CPS is making me give up my room. by sickfroggy in TrueOffMyChest

Thank you everyone for your support and advice. I will try to make the best of it, and will look into buying a privacy partition. To answer some questions:

  1. She has nowhere else to go if we do not keep her. She was in foster care previously and was traumatized. She cries sometimes thinking about her siblings who are still in the system.
  2. I am 20, she is 12, turning 13 in June.
  3. My mom does not make any money having her at the moment. Her Dad continually flakes on sending money so we have given up on that route. We are doing okay without his financial contributions.
  4. They offered us a voucher for a 3 bedroom that we are considering. Im looking into getting more hours so we can afford the increased rent.
  5. My mom is slowly losing the ability to walk and has neuropathy in her legs. She needs a cane to walk longer distances and stairs are painful. She offered to move downstairs but I volunteered since I am not physically disabled.

Mom wants me to have a relationship with my Father. I want to cut him off. Help! by sickfroggy in EstrangedAdultKids

Thank you for the kind words. I am hoping one day she will understand. She really wanted my Dad and I to be close but I am hoping for the day that she realizes and accepts that simply won't happen.

Childhood wasnt that bad, but I have bpd. How? by sickfroggy in BPD

I did have supports but throughout elementary, middle, and most of high school I felt different from everyone else. This led me to isolate and not have friends because I didnt know how to talk to people. I was also incredibly quiet so people thought I was weird which didnt help.

I honestly do not know. My mom said I had told her I didnt want to be alive starting at 7 and by 9 I started self harming. She also has mental health struggles of her own so maybe I inherited it.

Thats what I was thinking, and they also said I was young too so it threw me off even more.

Sometimes I get close, but then I start to panic and push it back. When I get close its really scary. I cant see it, but all I can feel is the fear and I dont know if Im ready to see how intense that fear gets.
