Hello, my name is Ammy. I'm 20 years old, a student, and the creator of an independent plushie catalog site, plushiequest.com. I am asking for your help because I'm facing a crisis I can no longer handle alone. I also struggle with anxiety issues, I feel so scared to reach out for help.
For years, I've struggled with severe depression and the trauma of being bullied and isolated. As a young transgender woman, I was rejected and thrown out, leaving me with no friends or anyone for support, and I struggled alone for a long time. Some time ago, I was also diagnosed with keratoconus, a degenerative eye condition that has left me with medical expenses that I had a very difficult time paying. This led me to losing all my savings and having no safety cushion.
I've been fighting so hard to build a life for myself. I poured my hope into creating plushiequest.com to share my passion and hopefully make enough income to survive. However, I constantly struggle to maintain housing. My disabilities, including chronic migraines and being autistic, make it incredibly difficult to find and keep a stable job that can accommodate my needs.
Right now, my most urgent need is to find housing that is safe, secure, and accommodating for my disabilities. The upfront costs of a security deposit and first month's rent are a major barrier, and I am also struggling to afford basic necessities like clothing.
Your support would be a true lifeline. It would help me pay for my medical costs and give me the emergency funds to secure housing and buy essential clothing. More than anything, it would give me a sliver of hope that I can get through this and one day get back to building my dreams.
I am trying to raise $1000 to cover these urgent costs:
$900: to secure a safe place to live (first/last month's rent or a security deposit).
$100: For basic clothing and other essential necessities.
Thank you for hearing my story. Every share and every dollar is a message that I am not invisible and that my fight matters.
With hope,
Ammy
