Help Me Move Out Of An Abusive Household

Donation protected
Hi, I’m Emerson. I’m 18 years old and I’m a transgender male. I have been in a 2+ year relationship with the love of my life. My partner has just been put in a situation where they were kicked out and had to move hours away from me, unable to see me often at all because their truck isn’t able to make it down. I’m still living at home. But my goal is to move out before June. I came about about being transgender to my father at age 13. He is a radical Jehovah’s Witness and has been trying to kick me out ever since. I’ve been basically alone in my life family wise since then. He’s cut all ties I have with any of my extended family. He started harassing me when I came home, started keeping me locked up in my room, kept me from going out with friends, and it all just got worse from there. He’s basically isolated me from the world slowly but surely. I’ve had to hide my relationship from him for over two years because he’s a very physically violent man and I’m scared of being hurt. I cannot live in such a household any longer. I cannot sit here and let him hide me and lay his hands on me and be verbally abusive towards me for being myself. I need to move out with my partner for life to be better for us both but I have nowhere near enough money to do so. I’m in need of a down payment on an apartment at least, maybe some to use towards the new car funds so my partner can travel down to visit so I’m not stuck here alone. So I’m asking for the help of you guys. Any little bit helps, but I need out of this household officially. It’s been too many years of suffering for me and for my partner. Thank you all for reading. Bless you all<3
