My name is Hope I am 30 and I am autistic. my father used to be a pastor. My mother knew what was happening and did nothing to protect me or my brothers. My whole family wants to pretend nothing happened and calls my crazy. I am currently stuck at home with my parents and my dad recently assaulted me physically, and the police did nothing but threaten to arrest me. I am scared to go to a shelter and I currently have no income. The help I was supposed to get here in Pittsburgh has failed me. My service coordinator, doctors, psychiatrists, everyone I don't think truly believes me and it is so hard for me to trust people now. I have no idea what to do with my life. I feel trapped. I wish I never moved to Pittsburgh but I had no where else to go.
