    Problems with hoarding

    I definitely have been traumatized and that seems to be the root cause. I’m trying to go back before the trauma when I was happy. Also I got bullied in school for having second hand ratty clothes. To counteract that mom took me shopping at some nice clothing stores. When I tried on new clothes I...

    Problems with hoarding

    I think I am failing. I’ve been getting rid of stuff but more is coming in than going out. I tried looking through all my stuff today and there is nothing I can find to get rid of. I want it all. It’s nice stuff and I can’t afford to buy much. I have a depot injection coming up so I could talk...

    This is so hard

    Lately I've been fantasizing about what it would be like to go off of Independent living support. No one would be there to tell me what to do. But then I remember what life was like when I didn't have it. How I struggled. I had to sell my things to get by. I depended on my parents too much for...

    This is so hard

    I'm not sure why people would think I'm homeless just because I carry a handbag. Lots of people always carry handbags or backpacks all the time. Don't know what to do about the bra thing. I have sensory issues and find them uncomfortable. I usually wear slip on ones or just an undershirt. But...

    This is so hard

    Okay I just misread what she said about my boobs and the homelessness thing. She said she put people in their place on my behalf when they said things. So that’s nice. I have no idea why she pushes so hard to go to outings though. Maybe she thinks it’s good for me. But my coordinator knows I...

    This is so hard

    Well it certainly isn’t working through text. Tried telling her through text twice that she is too hard on me and she just sent a “lmao 😂. “ Then I end up caving and send a heart emoji or something. Had to get my coordinator to get involved to tell her I didn’t want to go to a dance because I’ve...

    Very uncomfortable

    Thank you everyone for the comments. Unfortunately after months of doing okay, I started hearing them again. I have depot tomorrow though so maybe I’ll be able to talk to my psychiatrist. The depot nurse is also very helpful. Hopefully they don’t just do an increase. I take so much at night that...

    This is so hard

    I guess I have the same problem. I don’t know how to be assertive. She is more easy to get on with when we are away from home. At least I have other workers as well. It hasn’t always been bad when she is at home with me because she is good with conversation. But Thursday was a bad day.

    This is so hard

    She lectured me about some other things but I don't feel like going into detail. Thursday sucked.

    This is so hard

    So I had her for three days. We got a lot done. The first two days were nice because we were out doing things. But then come Thursday I was at home because I didn't feel like going out. I wanted her to help me cook lasagna. It was just frozen from a box. She was really bossy telling me I should...

    This is so hard

    I think it just gets to me because it's like having a second mother that I live with, telling me what I should do. All well. At least it's what gets things done. Most of the time. I must admit I did miss her while she was away for so long. I found without her, reality was getting too intense and...

    This is so hard

    I think I will be fine financially as long as I don’t spend so much on lunch. Since I have her later in the day, I can get her help to cook supper.

    This is so hard

    My original worker for independent living support is coming back soon. There was just fill ins all summer long. No one told me to take a shower. No one told me to clean. It was great. But my original worker is coming back from her break and she will be cracking the whip. In a way I'm relieved...

    Feel like running away again.

    There once was a time when I lived with my parents in my twenties, that I had the most freedom I ever had. I was done school, no job, not many responsibilities. I had a bike and I would travel into town at night and go shopping. Sometimes I would bike to the beach and sleep in the sand...

    Feel like running away again.

    I looked at the hotel options in my area and there really aren't any good deals. All expensive, not a nice place to stay. So back packing it is. I thought now that I've got my period, the urge to run would go. But it's still here. But I'm on social media again lol. I also haven't showered in a...
