I’ve never posted anything like this before for myself but I’m out of options. My name is Alyssa. I’m an autistic genderqueer Black lesbian and I live with my partner who is an autistic nonbinary lesbian. We are also both disabled and severely mentally ill.
We’ve been struggling so much lately. My hours were cut at work because of COVID and because my employers found out I was gay. My partner is both applying for disability and seeking employment. Since we live in a conservative rural Southern town, we face a lot of discrimination which has massively impacted our financial state.
And it’s gotten progressively worse. I’m struggling to afford basic things like my rent, car note, medications, food, and warm clothes for the winter. I don’t enjoy this. I can’t describe how humiliating it is to have to beg for help like this. But we have no other options right now.
Even if you can’t donate, please reblog… Thank you all so much.
