I'm 22 years old and live with my parents in Arizona. Besides working for a small time at my school I don't have any experience. I've tried to get a job before but it just falls through. I have Borderline Personality Disorder and things have been getting worse lately.

I need to get away from my parents. I love them to death but my family is the thing making my mental stability worse. I've been trying to get on some mental health disability but nothing is happening. People just tell me to get on AHCCCS but they are not taking any new patients for at least a year.

I have panic attacks so many times throughout the day because I have no idea how I'm supposed to get any help. I am so clueless and alone on this. I am very envious of my friend that lives in Sweden(not envious in a bad way, mind you) she is getting money in what seems like a mental disability type senario and can afford her own little apartment and some things.

Even if it means getting into a tiny, studio apartment.. I don't care. I just need out. Does anyone have any idea on what I can do or look into?

I'm not sure what help is available in Arizona, but I would check with the county health department. They should know what is available. Good luck to you.
