Hi I’m Anna and I need #help escaping an #abusive environment. Government services aren’t sufficient and neither is my meagre income. I‘m severely #Disabled by #ChronicIllness which makes it even harder. I can’t do it alone.
Any help appreciated.

Hey Aidan,
Thank you! 🙏 I was trying to make my needs more clear but brevity is not my friend. Having cognitive disabilities makes it so difficult to write now. It’s hard to itemise costs when I have so much going on at once & it’s hard to know what will cost, how much, and when. It’s an ongoing operation.
Sorry to hear about your situation. I really hope you get the help you need too.

I agree; I think it might be as less folks have been as active with holidays. I'm gonna do the thread again near end of January. Part of the issue is that the tips and tricks I've been given work well on twitter, but not so much on Mastodon. So I feel like I'm muddling through new territory with the mutual aid asks here.
But persistence and experimentation should hopefully help us find a way that works?
I got too ill in January and couldn't set up anything to be honest. It's been a rollar coaster ride of pain and flareups of late. So I talked with the other mods and the admin, and we think we're gonna set this up as a pinned threads to retoot, and link each to the disabled.social blog and promote it that way. @PanickedFoodie is helping with the project too.
Apologies for this. I didn't expect to get so ill again.
@Aaidanbird @PanickedFoodie No need to apologise. I didn’t expect to get so sick either. It’s been a tough while for me too and I’m reaching out to set things up in case things don’t turn out so well. It depends on a lot of factors and my body can drop at any time, especially with the heat we’re having and lack of medical support. I hope you’re feeling better.
I’ll have to figure out what the blog is when I’ve more sleep.

Anna
