UPDATE RE: MY ESCAPE FROM VIOLENT ABLEST PHYSICAL AND MENTAL ABUSE

1/3

Good morning Mastodonians, emphasis on "good"! I have made my escape over the wall across enemy lines from abuse, and I am recovering in the resistance safe house. Translation for any "Neurotyps" out there: I've escaped my very abusive living situation and I'm finally in a place that feels like a home… like my home.

I'm waiting for someone to pinch me and wake me up because never in a thousand therapeutic escapist daydreams could I have imagined the wonderful things that have happened to me in many areas of my life in the past few weeks. I'm home in a healthy, happy, healing, nurturing, creative, neurodivergent place with a wonderfully accommodating person of like mind and spirit.

Believe it or not considering everywhere I've been, I now live in an area that I've never been before. I'm surrounded by nature's beauty outside my home, and beauty, peace, love, and sanctuary inside.

There are so many opportunities for me here, and I'm extremely excited to have not only a new creative partner, but a partner in OutOfExile_IDR efforts with the same fiery passion as I.

Among many other creative endeavors, we are also collaborating on music. This stellar individual has helped me to remember that despite having a limb difference disability (one functioning hand), I am still a highly skilled musician with decades of experience I thought I lost after my accident(s). As a result of the inspiration that comes from combining with this person, I'm teaching myself to play guitar again, left-handed.

And best of all, this person has a punctuation fetish. You've read my stuff, right? They keep my creative meanderings in check. What a perfect yin to my yang.

I'm extremely thankful for everyone who has contributed to my mutual aid request, helping me escape abuse and arrive at my new sanctuary. I couldn't have left without you. I still need support, however. I've lost 20 pounds I couldn't afford to lose, so among other things I need to eat for complete restoration. I also need medicine, clothes, and other necessities to get my life back on track.

One specific person gave a lion's share of their time and money to help me escape. This individual believes wholeheartedly in mutual aid and helped me, trusting the community to pitch in with more support. They witnessed the abuse happen in real time when we spoke, and saw my situation was dire. I am forever thankful, not only for their help getting me out, but for their moral support, their belief in me, and most importantly, their friendship. I don't want to think about what could have happened if this person didn't come to my rescue.

Please help me pay them back and practice reciprocity.
