First thread here. Need some real input: Crisis call Yoohooo!!! Scared of doing this. No one will answer? Really depressed to the point of being frozen. Had made plans to get back home. Son holds all my money to do this- he promised he'd get me cross country, I even had housing set up.
Lease is up here, can't breathe here(COPD), daughter was moderating-son and i don't get along-he's nasty and unkind-then; out of the blue: I have to go and live in a place he wants me to live in or not move at all (a house he plans on buying in the countryside of another state). Daughter is going along with him. I'd be all alone, very cold there, high altitude, totally controlled by son--in a house. Therapist says "NO!" called Domestic Abuse counselors here--"No, don't do it"--but I have no where to go, no money to move, and there is no where here i can live. Must get back home, need the Social Services of home, need excellent Medical care there, need home, need a studio apartment of home-too old for a house.
Scared, depressed, completely alone out here, only have my disability checks. Thankful for that. My old dog is dying a little more every day.
Anyone? Told kids "Goodbye" last night. Shrink in NY told me "Your children are Toxic to you-remember that". Totally Bereft--true.
