[QUOTE="witzend, post: 159050, member: 99"] I think everyone here understands your frustrations. We have all dreaded our children from time to time. Sometimes for moments, sometimes for months. We speak to you from years of experience. Everyone here will offer sympathy in their own way. Many will offer advice. You sound like you are in a rut and stuck in panic mode. No matter how much advice we give you, we can't get you out of the rut or the panic mode. Only you can do that. We do want to hear from you about how our advice has helped, even if it is only in the way of having a new thought or feeling a little less stressed. We all understand that you have no phone and no job. Many of us have been there. We have been in homeless shelters and domestic abuse shelters. We have lost our children to the state or to other family members. We have taken in grandchildren that our children have abandoned. You are not alone in not having the resources at your fingertips that would be best. From my point of view, you have easy access to the internet and there are resources there that can actually offer real help to you. I hope that you will take some of the advice we have given and run with it. We have a saying here. "If you do what you always did, you'll get what you always got." Try something new. Do a google search. Go to a church or shelter. If all you walk away with is an idea, you've made your life and your son's life better. If push comes to shove, you might consider contacting your family in Ohio and asking if they will assist you in moving back to be with them until you get on your feet. I think you said your boyfriend is on his way out the door. Is there something keeping you in Florida? [/QUOTE]
