One year ago, I met my abuser, and shortly after, I invited him to live in my home, as he was previously homeless. This action led to 10 months of emotional abuse, gaslighting, and flagrantly emotional neglect.
Our relationship ended months ago, and in the time since, I was threatened and made to feel my safety was at risk if I sought out new relationships. I did regardless and kept it in secret, to my dismay and utter shame. Upon my abuser's discovery of my relationship, he destroyed my apartment and became physically aggressive with me. I immediately fled the situation.
In the time since, my abuser has attempted to slander my name on social media platforms, has called me from multiple phone numbers, and sent a barrage of texts ranging from threats to go to my workplace, to begging for forgiveness and closure.
I have done the legal work to protect myself and reclaim my home, and in the time since, I've lost hours at my job, and now have to make up for the finances my abuser threatened to withhold from me time and time again. I am at a serious risk of losing my home, and everything I've worked incredibly hard for over a 4-year timespan that I've lived in this apartment.
I don't see it realistically feasible that I'll raise the $3,000 goal of this GoFundMe, but I need help.
