I recommend it! Even if you have to have roommates, it's better than to live with an abuser.
I don't have a lot of money, I don't think I'd be able to make ends meet. My parents still pay for my food and clothing. I get SSI plus I make a little extra money buying things cheap and reselling them on Ebay, but that's my whole income. I qualify for section 8 affordable housing but it's going to be about 4 years until my number is up. I don't have any real life friends so I don't know where I'd find people to live with. I guess if I keep selling stuff on Ebay and saving up I could move out sooner rather than later but it's not as if I can just move out tomorrow. Thank you for trying to help me.
Thanks for this!
