I still had my card details in my phone and was still able to spend on impulse . so he got annoyed and gave me my card back .

Anyway they have both suggested I go live in supported living . the thought of that scares me and I don't want to give up my flat so I said no .

But maybe I should consider it but I don't think I want to .

Has anyone lived in supported living ? If so what are the good and bad points ?

If you are able to do it voluntarily it is much easier and safer. You still have control over how long you need to stay. You might just need a really good rest and relaxation. It might give you some time to breathe.
Thanks for this!
