gosh, i wouldnt want to live there either. sounds horrible. i havent even had to think about any of those things thank goodness. have you thought about moving? my city was voted one of the top 10 capitals in the us or top 20 cities. i dont know, i dont pay attention. it made a top list at the end of last year. but the schools suck and the mental health system sucks, etc, etc. but i dont enjoy any of it either because i sit here in front of my computer too. agoraphobia doesnt let me go outside. i hope things get better for you. i know it may not help, but there is light at the end of that tunnel. i found it after 30 years.

Sounds like my hood. Not all the folks in it are up to no good. I live like that, no wonder I am depressed, but don't let the internet fool you, they rob here to. I had to learn that the hard way. I trust to easily and get hurt every time. Sad world. I don't know where you live. I hope something can be done, not just for you and I, but all the other hell holes like the one I live in, who know maybe one day they will find a cure. Until, I pray. That's all I have. So if you don't mind, I would like to pray also for you and all of the others that are prisoners in our homes sweet homes. My therapist says I'm the one with the problems, that I am the reason for my depression....what a kick in the head.
