Please help me afford Surgery so I can live a normal life
Donation protected
Hiya, I'm Giselle. I'm trying to collect some money to get my gender affirming surgery so I can finally live a normal life like everyone else.
I grew up in Gaza, Palestine, as my father is from there. We then moved away from there due to the rising hostilities when I was younger than 10, to my mothers country, Russia. We didnt stay too long, as the situation there was not economically good either. So my parents moved us to Sweden in search of a better life.
I would be wrong to say that my blood family is outright hateful. But they are not particularly supportive either and are often dismissive/resistant to the idea of me being trans. That is more than I could have hoped for, for a family that is religious. I am still living under their roof, although I am not certain for how much longer.
Attempting to find a normal job has been very difficult for me, due to my face and race. Not only is passing an issue, but the heavy dysphoria associated with my face in particular causes me distress and constant depression. Work places do not take favorably to someone who refuses to take off their facial mask under any circumstance.
I have been sustaining myself on low-paying online jobs so far, but that has been difficult, as well as making it impossible to save up for any surgery. I am also heavily under the influence of my family due to it, making it difficult to speak up about anything and making it difficult to live as myself, as any wrong word could cause me to become homeless with too low of an income to support myself.
My dream ever since puberty has been to fix my face so it does not cause me issues any longer, live a normal life, work a normal job and finally be able to go outside without feeling paranoia and anxiety over what people think of my face.
Its such an issue that it has caused me to be a shut-in.
I already have a surgeon that is relatively cheap selected(Its about 15,000 USD if the Swedish currency is confusing), I have already saved up enough myself for the trip there and back, So that part is fine.
Anyway..before I ramble for too long..Anything you donate would be an amazing help, I need your help to be able to get the surgery for my face (Facial feminization surgery) and I am extremely, beyond words, thankful to anyone who donates anything.
