I am a 27 year old disabled veteran, woman. I have schizophrenia, and I am a survivor of sexual abuse as well. I think the schizophrenia was brought about by drugs I did due to the abuse, by both males and females. I am looking for housing, as my condition is worsening. I forget to shut the door when I go to the bathroom, and I realize the windows are open and everyone can see, I forget to lock my doors, I forget to put food away, I forget to check my mail, I forget everything as the voices keep me in a constant altered reality, and I am always talking to them, all day long. I have no emotions, I have no self defense to my body sexually, mentally, or emotionally. I have no feelings. I am alone, I know no one with my illness. I just recently came across NAMI, but I don't have transportation to go to the meetings. I am so scared of becoming another number and getting drugged up by the VA- which is notorious here in Fort Worth, for overmedicating.

I am not elderly, and I don't know if there are any resources available for me, or what I can do. I atleast would prefer to find a roommate, who is a woman, who is not chronically severely like bedridden ill.
