Raven<p>Context: I got these fortune cookie fortunes on the day I almost gave up and gave in. I view this as a divine command from Tengri that I must seek more assistance to get out of the USA. Edit since I started writing this post, the US government is now holding passports sent in for gender change requests, and some speculate they may start confiscating passports with gender changes like mine.</p><p>More Context: I have been applying to jobs for months trying to get into the Germany with a work visa but have failed to secure employment because my resume, work history, and education do not outweigh my lack of German language ability or EU residency. I can't even get to the interview stage.</p><p>Even More Context: I have listed my mental health challenges that must be overcome with any escape from the USA, this is for any who are reading and wondering if they can help can see so that any suggestions are weighed against my limitations.</p><p>About Me Mental Health 1: I have severe ADHD and autism (bad at social cues, loud noises, textures).</p><p>About Me Mental Health 2: My severe ADHD makes it impossible for me to get a full night sleep if I fall asleep if I fall asleep too early, makes it difficult to focus, and makes focusing take more effort. I need any instructions or assistance to be detailed, step by step, and clear. It has also made language learning very difficult for me. I also do extremely poorly with standardized testing, like I used to read at a college level in middle school and could barely score a passing grade on the yearly standardized reading tests.</p><p>About Me Mental Health 3: Here is a lightning round for the rest. With regard to my severe chronic PTSD makes loud noises like yelling worse and don't touch my face with the palm of your hand. Depression hits me hard I have been suicidal since I was 8 years old and have survived a lot of attempts, plans, and endless ideation. Seasonal Affective Disorder sometimes means that I get double depression in winter or summer though until this winter it hadn't acted up in 8 years or so. </p><p>About Me Mental Health 4 Conclusion:<br>In America I have found every job I have had on my own historically and lived on my own for 2 and a half years. This was working but I cannot find work on my own in the EU (I have been trying for Germany mostly). But this is not working in the USA anymore. Due to this and the politics of the world and isolation I feel in America my mental health has come to the lowest point in my entire life recently. I won't last much longer in the USA. </p><p>Current Status: IT Support work here in the USA is gone and every other job I get I have been fired from since or been rejected when applying. I have some savings but would be able to sell my car and have quite a bit more once a plan was formulated and I am closer to leaving the USA. But I cant seem to get work in the USA so I am racing 3 clocks. My mental health is melting away, I don't know how long my friends can keep adding days and hours to my mental health clock to keep it from hitting 0. My economic clock is running down, I cant survive without income forever, the only reason it isn't 0 is because I am super frugal and money conscious. Finally as you can see if you are paying attention to US politics, my existence will soon become illegal as a transgender woman and a lesbian. I need to escape and I need a new lease on life.</p><p>What I Need: A reliable and trustworthy social support network, reliable and trustworthy potential roommates, job referrals for work I can do and that wont fire me for my disability, hope, and a plan.</p><p>If you want to help private message me or boost this post.
