Off medication our longest stay in a state was a year and we'd go through at least 4 apartments in a year spending at least a month or more homeless looking for places. We spent a lot of time without one utility or another often just waiting for the sheriff's office to get around to us. This is how we know it takes 2months to evict someone and then the serriff may not get around to you for months. We just couldn't keep it together even with assistance. No one of our family knew we moved around more than once a year but they have been shocked we have been in the same complex for 4 years. We're shocked that we have utilities most of the time.

This is the first place I've ever unpacked and had more than a microwave, laptop, load worth of clothing, and small bag of art supplies. We always had a portable playpen and a junk mattress that we could leave. yes I've been desperate to move but we have stuff we want to move, we want a place to move to that will accept our dog, we want money to freely move, so we can decorate, have utilities turned on in our name as soon as we move, pdoc, t and gp. All that takes massive amount of time.

Do you have a therapist? Mine keeps me in check with my goals and mood.
