I just got out of inpatient a week ago. I have BPD, Bipolar, and PTSD. At 46 yrs old I have spent many months in inpatient programs. A few times were after suicide attempts, most were self admissions. I found the time away from reality being around people going through similar things to be helpful. My regular Shrink is so concerned about me she wants me in state hospital. the county i live in is helping me out now as I have no housing. My family has all given up on me and despite the fact they all have extra bedrooms they would rather me be homeless, even though I can pay my portion of rent. My credit is shot cause of waiting for disability caused me to miss many bill payments, so renting alone is impossible. Plus, I need someone around to keep me going. The thing that bothers me is I am a peaceful quiet guy who mostly spends time isolated, so I don't cause problems with others, yet my family is mostly self serving and don't want to feel obligated to help others whatsoever. For this reason I am trying to leave the state, and my family, behind. Any suggestions on where to live???
