I am currently living in Richmond VA. Very soon I will have no stable place to live. This is my defination of hell. I don't know where to go or what to do. I have no real life friends. No family that will take me in. I'm on the verge of giving up and letting go of life altogether.

So if there is anything anyone can do to help me out I'd appriciate it. I don't have a lot of money, enough to carry me away on Greyhound and provide me food for about two weeks but nothing else.

I hate my life. I repeat, I hate my life.

What happened to staying at the shelter?

Do you have any siblings or grandparents?

I live in Washington DC. I'm pretty sure you'd be able to find a job here. Also, you'd probably be able to get a place to stay.

Getting a job, especially in a new place, is nearly impossible for us. People can't tolerate our "in between-ness" whereas there is programs and sympathy for "ret*ds" and most all employers want normal persons but us Aspies fall in between and no one can understand.

Neither can landlords. I'm going through 3 years of homelessness off and on with shelters rejecting me for 'not being cooperative' and being disabled.

Just a not to people replying, it's the way things are so ALTERNATIVES have to be found. The normal stuff just doesn't work.

My name is also Randy. I am sure there is something you can do. There probably is grunt work that nobody else would do. I found busing tables and washing dishes, janitoral work. Hopefully your boss will not be an ass like mine was. He trigger my truama and I lost and 8 dollar per hour job part time. Most of the day I was vaccuming the store. I am pretty sure you are eligible for ssi. As for ret*d there is someone who is more disabled than you. There is free things you can do to controll depression. No white bread fiberless carbohydrates spur high blood glucose level followed by a fall. Low blood glucose is depressing. Simple postive visualization exercises also help. I like to imagine a feather is tickling my back. With great focus you will be happy. Don't you think you could do anything if you had a message? Take a step further imagine its a girl doing it too you.

You must get a job. I probably going to need one too even if I am not ready for it. I might go nuts and fail but I guess its too bad. Yeah I am getting punished becaused people are noisey in my buisness. My sister and mom were reading my stuff on here. I hope my sister suffers. Do herself in. I just lost my other job because I had a vunerable moment. Apparently I am not allowed to say anything. That right sister get mad at me cause I said something suicidal agravate push me see how much I can take. It does not matter about my fealings as long as you have a babysitter. If this is how she thinks she is surely doing herself in. Cry first but than push me she is definitely ret*d. Randy does that sound ret*d? I will bet you have more fealing then her. More than my mom, yell at me cause I said such things, cause she can not handle it. Randy does that sound ret*d? The second one is bipolar. Both push me see how much more I can take. Randy does that sound ret*d? What an odd way to make some feal better.
