I felt an inner drive to apply. Well tonight my mom got mad and was hitting my arm in the car. That hasn't happened in a while but it's kind of pushing me toward moving out. I have been on the fence. I feel like God wants me out but I'm too afraid to do it, now less afraid. I'm debating about telling my brother. I did hit her back once but she kept hitting my arm not that hard but the act is the problem. She did it in anger is the problem.

I'm sorry your mom did that. If she thinks it's acceptable to hit you in anger, no matter to what degree, then you are making the right decision to move out. Best wishes in finding housing very quickly.

I agree with Arbie. It’s time for you to leave. I’m sorry that is happening to you. Good luck finding housing.

I don't think that anyone should hit another person or animal, ever.

My brother still thinks I should stay. He says it's due to old age just deal with it.

I would try to move out if I were you. Sounds like the situation at home is not good.

Moving can be stressful, lonely and possibly dangerous. Although there are many avenues that could be found to a find a new, safe and clean place of living (college, art, residency programs, live-in employment) there are also many dangerous people and places out there. Can you afford the move? Do you have a support system to assist you? If you feel like you are in a dangerous situation at home, seek help through a medical professional or crisis organization. Also, have you considered family or group therapy?

I'm in individual and group therapy, I also have access to an adult mental health worker. I have a case manager as well. They want me to come to my own decision.

You would qualify for subsidized housing. You’ve been debating it for awhile. I am not sure why you can’t apply? Not sure why you think it’s dangerous. Probably less dangerous than living with people who hit you. It could be lonely to live alone but you might meet new neighbors in subsidized complex.

Is an adult group home a possibility? I know it's a coin toss as to whether it would work out. Some are better run than others.
