Wish I lived someplace secure

Partner and I live with their parents. One parent is regularly threatening to kick us out. She did so tonight because the cats got in a fight (ours and hers).

We’re here because we’re both disabled, and partner is currently applying for disability. Can’t afford our own place. Nowhere else to go. She berates us as lazy, stupid, “grown children”. I felt worthless before I got here, and she makes it worse however she can. Seems to delight in it.

I just want to feel safe and not be afraid I’ll be homeless for things I can’t control. I don’t expect anyone to have advice for an impossible situation. I’m tired and it doesn’t feel worth living like this.

I hope your partner gets disability and you can move to your own place without the abuse.

Are you planning to move out?

Yes, we have plans. It’s just the money we don’t have. At the rate I’m able to save, it feels like it’ll be forever before we can make actual moves. The disability process in the US is so slow and tedious. Thanks for the support.

Rental voucher perhaps?

I’m in a similar situation, and my heart goes out to you. It’s awful being threatened with homelessness and struggling with sz. I hope things turn around for you, you deserve it.

The waitlists in my area are all 2+ years long unfortunately.

Thank you for saying that. You deserve better too. :heart:
