And Pfrog, thank you for being brave enough to share your experiences with your mother.

I don't think my mother would kill my dog, but the fact that she says she will is very disturbing to me.

Both of my parents are also physically and emotionally abusive, but I don't feel like I have a lot of options or opportunities to better my situation. I thought that getting help with my breathing problems would help me become more independent, but, if anything, I have found that I have to do even more things now to take care of myself. I have several treatments to apply to myself plus medication and I have to be careful about avoiding allergens and breathe more purified air. I am so high-maintenance that I am more hopeless about finding more independence. When I do follow the doctor's advice, I do find it much easier to breathe.

Everyday I consider relocating to a homeless shelter because I have nothing left to lose. Then I think of all the medicines and treatments I need on a daily basis and decide against it.
