trans person in need

I'm trying to be able to see my boyfriend this summer as well as pay for my medication and schooling but im really low on money.

I have a kofi up where i do commissions and sell bracelets i make and i would really appreciate any help at all. gas is really expensive as well as my medication and the job i have right now has no work for me so ive got no way of getting any income right now. any plan i had to move out previously have been halted for who knows how long and its looking like i'll be stuck living in a toxic place for a while.

Id love even just to have this post reblogged, people sharing tips with me or really any help i can get with my situation whatsoever, things are only looking worse as time goes on so seriously anything could help right now.

the stress of things is starting to make me sick and i ont know what to do other than ask people for help which on its own i struggle with doing.

if there are any questions you have at all id be glad to answer them and help clear up any confusion or anything.

thank you so much for taking the time to read this!

i hope to be able to see my boyfriend by mid june if possible and pay for my medication by the end of the month.

everything else i'll have to try and deal with when it comes to it.

I don’t get on here much anymore but worth a tryyyy

I just escaped my bigot hometown, and am being housed by a friend while I look for a job in a large city. Money to eat something other than toast would be so nice lol pls donate I’m starving (I have a job potentially lined up) the friend also has little food. Literally a box of beans and a box of pancake mix and a loaf of bread.

My cashapp is $TyeThurstin, if u donate ily bc you provided a meal 🔥🙏

I absolutely hate asking for help. Especially from online friends/people as I feel like I'm burdening people. I get food stamps on the 10th but some money on the first. I just need enough until then

Cashapp is $Lunamoonscooty20

Today my therapist introduced me to a concept surrounding disability that she called "hLep".

Which is when you - in this case, you are a disabled person - ask someone for help ("I can't drink almond milk so can you get me some whole milk?", or "Please call Donna and ask her to pick up the car for me."), and they say yes, and then they do something that is not what you asked for but is what they think you should have asked for ("I know you said you wanted whole, but I got you skim milk because it's better for you!", "I didn't want to ruin Donna's day by asking her that, so I spent your money on an expensive towing service!") And then if you get annoyed at them for ignoring what you actually asked for - and often it has already happened repeatedly - they get angry because they "were just helping you! You should be grateful!!"

And my therapist pointed out that this is not "help", it's "hLep".

Sure, it looks like help; it kind of sounds like help too; and if it was adjusted just a little bit, it could be help. But it's not help. It's hLep.

At its best, it is patronizing and makes a person feel unvalued and un-listened-to. Always, it reinforces the false idea that disabled people can't be trusted with our own care. And at its worst, it results in disabled people losing our freedom and control over our lives, and also being unable to actually access what we need to survive.

So please, when a disabled person asks you for help on something, don't be a hLeper, be a helper! In other words: they know better than you what they need, and the best way you can honor the trust they've put in you is to believe that!

Also, I want to be very clear that the "getting angry at a disabled person's attempts to point out harmful behavior" part of this makes the whole thing WAY worse. Like it'd be one thing if my roommate bought me some passive-aggressive skim milk, but then they heard what I had to say, and they apologized and did better in the future - our relationship could bounce back from that. But it is very much another thing to have a crying shouting match with someone who is furious at you for saying something they did was ableist. Like, Christ, Jessica, remind me to never ask for your support ever again! You make me feel like if I asked you to call 911, you'd order a pizza because you know I'll feel better once I eat something!!

Edit: crediting my therapist by name with her permission - this term was coined by Nahime Aguirre Mtanous!

Edit again: I made an optional follow-up to this post after seeing the responses. Might help somebody. CW for me frankly talking about how dangerous hLep really is.

#hlep #original #mental health #my sympathies and empathies to anyone who has to rely on this kind of hlep to get what they need.#the people in my life who most need to see this post are my family but even if they did I sincerely doubt they would internalize it #i've tried to break thru to them so many times it makes my head hurt. so i am focusing on boundaries and on finding other forms of support #and this thing i learned today helps me validate those boundaries. the example with the milk was from my therapist.#the example with the towing company was a real thing that happened with my parents a few months ago while I was age 28. 28!#a full adult age! it is so infantilizing as a disabled adult to seek assistance and support from ableist parents.#they were real mad i was mad tho. and the spoons i spent trying to explain it were only the latest in a long line of #huge family-related spoon expenditures. distance and the ability to enforce boundaries helps. haven't talked to sisters for literally the #longest period of my whole life. people really believe that if they love you and try to help you they can do no wrong.#and those people are NOT great allies to the chronically sick folks in their lives.#you can adore someone and still fuck up and hurt them so bad. will your pride refuse to accept what you've done and lash out instead?#or will you have courage and be kind? will you learn and grow? all of us have prejudices and practices we are not yet aware of.#no one is pure. but will you be kind? will you be a good friend? will you grow? i hope i grow. i hope i always make the choice to grow.#i hope with every year i age i get better and better at making people feel the opposite of how my family's ableism has made me feel #i will see them seen and hear them heard and smile at their smiles. make them feel smart and held and strong.#just like i do now but even better! i am always learning better ways to be kind so i don't see why i would stop

"Disabled people should be allowed to be as independent as we can be" and "disabled people should not be pressured to be hyper-independent in order to not wind up in nursing homes against our will" are two thoughts that can, and should, exist at the same time.

#physically disabled #cripplepunk #disability #original post #the number of people who assume I'm from an assisted living facility stuns me #I can do most things on my own #as far as I know I don't fall under 'high support' needs #yet I've had people ask about my caretaker and I'm like 'my what'#I have someone drive me and need help shopping #but that's about all

things are bad

i just got done with highschool but still have a summer course to finish.

my adoptive brother's sister is likely moving in with us but at the moment we have hardly any space for her, if i moved out she could have my room so she had a safe space so she could finish high school, but i have nowhere to go and we're the only safe space she has at the moment.

ive technically lost my job and im going to be looking for another one where i can, but its not very likely ill get one for a while.

my parents are pressuring me to take another few years of school, but i cant even pay for it at the moment let alone do i have enough for my medication.

its looking like i wont get the trip to go out and see my boyfriend this month or anytime soon which breaks my heart because i really wanted to take a break from everything to meet up with him.

my condition is getting pretty bad with my pain, dissociation and dizzy episodes etc leading to me getting myself a walking stick so i have support to keep myself on my feet during the day. but thats caused issues in my daily life making it hard for me to get anything done let alone work at all.

im saving up what i can to pay for my meds when i run out but im so low on anything at the moment that ive resorted to selling my belongings in a garage sale.

the stress of things is making me sick and im going to keep doing what i can to rest up and take care of myself but i would really appreciate any help i can get what so ever to better my situation whether its donation, tips or just general advice to make day-to-day tasks easier to complete.

if you have any questions or ideas or anything at all please feel free to send me a message to start a conversation hell i'll even take some nice off-topic convo about interests as a distraction for a bit.

at the very least thank you for reading this and listening to me get this off my chest.

seriously any support would mean the world to me right now.
