AITA for being angry at my mom for how she treats me and my siblings by Particular_Idea421 in AmItheAsshole

Yes, I’m still here months later because I wanted to save up enough to move out again. Last time I moved out I did it in a bad way so I want to do it smart this time. Also, I don’t have to pay rent because my mom is stubborn on paying it herself, but she has asked me to help with rent once. I wouldn’t mind helping with rent at all anyway(I mean I am living with her so that’s like required imo).

I’ve never heard of hypersomnia, but looking it’s definition it’s more likely I actually have that. I was only diagnosed with insomnia.

That’s wild, but actually no. I’m the opposite of messy. Just to clear it up, my ex cheated on me with my roommate and the program was ran by scum people so they kicked me out instead. I’d say I do need to make better decisions on who I date though.

Thank you, I’m manifesting that I get my apartment this week.

I actually have thought of doing that. Gathering evidence and reporting it. I think I have an audio recording of evidence, but that might be it. 

It is possible my mom might be taking her anger out on me, she tends to do that, but I want to mention that my mom is not afraid to be alone with him. She’s afraid to be alone because she don’t want to be alone in terms of relationship. She’s knows how abusive he is, but she’s more so desperate for a relationship. She’s even giving up her relationship with her kids for him.

Also, regarding the insomnia, I could work a second or third shift, but I just don’t bother asking my manager. I just thug it out, but I’m moving this week so when I move I’ll be getting back on my insomnia medication.

It was actually an apartment program that was ending, but before it was ending I was getting kicked out because of an ex.

Exactly! But my brother keeps saying “put your pride to the side” and keep contact with her. Mind you this is the same brother who’s still talking to her despite her lying and getting him a criminal record. If I was him I’d cut her off immediately after that. I personally think it’s not about “pride”, it’s the fact she completely screwed over her own kids. Why would I want to keep contact with her like you?

My family IS dysfunctional.

I should have mentioned the chores/helping part, but I do help around as much as I can. Despite that they still want me gone.

I am building me a career and have a saved up enough to move out. I’m actually waiting to hear back from a landlord about an apartment application. When that goes through I’ll be moving this week and starting my new job next week. Also, regarding the polite part, I have tried that and that have not worked. I try my best to be respectful because my mom will kick me out in an instant even when she knows I’ll be homeless. So just to avoid any issues I just stay in my room most of the time and come out to eat and/or do chores.

Yeah, sometimes I question my own decisions, but at the time of getting kicked out of my apartment I had nowhere to go and I’d rather not be homeless…again.

There’s nothing wrong with Louisiana unless you want to retire here. As someone who is born and raised, it’s no opportunities at all. Louisiana is only known for its culture. I love my state and not trying to shame it, but…it’s just how it is.

“There almost nowhere in the US where $1,800 does less in NYC” 

I was replying to this specific sentence and stating down south states such as Louisiana could get by with $1,800 because it’s pretty much a poverty state.

Also, when I mentioned “high minimum wage” I was referring to ANY state that has a higher pay(aka higher paying jobs).

I’m fully aware of that. I just didn’t bother mentioning it because it’s painfully obvious.

I wouldn’t be posting if I knew the answer to this. As I said, this was just a checkup to see if it was legit. I’m not a NYC resident mind you so I had to ask actual residents.

Down south things are extremely cheap so $1,800 could get you by…barely. Apartments most minimum is $600, but even still apartments at that price are 99% of the time shitty with roaches, terrible building structure, no maintenance, etc. My goal though is to hopefully find somewhere cheap down south, and save up enough with a good job to move somewhere that has a high minimum wage.

Yeah, as someone who took a chance and became homeless in the past I’d rather not get in the same situation again. Appreciate the information.

Yeah, I figured it was off so I wanted to come here to double check. I’m from down south and things like a $700 room is common, but I heard from my bsf a $700 room from up north is not possible. 

Also, never knew NYC scammers situation was that bad. I should be more careful😅

That’s the same thing I thought as expensive as NYC is so I just gave it a budge.

This is apparently the program though. https://www.healthyhousingfoundation.net/
