• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

So my mom recently had a heart attack and was evicted from her place, I decided to take her, my brothers and 2 dogs in. Of course my dad who going to be homeless as well.

Here's how it played out. My dad has zero respect for me, does not speak to me in my own home he talks to wveryone but me, eats the food I provide and tells me he doesn't have to help with kids bc theyre my responsibility. He told me the back rent I have to pay is my fault. I shouldn't ask him to help or pitch in in any way bc that would be wrong and he'd never do that to me. But he doesn't help in anyway. I also forgot to mention he took my car keys without asking me when I confronted him he said I have to talk to my mom and he just kept saying, bye,bye,,bye and hung up on me.

I've debated calling the police to get him out but I wish I were stronger bc I worry about what would happen to him. I know im being stupid. I just don't get the audacity for people who have nowh3re to just treat me like this just because they're my parent..

Give him 2 weeks, then evict him.
If need be, call the Sherrif and have him escorted out.
You can even be pleasant about it and tell him you are calling the Sherrif's office now so he has time to pack.

How old are your brothers? Are they working? Do they chip in?

Peace and Blessings
