Help Benji get out of an toxic household

UPDATE: My family and I are going to family therapy together and we are trying to work things out. However I am still trying to save up moving funds as I find living here very stressful. I thrive more when my parents are not home and I truly believe living elsewhere would greatly benefit my mental health, lifestyles, and my art/small business.

Hello, my name is Ben. I am a 24 year old transman living in a toxic household with my parents. I am looking to move out when I can. The environment here is getting worse.

My mom is my main stressor in life right now. I am currently in DBT therapy and working on my own mental health but my physical safety at home, as well as mental health, is at stake. I do not believe I will able to heal from the family trauma as long as I am in my childhood house. I need to leave.

My only source of income right now is my digital art/freelancing which is getting difficult to focus on in this environment. I currently live near a town center where there are possible places to apply to for jobs and I also live near a Metro station that can give me transportation elsewhere should I need it. I am going to focus up on saving up for moving out and finding a jobs (even if temporary) to help with this goal.

Any and all donations are greatly appreciated to this fundraiser and I appreciate every single supporter, followers on social media, friends, etc. If you cannot donate, just sharing the link to this would be so helpful! I am grateful for all you. Please do not donate if your own funds are low and if you are unable to <3 I won't mind, I'm just grateful for every donation so far and for the help/support I've got online.

Thank you.

Love,

Ben
