My name is Alex.
I have been struggling for the past few years and was told to give GoFundMe a shot.
I have been homeless, couch surfing and just without a place of my own for over a year now since I was evicted. I have mental illness and am neurodivergent.
I am apparently a person that is easy manipulated by “well-intending” people who claim to have good intentions and my safety in mind. I get hired for jobs that I end up not getting paid for, conveniently after an argument or some random problem, and of course once a good job is done I end up with nothing but regret.
I’m an empath. But I guess that means these individuals I’ve encountered see me with a big flashing sign that says “take advantage of me”. I have been crashing at an alleged “friend” - my ex and now psychological tormentor. Uses his charm to manipulate everyone around him. Especially me - that person that loved him, and he knew all too well, and has constantly forced me to spend what little time money I can manage to earn to buy him what he selfishly wants or risk being locked out and him screwing the main door shut, thus keeping me out.
I have had my social circle completely destroyed by manipulative persons like this that use me for their gain and find a way to discard me without honoring their promises.
I’m desperate for help. I have a storage unit I can barely keep up with cost wise. My mail never makes it to me because this ex of mine constantly interferes with my receipt of my mail. I can’t even renew my drivers license because I can’t ensure I receive my new license because he intercepts. I feel like I’m trapped. I can’t win. It’s like I am living with the devil. He has covered all his basis and constantly uses the guise of “mental health” to conceal his cruel behavior toward me and psychological harm.
He has gotten violent and attacked me many times and I excused it for a while because I had feelings for him, but I’ve been a fool and no longer willl trust him. He has destroyed so many of my possessions and when I have asserted my discontent with this, he has gotten violent many times.
I don’t have family here. I feel like I can’t trust anyone. I’m in the street tonight after I let him use my snap card because he was being charming and he used my last 100 dollars. I can’t even get food now! wtf :-(
I am trying to get my life together but I can’t even have the calm of knowing where I will sleep at night.
I need help. I want a job. I want to have normality in my life again. I don’t want to feel unsafe and uneasy on a daily basis. I don’t want to lost my storage. That’s all Al have left after my eviction. My entire life keeps getting smaller and unbearable and before I can feel from each progressive tragedy, I am met with another traumatic event - thus rendering me paralyzed.
Money, advice, resources, guidance - humanity in any way would be a godsend…
please someone help…
