I'm In Danger

Post Reply New Topic

I'm in danger at the group home, I have ALOT of physical pain in my leg, my knee, my back, my whole right side, my mental health not doing good either, my ankle can really hurt, sometimes both my ankles can hurt, my foot is paralyzed. There this one woman that I HATE the most, she is sooo strict, sooooo rude & uncaring, she almost caused me a meltdown this morning. I need to get out of here before I die, I'm having chest pains, I stopped breathing a few times, I'm thinking about dying ALOT, I been praying to die. I'm sooooooo unhappy here & I'm suffering sooo much. I emailed my sister for my money, she won't give it to me, I wish I can get money somewhere else, I wish someone cared. I feel sooooo alone & very scared.

I am very sorry, Kitty4670. I wish I knew what to say.

That sounds like a pretty bad situation for sure, and I'm sorry you're dealing with that. You may be able to get some help though you can call 2-1-1 to be connected to local social services. But I also found some other places you could call that might be helpful.

There is an advocacy group called Long-Term Care Ombudsman in California their crisis line is 1-800-231-4024 and they can investigate your concerns confidentially. Seems like they specifically help people in group homes/long term care facilities.

And also, Adult Protective Services statewide number is 1-833-401-0832

As well as Disability Rights California 1-800-776-5746 you can call for legal advocacy.

I'm sorry you're hurting; Kitty4670 ... I hope something changes for you.

I’m so sorry, Kitty. Don’t like the sound of this. Like what services Sweetleaf is referring to.

Without money, without support of those who care, creating the life you choose, to be in control of how you live etc is very difficult, if not, impossible.

Sending love & all my best. Sorry I’ve not been able to respond or support as I would have liked, if things were different. Have replied to your pm. xx
