Bio

I am just a Lost Soul trying to rebuild my shattered life after going through so much. It isn't easy, but this website and the people in it has been super helpful. I think I will linger here for a little while longer.

I'm being moved from the house I've lived in for almost 30 years, leaving me shattered.

...See more I just want to stress that no, I am not being thrown out onto the street or anything like that. You see, my mother died about 6 years ago now. We moved into our house when I was about 4 years old, and I have been living in the same house ever since. I have come to see this house as basically my family home. I love it here and I love the neighborhood as well because it is so peaceful. I am surrounded by many very friendly retired and/or elderly families and throughout my entire time living here, almost nothing unsavory has ever happened on my street. However, the thing is, my house is a three-bedroom house so ever since my mother passed on, I have been classified as being over-housed. They warned me back then as well that I would eventually have to be moved so I really have no excuse. It's just that, I have only ever moved from a household once in my entire life. Not to mention again I've grown very attached to this house over the course of 30 years. They did say that they would be putting me in a one-bedroom apartment of my choosing so I won't be left out to dry. I have Social Anxiety you see, and it's been getting the best of me ever since I got the news. Even though I knew this was coming, when it actually happens it is extremely anxiety inducing. I worry about the new place I'll end up in and the crime rates for other areas and it scares me. I have a sister that will help me pick out a good spot, but still, having to leave after all this time is just an extremely emotional experience. If I could, I would stay in this same household until I also passed on, but sadly that is just not a realistic option. Any advice or words of comfort would be greatly appreciated.
