Help a homeless jewish trans man get back on his feet.
hey.
i’m swallowing my pride and making a fundraiser aimed at helping me survive long-term. i’m at the end of my rope. living on under £350 a month (the amount i am getting from ESA) is impossible. even if i applied for PIP right away, it’d be some time before i got it and it’d involve a medical check which is, as you can imagine, i’m not guaranteed to pass due to the state of the benefits system in the UK.
please help me. i’m desperate. i have no other recourse but to depend on the kindness of strangers to survive.
i’m profoundly disabled. most days, i can’t leave the house. about a third of the time, i’m bedbound due to pain and fatigue. sensory processing problems from schizoaffective disorder and ADHD mean i can’t do low-wage/low-skill work like transcription or data entry and the pain in my hands prevents me from being an effective typist anyway. cognitive problems from the schizoaffective disorder mean i cannot study right now and have no real hope of qualifying for a job that i could do even with chronic fatigue.
i’m desperate. i live under immense stress every day because i can barely afford to feed myself, never mind buy basic necessities (i don’t have a fucking toothbrush rn). i’ve already exhausted all the avenues along the lines of “asking friends for loans” and i am estranged from my family right now.
frankly, i’m scared for my life. please, help me get out of homelessness and get into a stable situation. please.
Not something I designed– a friend shared it on Facebook– but in an effort to spread counter propaganda I thought this would be helpful to share for folks in areas where breaking through the liberal bubble is especially needed
