Hello everyone, I really don’t know how to start this off, as I never thought I’d be in this position.

But I really need help.

Many of you know me as “DivineArtsss” or Goddess, and some of you know me personally as Kylie (that’s my real name. Hey there).

I’m a 21-year-old artist born and raised in the Midwest. For the last 3-4 years of my life, I’ve been struggling financially, mentally, and even physically, as the stress I’ve gone through is affecting my physical health as well.

2025 was a struggle, to say the least. I’ve gone through food insecurity, house hopping, and homelessness. During the months of July - September, I was on and off again living in the car with my mother, as I was forced to leave a household that was toxic and draining me. As a result, I lost everything and was put into an even worse situation.

I lost/had to throw away many bags of clothing, plenty of hygiene products, and sentimental items that I’ve had for years, including pounds of expensive art supplies and sketchbooks that were destroyed and thrown out. This absolutely broke my heart and hindered my art progression, leaving me with only a couple of half-empty sketchbooks and cheap pens.

I did have two jobs (not consecutively). My first one I had to quit due to racism, bullying, and a dangerous stalker situation. The second one I had to quit about 3 months ago due to my mom’s car engine breaking down and me being too far to even commute/take the bus. At both jobs, I was only making $10-11 an hour and not making enough, especially for getting paid biweekly. So I still needed help desperately.

I even tried to open commissions to earn some sort of income, but that failed.

Right now, I am unemployed and looking for work while bouncing from house to house. The likelihood of me becoming homeless or going to a shelter is extremely high, as I’m struggling to pay for basic necessities like Airbnb expenses, hygiene products, washing clothes, and even my phone bill.

I don’t really have close friends or family members I can stay with, as everyone has their own issues from recovering from 2025. Many people that did “help” me didn’t want the best for me and caused an extremely unhealthy and toxic environment for me.

If any of you guys can help, it would be greatly appreciated. And even if you can’t help, spreading this around would help a lot too.

(Also, here is me with a baby gosling I saved last year, and some of my art. Because why not?)
