I know that I don’t have much followers since I’m more of a lurker than a sharer, but I feel as if this is my last hope and the last place I can turn to for help.
I’m gay, and I have been for a very long time. Sadly, I do not live in a place where homosexuality is acceptable, best case scenario if you are outed as gay is that you get prison time. So I grew up hiding my identity as carefully as I can, but even that wasn’t enough and my parents found out when I was outed by a once friend’s parents. I was beaten, locked in a room and starved for a week in hopes that this will drive the deviancy out of my body. Anybody who is familiar with even a shred of psychology would tell you that it doesn’t work like that.
I managed to pack a few bags and got out of the house with the help of my younger sister, and I am now staying with my best friend who lives in a small rented apartment. I have been staying with her for a week now, and I cannot keep being a burden. Rent is due next week, and I have to pay my share. She already pays for the groceries, and I cant keep on asking more from her. I won’t stop studying full time until next month, which is when I will start a part-time job at a call center. But until then, all I have is the equivalent of 20$, a phone and the clothes I packed. The small bank account I had that I used to put my summer jobs’ money in has been closed by my parents.
I have no one else to turn to without having to tell them of the cause of me being in this situation, which will only worsen things. If this does not work out, I will have to go back to living with my parents and living through their attempts to cure me of my so called illness.
Rent is 1400dh, and my share of it is 550dh which is the equivalent of 50$, give or take a some. If any of you can spare a couple of dollars, I would be forever grateful, if not, a signal boost or a reblog would be appreciated all the same. If you want to donate but feel hesitant about this being fake, you can contact me for proof, I just can’t post it here publicly and risk exposing myself further.
Here is my paypal if anyone feels like donating:
