...See more [This thread is kinda long but not too bad] Hi, friends, I'm confused about my situation and I wanna hear your advice on something. I have depression and severe anxiety (my anxiety is so bad I feel afraid to go inside the store alone because of all of the people)Anyway, my boyfriend and I have broken up, I lost my job and I have been very depressed for the last couple months following. I would cry myself to sleep and never get out of bed. My house got dirty because no one else would clean it either, my mom was in charge of that but she is depressed herself, and lacks the motivation so I have to clean up after everyone and my parents tell me that's how I earn my keep since I dont pay rent right now. We live in public housings, where the rule is if you live with your parents and you are over 18 (I'm 20) you need to either go to college or work and I have been working this whole time until now. I really want to go to college but cant afford it. I have some money saved up but not enough. I also want to move out from my parents because they are over- controlling and dont respect who I am as a person. They love me and are kind to me most the time but then they dont respect how I feel about things and tell me if I leave I'll do badly out there because of my anxiety. I just wanna do something on my own for once. I wanna leave to prove that I can do these things on my own and that even though I'm afraid sometimes I can be on my own. The only hang up is my dog isnt certified so if i leave I'm just afraid i wouldn't be able to take her. Shes really young and she still follows me everywhere. She's been so close to me and she was the last thing I hot out of the breakup. I'm the only owner shes ever known, and I love her so much I dont wanna give her away. but so many places dont allow dogs even with a note from therapist and my parents can't take her cause they already have 2 dogs and my dog isnt technically allowed to be here because I dont have a note for her yet. But she is my spport dog. Shes helped me so much through my depression. Please help.
