Long story short I was evicted from my previous apartment for propping a fire door open which made a lot of noise whenever people would come and go with shopping bags. They gave me 7 days to leave and I had nowhere to go. My family wouldn't let me live with them even after they said that I could ask them for help whenever I needed it. I had 900$ to my name so I decided I'd leave the cat with the sheriff which came to make sure I'd leave seeing as how I couldn't find him a home and I have no friends either.

There was a crisis team that showed up at my door for half the year since I sent my "aunt" an email and in it I mentioned I felt like killing myself (I had just lost a lot of weight and I still couldn't find a date plus my acne was killing my game) so a crisis team showed up at my door unannounced. Fast forward to eviction day and I get a call from them as I'm walking to the bank and they told me they would put me in a hotel for a couple nights til they found something more suitable. They ended up arresting me and putting me in a psych ward for four months against my will. During this time I gained all the weight back since I binge ate to cure my boredom since there is nothing to do in that place.

Now I never want to see them again. I stopped taking all the medications since I left and I don't feel any different. I was diagnosed as a paranoid schizophrenic despite never having any real suicidal thoughts and I was deemed a danger to myself and others.

You have certainly had a hard time of it. I assume that now you have a place to live but I am very sorry that you had to give up your cat!

Well, on one hand, it doesn't sound like anyone helped you very much. In your family's defense, I take any threats of killing oneself seriously bc I lost a brother that way. I rather lock someone up and have them hate me forever but them be ok than lose them to a violent awful death. Still I understand you also. I prefer my cats and dog to my family quite often except for my sister and nephews. They are really cool, but my sister and I didn't always get along.
