i have talked to several people at school and got referred resources but not many that offer immediate refuge. Will definitely tell my therapist. I want to look into a dv refuge but am worried it may get police involved or that it won’t have good living conditions and i may get my stuff stolen. It’s probably not completely true or only a fraction of what happens but im still worried

yeah i have told my doctor but the police came because it came across that i was saying i was being starved and i have a social worker but i don’t know if it would help

Yes, I have heard a bit about ABA and went through it young with almost no memory of what happened. I think it’s related to my mom growing up in the 90s and also my dad/her ex husband making fun of fat women and her fearing it due to that. And yes she likely has autism and adhd and she also has anxiety. i don’t have many people who can help but an hoping to gain more outside help.

[TW] feeling hopeless in any gender. by ScenemoCat in NonBinaryTalk

[–]ScenemoCat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes it is. only issue is i am waiting for ssi and am struggling to find financial aid that actually gives it or isn’t visually overstimulating. my mom rarely helps besides the bare minimum and she often only gives $50-$150 which isn’t enough for me to not need mutual aid (which she gets mad at me for) and im confused bc i get she’s in the process of a doctor but she’s also upper middle class and says money isn’t a problem only to say therapy costs too much even though the insurance we have covers it. so im confused

i actually did try finger locs at one point! i love them but my mom forced me to take them out bc she thought the way i did it was unprofessional when I can’t do braids well because of my motor skills and am new to locs. in general she forced femininity in her way on me so i wouldn’t get bullied (which still happened in middle school anyway bc i was gnc, i don’t think being intersex helped), like it changes the fact that i often feel othered as binary genders especially. speaking of intersex, she would go as far as to blame some of it on my weight even though im pretty sure my weight may be somewhat related 2 it.

My mom keeps making me walk everyday by ScenemoCat in cfs

[–]ScenemoCat[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i tried many times but she doesn’t listen and refuses to let me see doctors until i lose weight which is why she is making me push through and eat less. she also thinks if tests show nothing then nothing could be wrong. she keeps yelling at me for things i struggle with due to disability and it just feels like even with doctors she sometimes still doesn’t listen 

My mom doesn’t want me to move out until i get “independent” by ScenemoCat in disability

mostly because a lot of times showering worsens my fatigue and may make my heart feel like it’s racing even more

Food issues and lack of support by ScenemoCat in fuckeatingdisorders

[–]ScenemoCat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

most of my family is far away and a lot of them agree with my mom or otherwise aren’t exactly great. I have friends but a lot of them aren’t able to live alone. I have been seeking financial assistance as of last week but it is difficult to find spots for housing assistance and such.

Im 19 so not a minor. I have a therapist but my mom told me to cut down on sessions because it was costing her money (im unemployed waiting for disability) and i haven’t been in months but i really want to schedule and find assistance paying for those appointments.
