Is this it?

It's hit the fan between my dad and I big time. HE has army level fitness and is unstable and I am not safe living here.

I'm about to become homeless. I don't know what to do. I don't feel safe anywhere. I have terrible anxiety and don't understand people.

I can't see myself living in a homeless hostel. I also don't want to live in the town I live in anymore. But don't know anywhere else that's worth going to either.

Maybe it's time to finish it all?

  • I didn't realise how important a safe space was until mine was taken away.

    I suggest you find a temporary safe space away from your father - hopefully this will reduce your anxiety and allow you to make better decisions.

    A homeless hostel is probably not the only option, but even if it is, you don't have to live there - just use it as a short-term respite while you find something more suitable.

    In my experience the Samaritans (free call 116 123 or google) are very good at providing a friendly ear and signposting you to services that can help.

    Alternatively you could google:

    nhs getting help for domestic violence

    The above NHS page gives info on what domestic violence is (for any gender), and several options on services you can call for help.

    Be strong.
