I might sound dumb or lazy but at this point I don't care. I am 20 and living at home. I suffer from bipolar with severe depression bouts. 80% of the time I can't function like a normal person. My sleep is erratic and I can rarely find the motivation to do anything. The other 20% I am productive to the point of self destruction. I've never stopped being a kid to my parents and because of that I'm not sure I know how to be an adult. and although they constantly say they understand, they actively work against me (my dad has admitted it). I am not financially independent and I feel if I get a job or go to college I'll crumble. I've head about assisted living and such but I have had horrible experiences in residential before. Does anybody know more about them, what you need to get in one, what's required of you there, and anything else that might help? Thank you all very much, I'm sorry this was long-winded.
