Hey everyone, So a year ago I met my soul mate in college and my entire life crashed down around me. My ex boyfriend performed a gas lighting stunt ( personal sabatoge) with my family and friend circles after I expressed not having interest of getting back together with him. He continued his abusive behavior by the eating me with his AR-15. Which the authorities deem freedom of speech. While this was happening I left college due to several incidents of harassment from people I didn't know and went to travel in my little blue Volvo with my now hubby. While my entire family and friend support got pulled from under me my car got towed while I was camping in Yosemite. I didn't have enough money to get it out so I walked with my hubby across California back to the coast. I have been on the streets ever since then with no support from my family or friends ( I reached out and they all bullied me on Facebook and laughed).
I am now 6 mo preggo and couldn't be happier. Life has been really hard and I have just been praying for a miracle. My family said I can come home if I give away the baby and get my tubes tied (I'm 22). Both me and my hubby are good people who don't do drugs and we are getting overlooked and slipping through the cracks of social services. I am reaching out to the subeta community because it's the only social circle my ex didn't sabatoge for help. I have started a go fund me and do not know if anyone would be open to sharing it amongst their friends family or church communities. I have none to turn to. I don't know what to do. All I can do is keep my stress down and attempt not to have a miscarriage. Living on the streets is tough and the shelters are worse. Any advice and prayers are appreciated. https://www.gofundme.com/travelers-with-unexpected-baby

Hi . I am sorry things are looking rough for you right now.
It looks to me like your social circle cannot support you, from the looks of it. I also feel like you are in a good mental place righ now but you need concrete to set your feet on and to prepare for this baby. Have you seen a physican since being told you're expecting? I am not very familiar with the US medical shenanigan, but I'm pretty sure some planned parenthood places will definitely give good advices and may be able to able.
I am wondering why you're saying 'we are getting overlooked and slipping through the cracks of social services'? Is it something you're afraid of? Social services aren't always about taking children out, especially since you're fairly young. You do not need to say 'hello I'm homeless'. You can just ask question. Being homeless is not written accross your face. If you cannot get help from your friends, find help elsewhere by using social services provided by your city. It's rough but you're doing this for yourself and for the future of your child.
Is it possible for any of you to find work? Fill for wellfare? That's something to consider as well. I also hate to do this, but Gofundme pages aren't allowed on site and you may receive a warning for doing so. By editing your post you may save yourself from a warning.
I wish you the best of luck.
