Funny, I was just on the verge of a new push, to change my life. I barely had the energy for that, I certainly don't have the strength to have homelessness added to the mix nor staying at home.
I have only one thing going for me. I'm pretty smart and when determined, when the cards are all on the table, I can push through some pretty impossible situations.
I guess I'm about to find out if I have enough left in the recesses of my soul to make it happen and fly out of here like a Phoenix. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

I could ask friends for a place to stay but they have helped enough. I'm not going to be a burden on anyone, anymore. I'll have to figure this out on my own. Just make it happen...

That sounds like a really difficult situation. I hope your able to figure something out soon. If I was rich or had my own place, I would be happy to help you out. Unfortunately, I am stuck living in my parent's house until I can find a better job.

Thanks man! We're all in the sam boat. Besides, I don't want to be anyone's burden. I'm just going to have to deal with it. This is a bad time for this to happen as I don't really want to go on living but maybe it will serve as "shock therapy" and my instincts will kick in.
I guess I'm about to find out what I' made. I don't think there's anything left. We'll see.
Bad timing....Bad timing...but, aren't all bad situation that way!

From what I have read of your posts, I think you are one of the strongest people here. You will figure something out. If I believed in a higher power, I would pray for you. I will keep my fingers crossed though. Good luck!

You're in quite a difficult or 'challenging' situation, to say the least. You don't live too far from me...if I could, I'd offer you to come stay with me, but like others here, I live with my brother and family 
Could you stay at one of those extended stay places? Obviously I don't know your financial situation but it may get you out of the home and not in the streets. Just a suggestion!
Keep us posted and You're in my thoughts

Thanks IntheLabyrinth for the kinds words! Cowboyup, you're too sweet. I think to start off with, I will stay out of the house for as long as I can. I'll only come back to shower and sleep (to start off with).
I really need a quiet place to be alone to focus on my course project. But, I'll have to go to the library and find a good cafe.

*Evil: being profane (nearly violent) psychotic rants that last for hours and hours.

I'm a poor person too. We understand eachother, haha.
I'm finally planning on moving out of my parents' house too, and I can't freaking wait. They are coming back in 7 months and I want to have an apartment by then.
I told my bro I'm willing to be homeless if that's what it takes. I refuse to live with my parents anymore. I'm 28 and I'm way past due to get out of my parents' house.
If I have to I'll donate plasma twice a week. I have a job but it's minimum wage and only like 11 hours a week.

I can't believe I didn't come to this conclusion earlier!! (How messed up was I?) For now, I will keep out of the house. Only to come back to shower and sleep. That should buy me enough time. It will almost be like not living there!

All the crap you're dealing with now will eventually pay off. It will pay off at some point. When you can handle high stress situations that others can't.
As for now, i would say, try to stay with a family member. I know easier said than done. I've always had problems living with my Dad, and always feared that if i actually spoke my mind, he would surely kick me out. Well, i'm 23 now and still havn't spoke my mind. But, i moved out last year, so that helped a lot. Catch-22 is that speaking your mind is the key to the relationship being healed.

I knew this was coming a lot of years ago
I'm quite surprised that I was aware of it, predicting. It's a tough task to cope with approaching homelessness. I don't agree with pessimism or optimism. I have always been entirely realistic. A strong believer of realism.
I've had it sweet to be provided with mortgage insurance when in between jobs, which I chose when I started. I could have said no to that option, it took me a while - dilemma - like a lottery - wasting a few £$€ as a premium and lucky to get a long term claim to keep me afloat. I've had the notice it finished for 2012. Strangely, still paying the same premium each month for 2013
Just clutching at straws of any employer to keep me going for more than 3 months. It's clear it won't happen. Exactly the same problem with girlfriends.
No way to maintain relationships. Still chasing the reason I want to discover.
Home. Car. Clothes. Internet - to find work. Dad and brother are alone, but won't let another man live in their house. Brother now has a new girlfriend.
Wondering what happens when selling my home. I don't want benefits. Don't want payouts / giveouts from the government. Some people want to live that way. They don't want to do a thing called 'work'. It is a very ambiguous term to me. Oohh. Is it hard? Is it unpleasant? I deserve the right to earn my own living. I've loved every job I've done. Will be tough to move down the ladder.
I'd be happy to discuss salary with anyone, and will always disclose all details about what I've done. Nobody wants to. It seems to touch a nerve ~
Not to compare with peers / colleagues in the same place, but always wanted to share our life situation. Only one, closest friend has told me his, recently, while separating from his girlfriend, with all his kit in his small car. Started on a new job after graduating. He left a big hole in his career while I made out at my best, which I think is all plummeting. I can't work out why people don't want me. I think it's because people rejected me on every level and left me as an empty shell with rage and fury boiling over

That's a good idea, be safe!
I've considered doing something similar before when my family gets overwhelming, but social anxiety prevents me.

Andy, if you already have a place then I'm open. This forum allows me to be somewhat anonymous. Moving in with another member of the forum, is a bit uncomfortable. I prefer to discuss this matter privately. Send me a private message.
Ultimately, I want to live alone. But, I may have to live with someone and rebuild my finances.

This post, is a perfect example of my impulsiveness when extremely stressed out. I have a hair trigger fight or flight response that leads to very bad decisions. (of course, the stress level must be EXTREME.....not moderate).
I'm going to stay out of the house as much as possible. Find a good job and move out. That's the most intelligent course of action.

YEP!
I'm seeking perfection forever.
I fly off the handle when interacting with any person I know or don't know, on the phone - an intrusion to test me. Any issue that doesn't meet my strict life laws / rules. I want things my way. Standing up for myself is not easy to avoid.

I think that's a really good idea
I ended kicked out of home pretty much right after I had a complete mental breakdown back when I was a teen.It was horrible but led to me getting my own place and being independent. But here there were organizations and things to support me and help me find and finance accommodation. I'm not sure you would get that help in the states?
So yeah, your idea sounds like an ace plan. It sounds like your home situation could be contributing to your anxiety and problems
I remember what it feels like to be trapped in a situation like that so really am wishing you the best in this.
