I need help.

I have no money and neither does my mother. We are being evicted. She can’t find a job. I’m in college. I work and go to school. We have been struggling month to month for years now. Practically my entire life. We fight all the time saying hurtful things and even getting physical. I usually find a way to be optimistic and I am constantly concentrating on figuring out a way to make money and help my situation. The apartment gets destroyed during our arguments. I get blamed for a lot. I try not to blam my mother but I can’t help but be frustrated. I am giving up. I don’t no what to do. I smoke weed to help stay calm and positive. It definitely isn’t an answer. I really need help. I don’t know what to do. I just want my mother and I to have the kind of life we’ve been waiting for. I want to take trips and go out and not worry everyday. I dont know what else I can do. Please - any kind of help or advice is appreciated.

Anonymous, you raise several problems that need addressing but one stands out more then the others and could be at the root of all others. If you choose to sit and wait for life to provide you all of your needs someday you will spend a lifetime living in a state of total frustration and disappointment. Sounds like that is exactly what you and your mother are doing. If you would like to talk and discover solutions we will be happy to talk with you. We will need more background info to help you.

Thanks for your reply - your right. But I dont know what else to do. I work 2 jobs and go to school. Our situation was a result of her waiting. Venting so far has helped some though. Its just been a long cycle and I dont know how much more of it I can take.

Seriously…stop smoking weed.

Maybe separate from your mother and find a place to live in with roomies?

If that’s not an option…I suggest that you seek out a counselor at the school you’re going to…talking face-to-face with someone outside of your mother can really help.
