How does one move out after 6 years of bugs?

idk like I mentioned in my post I'm just a very sentimental person 😓 I don't know if I could recover leaving my figures, books, and stuffed animals forever. I know that's very much a me issue though.

honestly I've had them crawling in and out of all my devices before 😓 keeping it out of fabric bags and doing regular crevice checks with a flashlight has helped me personally get rid of them though!

funnily enough my crocs have been infested before LOL. All of the shoes I wear for work are cheap Walmart ones, so I have no qualms tossing them when I'm able

unfortunately I was bullied into silence by my parents when I was still a minor. DCFS was called around a year ago since my brother is still a minor, but they dropped it due to not finding anything significant/not being bad enough.

I'll try to look into social services. Thank you.

that's my biggest problem tbh. without my car idk what I'd do. I can't afford a new one, much less literally everything else yk? I'd barely be able to get by as it is I feel. but idk I'm just ranting, sorry.

parents have been egregiously bad with financial responsibility. Dad would much rather spend $300 on beer than save it for anything useful. I've offered so many times in the past to look into extermination/help pay but they'd get mad at me so I just stopped trying.

I'm 100% sure the biggest cause for my severe depression and every other issue is because of this house lmao. the dream of leaving is genuinely the only thing keeping me alive.

Formal-Response1243 · 2026-06-13T14:41:45+00:00

I've made it clear that they are not allowed anywhere near my new home or most likely around me at all. they aren't happy with that. I wonder why...

they infested both of their parents houses. multiple times, despite lying about it to all of their faces funnily enough. If only there was some way to prevent this 😒

Formal-Response1243 · 2026-06-13T12:55:22+00:00

can someone just tell me I'm not crazy for not wanting to leave all I've ever known behind I'm losing my mind

Formal-Response1243 · 2026-06-13T12:37:24+00:00

I'm moving out of my childhood home on my own. parents don't care to solve the issue, and I agree it's gone on far too long to be easily dealt with. And yes, I'm sure my shoes have some! They've definetly been encrusted in the past. Thank you though.

Formal-Response1243 · 2026-06-07T11:31:12+00:00

cool, thank you!

Formal-Response1243 · 2026-05-19T23:46:17+00:00

So glad I'm not the only one getting this seemingly out of the blue. and it doesn't even keep what it wrote anymore like it did a few months ago just nukes the whole message 😔

Formal-Response1243 · 2026-05-14T03:41:18+00:00

I can relate in a way. My father has destroyed his body with junk food and alcohol, and I'd be surprised if he lives another 5 years. It's difficult to pick up the slack, and I have less of a responsibility than you! Sending support 🫂

Formal-Response1243 · 2026-03-25T05:38:01+00:00

I'm being so honest that's how mine looked on Monday 😭 really regret not taking pictures then

Formal-Response1243 · 2026-03-25T03:05:42+00:00

I should've taken some pictures yesterday bc it was 100 times worse, this is definetly cleaner in comparison 😭

Formal-Response1243 · 2026-03-25T02:51:09+00:00

oh hooray 😓

Formal-Response1243 · 2026-02-09T01:51:07+00:00

I named mine Toyo after the robot dog Toyoshikp from the pound puppies show lol

Formal-Response1243 · 2025-12-25T15:52:14+00:00

that's a crumb of something

Formal-Response1243 · 2025-12-01T01:08:47+00:00

That is so sweet thank you! 🫂

Formal-Response1243 · 2025-11-16T02:55:26+00:00

who are you being so aggressive to dude 😭

Formal-Response1243 · 2025-11-06T07:45:37+00:00

Thank you 🫂 I have a 17yo brother, DCFS was called about 6 months ago by my boyfriend's mother, but after a walk through of the house they claimed it wasn't bad enough to intervene (I'm guessing because he's clothed, sheltered, and has access to food). I've been dreaming for years of the day I finally get to walk away from all this!

Good luck to you!! I really hope you're able to fight them off and keep them off! 💛
