Help Krissy Escape Her Transphobic Parents

My name is Krissy, and I'm a young transwoman living in an increasingly hostile situation.

Over the last ten years, I've struggled heavily with an unsupportive and often hostile living situation, lack of independence and control over my own life, and mental health challenges. I found solace online, finding a home among the transformation community, who gave me a family when my own refused to accept me for who I truly am. Unfortunately, due to my own decision making and inexperience, I incurred a significant amount of debt through college and into the Covid-19 Pandemic. I was never able to properly launch my life away from my abusive mother, and as the American political situation continues to degrade, the hostility at home has only grown worse.

Despite working a full time job, along with overtime, I have been unable to properly save enough money to make a clean break and go no-contact with my family. Over the last two years, I have made consistent efforts to change that, working to reduce my debt alongside beginning my gender transition. During that time, I managed to significantly improve my mental health, undergo significant physical changes, and improve my financial situation. Unfortunately that has not been enough, and I am now running out of time to finally move out and begin my life properly. Due to increasingly severe circumstances, I've made the decision to leave by the end of August, by any means necessary. In order to do that I must clear out all of my debts, and have enough savings to secure a new home away from my family.

With the situation as severe as it is, I've decided to open up this GoFundMe. I fully intend to move out on my own, no matter what it takes. However, donations this can happen much, much sooner and successfully. The TF community has given me many things throughout my life. Support, friendship, understanding that I wasn't alone, and the push I needed to discover who I truly was. Now, with my familial support network having failed me, I hope that maybe it can help me again to move forwards and start the life I've always dreamed of.
