my landlord is illegally denying me my ESA
iām spencer, a 21 y/o college student. iām physically disabled and have a fun variety of mental health problems, leading to my psychiatrist agreeing that i would benefit from an ESA.Ā yes, the creature in the picture is my ESA, PB (she's homophobic but i love her anyways).
my landlord has no grounds to refuse my ESA, but i canāt afford a lawyer and multiple HUD complaints havenāt done anything. iām trying to raise part of the pet deposit, which is $1000 (my ESA is not a pet).
the main reasons i need an ESA are my anxiety and PTSD; primarily, it helps to not be alone. PB is also great at distracting me and very cuddly. literally just having her presence helps me, and it's good to have a reason i have to get up.
my roommate also has an ESA, so weāre in the same boat with him. additionally, his dog is in danger. my roommateās parents are garbage and give him access to grapes, chocolate, and overfeed him. he should be 7-8 pounds, and heās now close to 11 pounds. scar has learned jayās signals for when he needs support, so the two of them are very close. additionally, scar was with jay during a traumatic event that jay is developing PTSD symptoms from. it would help jay a lot to have scar back.
my gofundme link has pictures of the pet deposit requirements, my ESA letters, and both of our ESAs. it provides more information on the situation, some of which isnāt included here. some things here arenāt on the gofundme, which is for jayās comfort.Ā
ideally, we need $2000. however, weāve set a goal of $1000. please dm me or send an ask with any questions!
