The one thing that I want to do more than anything is move out. I know my mom says that isn't an option untill I graduate and get married. But right now I feel like that would give me a break and the time I need to get all of my thoughts worked out. You know? I just don't know how to talk to mom about it. I want her to understand me.

Thank you Katie for what you said, I know now that I'm not alone in the world and that I do have someone to lean on when I need it. I'm actually going to email my pastor today and I sincerely hope he can give me advice.

My parents were getting separate checks from mine, but like I said all of that stopped when I turned 18. I don't think it's that they're hiding it from me, I just think that if they are getting anything, and it would be very little at that, that they are spending it on bills. We have medical bills out the rear end. I'm on a regular medication that I get for free through the health department, but my mom and dad have their own health issues. My mom is on about 5 different medications for her disability, and they cost in total about $75 a month. Dad however is on about 15 different medications for his disability and diabetes. His costs nearly $150 a month. Neither of them can work. So no money is coming in.
I'm not quite sure wehre I would go to find information on what they can get, not to mention that they're stubborn and hard-headed.
