My support needs are not being met living with my parents. I’m not homeless anymore and they took me back. But they still treat me as non disabled for the most part, which just sets me up to fail. They expect me to be fully speaking and I just can’t measure up.

homeless trans person needs help booking a hotel so they can work and sleep at night
hello, I'm equinox, or Johnny. i am a disabled trans lesbian. i am schizophrenic, have PTSD & anxiety, arthritis & hEDS. i am recovering from COVID & having two necessary tooth extraction. im currently homeless, i was invited to couch surf with two roommates in a 1 bedroom house. they have been inviting guests over multiple days a week to sleep in the living room which is where i sleep and work, they have stolen items from me and admitted to it, they beg me for money when they know I'm broke, they force me to do things and guilt trip me when i don't, bthey smoke cigarettes indoors & have an excessive amount of cats that they do not clean up after. i am allergic to cats. the heater, toilet, stove and shower are broken, i haven't showered in weeks.
i have been invited to couch surf with another friend but their house is similar situation where there are multiple guests daily and there is nowhere for me to work, sleep or have privacy. I am torn between two homes that I don't live in.
i broke down. i have been crying for a few hours now, i am having a mental break down because i have nowhere to safely rest my head at night and can't have a moment of privacy to myself, let alone work or enjoy myself for a moment of leisure.
i need to book a hotel at my case workers suggestion just to have a safe place to sleep and work uninterrupted. i have basically no other options. it's a lot to ask for but it's my only option. thank you for considering me, anything will help right now while I'm going through so much.

Thank you for letting AAC users have one thing! I really appreciate it! / directed at schar-aac
I am not an aac user but I am neurodivergent. I am just very curious but would the aac emojis you make be used for discord emojis?
They may be used as Discord emoji when a link is made available to the original image, so people can find the image to use if they want or need to - however, I will not draw images purely for use as discord emoji. I will draw images for use in AAC. If people also wish to use these images as Discord emoji, they may.

i love u aac users that get overwhelmed by thier device
i love u aac users that get overwhelmed by low tech aac
i love u full time users that struggle to use aac
i love u ppl that have been using aac for years, or grew up using aac, that still struggle to use aac
i love you aac users with multiple disabilities that make it harder to use (blind/visually impaired, mobility issues, memory issues, etc)
i love you ppl that have aac on smallest or small grid size and still get overwhelmed/ frustrated
its not morally bad to have a hard time using aac, you are not a failure or bad person either. You are not alone in your struggle and your experiences and your voice should be heard within aac communities.
be kind to urself <3

Would you be able to make a symbol for “I don’t need to be in the hospital” because I sometimes get sent against what I want and want to be able to say I don’t want that or need to be there.
"I don't need to be in the hospital."

you know those videos of dog learn or “learn” how communicate with buttons?
saw video of viral video parrot use AAC device. like full AAC device.
one hand whatever
other hand, thinking about how there language communication disabled human children & adults not have access AAC who need. because cannot afford. or because people think they not smart enough able enough to use. or because no one bother teach, or no one know how teach.
think about real disabled people use AAC and there will be people go like, “oh so like that parrot?” and give more reason to compare disabled people to animals. which they already do. for long long time.
of course not responsibility of single parrot (actually whole thing not even abt parrot more abt owner but even then they not responsible for all disabled ppl not have access etc)
but just. thinking.
about privilege about availability about different treatment about so many
wonder if owner ever mention it called AAC device & ever bother disability educate.
(cue white animal rights activists twist this & use this to justify their ableism to argue animal more value than disabled people etc)
