Hello, I am a girl in her late teens living with her abusive mother. She beats me, breaks down my self-esteem, and regularly threatens me and lies about me to my family to isolate them from me. She has many friends, most of my relatives don't believe me and the rest cant take me in.

I feel lost. I'm so depressed and afraid that one day, she will kill me. She's legally in possession of a firearm. I applied for over 40 different jobs, online and IRL, and despite my 8 subjects, i wasn't hired. I am unable to leave without money, and I cannot live like this. Please, if you can, donate. a dollar or two is one step towards freedom for me. Towards hope, and hopefully, being able to feel love since my father died in 2007, leaving me with an abusive woman.

The money will help me find a place to live while attending university. While there is no end to the donation date, I'd love to have at least half of the amount by Christmas.

I am anonymous due to fears of my abuser finding this. I don't want to post face pics
