• 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.

4 months ago, I no longer was able to live with my mom, who doesn't have autism, like me but, a lot of other problems. We couldn't even have the simplest conversations without driving each other crazy. So I went to my sister, and tried to find a service that could a help a a person with autism, with no money, employment, transportation, or life skills. There's nothing, no government agency that can help me, only private institutions that cost more then college.
I have to go back to by mom now, I can't stay with my sister for much longer; I have to leave in a month. Everyone's saying since I have no choice, I HAVE to make it work with my mom. it doesn't work that way for people with disabilities. You can't "make" our problems work out just because our options run out. Bottom line, I NEED A PLACE TO STAY! I live be living in Norwalk, in Farifield county, Connecticut. If ANYONE can do ANYTHING for me, please, I'm begging, please help me. Total desperation here. My email address is michaelmansy@yahoo.com, my phone number is 203 524 1121. I'm Mike, 31 years old. I wouldn't do this if I wasn't completely out of choices here.

I don't think it is safe to put your full name, address, and phone number out on the internet.

Everything you post on this site can be found in google search by anyone with a keyword, so if they typed in your full name, they could find your address and phone number.

:idea:

It seems you can type and use a computer. Maybe you have more skills and abilities than you think. You can go to college that way. There's always the Pell Grant, which can help you gain valuable skills for employment :)

That advice is good. I am sure if you contact your local Welfare Office they can refer you to a social service agency that will help some, with advice at least. There are training programs for people with limitations, and you seem to be quite above average, so should do well with some training skills. Check all social service programs in your area. Try to cooperate with your mom as much as possible, and go to church and find some friends. Sometime later you can move out on your own.

I recommend you read your Bible daily and get acquainted with the Lord Jesus --start reading at John 1; John 3; John 14, and see what you can learn. Look up always!
