well ok heres the thing...most of you have seen my posts and know that my dad is pretty much an alcoholic, mom has high blood pressure and a bad heart, dad is a smoker and im caring for my grandfather. im 17 years old and ive finally decided that i need to take care of me. i'm trying to decide where to go because ive decided im moving out. well mom caught me purging and she starts yelling"rissie if ur gna not eat then dont eat. but dont waste my food and money by stuffing urself like a pig then puking it up. ur wasting the food." she doesnt understand that when i binge i cant help it. im in so much pain after that i need to purge bcuz i cant breath. my stomach swells and everything. i kno thats gross but thats what happens. im seriously considering moving in with another family member. i need to take care of me. so ive been looking into social security bcuz mom says she cant pay for my T much longer and that i'd better "get better quick". so im kinda stuck. sorry if this is all choppy im jotting down my thoughts as they come. ANYWAY, point is i was wondering if anyone could give me some tips. should i continue working and pay for T and bills and stuff myself? or should i try to get disability/insurance? anything is helpful thanks! xoxoxoxoRISSIExoxoxoxox
