Do you have to be low-functioning to live in supported living/group home?

I have before, had someone cook us meals and give out meds. A lot of my roommates sleep a lot though.

I was due to be a long stay psych patient at worst and in a group home at best then I met the person who became my wife. Sometimes it just takes someone believing in you.

I am really disappointed at how I still get treated sometimes.

I want to stand up for myself.

I was bullied as a child , teen and adult but I was raised by such strong women who would never allow such .

My boyfriends x would tell him to fu## off and she bossed him around from what I have heard.

Why am I not as tough as my mum zzz that raised me…

My man is usually not in bed before 2am.

When he is up he usually plays computer games or watches a movie and sometimes he seems to binge eat and even drink all out soft drink sometimes and chain smoke.

I have never complained but only ask if I can do anything for him because sometimes his body hurts if I wake up to go to toilet or so.

When he is :zzz: asleep I feel like I walk on egg shells and am not aloud out of bed when he is there unless it’s desperate toilet need.

Last night I felt he was showing a start to what could easily become abusive behaviour.

Every day I was praying thank you for my man n being grateful to n for him but is that mutual…

I told my father he did not want to let me drink soy milk.nor buy it.
My father said I should explain to him that I can buy soy milk if I want and he should not fight with me about such a thing.

Surprisingly my father said that if my man became too controlling and abusive by doing so that I should not take it .

I am thankful my father cares.
He loves my man but wants him to not behave in such ways to me.

Ofcourse the only man my mum would ever approve of for me is Julian Assange .lol

This night he started talking to me in a loud voice and he was so angry at me because I woke up around 2am.

He said I should not use my mobile but I was texting my sick Aunty on my mobile phone
That I love her.

I also made a hot chockolate and he got even angry telling me I am not aloud to be up or have hot chockolate.

He was playing computer game and looking at a forum he is a member in where groupie like woman post selfies of their tits etc all the time and seem to throw them self at men etc

But he eats deep fried food som nights when I’m asleep ,has finished all our soft drink cans etc
I like a binge eat because he does not eat much daytime.

He seriously told me to go to bed and I told him I’m having hot chockolate.

He has been a great partner and boyfriend but we have had some difficulties such as when his friend pretty much said I have ugly tits cause I don’t fill out a acup .
I did not say how sickly obese they are…
They have big saggy tits n I did not comment that.
They are so obese that it’s not chubby n cute but actually unhealthy.

His friend said I do not deserve him.
He invited us to dinner but after last dinner there where all at the table were so rude to me I am not going there again.
I felt aweful around them.

I’m trying to improve myself inside n out for myself and my man and am even saving up to get breast enlargement for him but i am not even half the way with my savings yet.

I do not want to be around people I feel are not treating me very nicely or well enough.

I even apologised for things that were their fault just to keep the peace.

I like some of his friends and family.
In a way I love everyone but down like everyone not their behaviour.

My boyfriend did not apologise this morning but he did make me a coffee and was nice to me.
So he is forgiven!:hushed::stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes::blush:

It’s the longest romantic relationship I ever had .
It’s been o et a year.
(Anders was more complicated and I was so sick and not there for him and can only apologise.

I might not be easy to live with.

I want to stand up for myself and not lose who I am.

I do serve my man and enjoy doing so and even make drinks for his friends when they are here.
I ask ā€œwould you like a drinkā€
To be polite and serve .

I do not seem like a tough :hatching_chick: chick.

It was recently I thought about assisted living somewhere close to my family and with my own house or section as I need lone time I would not share room with stranger but thankfully I am able to live by myself.

I even lived by myself when I was way more psychotic than I was in hospital yet somehow got through it .
I did not feel I coped but managed to get through it by isolating but it was difficult.

I am told I am independent as I clean cook do shopping pay bills water plants and feed animals etc

I wanted to do aged care work for just one person who I feel ok comfortable with.

I serve my man but I do not want him to treat me badly but it seems to go away after sleep.

Could I say f### off to him like his x probably did.

Did he respect her and not me …

Better to be alone than in abuse.

When I was bullied I was stupid because I hung out with them as teen n child etc

I should of been more a loner as I am now.

I love my man but he should not treat me badly as he sometimes has but I have been bad too.

We forgive each other.

He could have undiagnosed ptsd and I want to be understanding and good to and for him but I do not want to lose who I am in the process .

Blessed be our relationship and may we improve ourselves.

I will still thank God for my man .

We should find a solution for when it gets that way.

I love him so much and he is so good to me most of the time .

May we be good to and for each other.

But may I do what I have too if it gets too bad.

I need to keep myself .

They do look down at me a lot of them like they are better and I’m trash.

I want to be appreciated aswell as respected for who I am.
