Kinkihan, you have had such a hard time. I am so sorry about your father dying and now your mother being so ill. I know you are very frightened. You have taken the first step in asking for help. You must stay strong! I want you to tell yourself everyday (as many times a day as necessary) that you are going to change your life around. I want you to find a job and if you have not yet graduated from highschool, then when you graduate, apply for a school grant (grants do not ever need to be paid back) and go to either a communtiy college or a trade school. This will be the best thing you can do for yourself! Also, find a good church and start attending, then ask if the church offers counseling. Many churches have free counseling for their church members. This will help you tremendously to talk about your problems and the on going need for encouragement to stay drug free, and to keep you from lapsing back into an eating disorder. Also, the church can help you by providing food when needed (free). If you take my advice and apply for a school grant, the grant will be for more if you have living expenses and are not living with a parent. Try and find a room mate. Be sure the room mate is someone you can trust and is not on drugs or drinks all the time. You want someone who works and goes to school. This will help you to set goals and keep them. I know you can do this. You just have to tell yourself that you CAN do this! One last thought. Remember that God keeps all secrets and you can call on Him any time of the day or night. I wish you abundant blessings! Please feel free to email me any time.I need some type of advice for mental exhausting problems.?
I'm very sorry to hear you are dealing with so many stressful situations. Talk to your friends and any other family members about your concerns and maybe one of them can give you more support for now and in the future.


Try to stay strong and when you catch yourself feeling upset or hopeless, do your best to ignore negative thoughts and focus on taking care of yourself before anything else.


If I were in danger of becoming homeless and no one I knew would let me stay w/them, then I'd check paper listings for people looking for roomates. I guess that's what I'd try doing if I were faced with no other alternatives.


Don't let the stress rule your life, I suffer w/constant anxiety over a different problem. Stay busy with your work or hobbies. Good luck.
