Houston, we've got a problem!

my mom’s buying a house. the total mortgage is going to be 4200. we are sharing with another family, so we’ll be paying around 2100. so I’d have to cough up around 660… :disappointed_relieved:

that’s ridiculous! I know I can rent a room for less than that! :thinking:

Here’s the plan:
Plan A: move into a homeless shelter.

that’s it. :stuck_out_tongue:

yeah. or I can move in with my relatives next door! new plan! the rent would be pretty much the same! :smiley:

I’d probably have to live in the livingroom though! but in this situation, I ain’t gunna be picky! :slight_smile:

I think we are incapable of caring for our bodies and noone is offering to help, so what are our choices.
It seems like the universe does not want us around. There is no way out of this hell.

Sleep on the floor

Waiting list for Christian centers

40 a week

Working or actively looking for work

I mean people are willing to help. the question is “how much am I going to be willing to give, in order to receive?” :slight_smile:

Only the people rehabilitating into work succeed in homeless shelters

It’s usually last ditch and don’t care

We save them for now

$4200 a month? At current interest rates, it must be a big house. If so, you could be living in luxury!

The apartment I used to live in in Indiana cost me $650 a month, all utilities included. No way I would pay that much to rent a room.

Then again, when I moved here I payed $450 a month for a room. But still. That’s a lot to rent a room. Might as well move to a lower cost of living area.

I don’t need luxury though. :stuck_out_tongue:

if my mom does, then she can have that. but she and my brother better be prepared to pay 1050 each, without me there…

the cops would likely put me in the homeless shelter anyhow. either that or jail. I would prefer they put me in the shelter, especially since I get money.

I’m not looking for success, at this point in my life anyways. I’m just looking to live. :stuck_out_tongue:

no, it probably won’t. changing living arrangements is not always an easy thing, and this is the first time it would ever happen to me. staying indoors is very important to me. I guess I would just have to adapt to my new environment, wherever it turns out to be. once I adapt, everything will smooth out. :slight_smile:

That’s absurdly high. I don’t blame you for wanting to look at other living situations. Do you think it would be good for your mental health to live elsewhere though?

Is it out of the question for you to get a lil part time job? A month or two and you’ll have what you need.

homeless shelter will most likely help me with that, too. :smiley:

but if my relatives let me stay at there place, then I can sleep at my relatives at nighttime and stay at the library/outside during the daytime. I can apply for part time jobs on my laptop. :wink:

I think you should stay with your family. You never know how things would go if you moved in with a bunch of strangers in a rented room in a house.

Instead, I’d haggle with your family and say you can only afford a certain amount.

I’m a male… you do know that, right? :stuck_out_tongue:

what of it, doc? :disappointed_relieved:

Yes, with a mental illness I assume?

It’s just that living with strangers is different to living with relatives if you have a mental illness.

Actually, what are you diagnosed with, if you don’t mind me asking?

The most prominent cause of homeless is broken relationships
