Hello,

My domestic partner has recently developed some sort of psychosis and has had suicide attempts and other problems in the past. I know that I need to get out, but I have very little money (just a small social security payment right now) and the constant stress at home has been severely affecting my ability to function, get my life together and put together what I need to get out of there. Has anyone else been in a similar situation? Are there resources out there?

Oh, I have Asperger's by the way. :)

I've been having SEVERE anxiety and physical stress symptoms from this. I have some medication that helps a bit, finally, but if I move, I also lose my health insurance. Argh!

What a mess :(

M

sorry to read you're having such a hard time. my family life was so insane as a kid i used to sleep in the pool hall where i worked (when i was under ten). was on my on after that.

running away worked for me. was able to survive until 17 when i joined the military. the insanity of war was just what i needed to find myself.

i was lucky i could run. i wish i had advice for your situation. i sincerely hope things work out ok for you.
