Help Phoenix survive

Edit: I know I haven't been posting much but its because I'm busy surviving.  I've been homeless again for three months now and have thankfully managed to stay off the street.  However I still need money to pay for transit and food as I navigate my way through the disability application.  My initial claim was unfortunately denied so I have to wait for an appeal that will take several months at least.  Thank you and many blessings for continued support <3

Heartbreaking to have to post yet another one of these.  But obviously life as a transgender woman is a cycle of poverty and abandonment and being either homeless or barely removed from homelessness.

When I started my transition four and a half years ago I ended up homeless bc my adoptive family wanted a son, which clearly I am not.  My adoptive mom was  very abusive and ended up cyber stalking me to shut me out of support networks.  I have been diagnosed with borderline personality disorder as a result of her abuse. 

I'm currently applying for disability and after being institutionalized twice for my mental health I managed to find a lawyer willing to take my case.  This was all in November, which is also my birthday month and an extremely hard time for me with the trauma I have from losing my adoptive family.  And now am I spending December packing to be homeless again.  But!  Things are looking more hopeful than they have in a long time.  I have a lawyer and I'm building the papertrail to prove my disability to a genocidal state and several people have reached out with offers of long-term housing so I won't be hustling for a place to stay for a night or a week like I was last time.  After I move out I'll need to stay at a homeless shelter for a while to expedite my disability case.   As I said I have direct trauma being homeless and being abused by shelters, not to mention that I will likely be housed with men and potentially assaulted or worse there.  But its the only plan I have.

Pray for me.
