> Matt I'm here in NC just a plane ride away. These things always seem to happen to you Mom 2 Fondly, Phillipa
Mate all I can suggest is that you are now 18, you have Phillipa offering you somewhere to crash, all you have to do is save some money and get your own place/space. When I was 21 I saved up enough money for first months rent and took myself and my 18 year old sister and her best friend out of the situation we were all living in at the time. I have to admit it doesn't sound nowhere near as bad as your situation is at the moment. I'm now 35 and have never gone back home, I have a great relationship with my parents now and I don't regret what I did for a second. Major point here!!!!!!!!! I live in Australia and most health care here is free. Just make sure you don't put yourself into a situation where you can't afford to seek medical attention. Cover your bases and think ahead, be smart about your choice and maybe you can save your realtionship with your mother if you aren't living with her. I hope you can sort it out, I wish you all the best, Paul.
