Damn it...I got kicked out again...damn it

[Jack Daniels]

Its all ok now, I living "on" campus, in my car. That way I can still attend classes, and have internet, and save the little money I have left. And since I have a parking sticker, they wont toll my "house"(car), but yeah. I appericate the ones who didnt doubt me cause hell when you just get kicked out, come to a support site, and hear people just...I dont even know...my parents and I are done though, and now Ill talk lookin for either a shelter, and/or food.

[Laura91]

Take care of yourself, Jack, I hope that you can find a proper place to go soon. 

[Constance]

Take care of yourself, Jack. It never ceases to amaze me what some parents will do to their kids. They give "parents" a bad name.

[Adam]

That rather sucks. It's to bad that everyone can't have parents like mine. While I maybe not always love them, they are really supportive.

Hope you fine a place to stay.

Okay, jack here is what you do. Type in Zen alcohol stoves in google and read how to make an alcohol stove for less the a dollar. Get a pot from somewhere. Go to the local foodbank and explain your situation. Your school should have that info. Housing I can run with after something I need to do first. Any ways take care.

i can't think of any words to say. but you have my support.

[Jack Daniels]

I really need a job,(and I have no experience), but a guy called me yesterday about an interview! Finally, just when I almost reached a point of suicide. Anyways, it conflicts with my school hours, so Im thinking about dropping out. Im still going to look for a "real" place to live, but even then I would need this job, though. Im uncertain as what to do since this is just an interview, and if I dont get the job and waste all that money trying to get it, but at the same time I can look for a job full time, maybe a couple so I can rent an apartment. It just sucks cause I cant take showers and I have a limited number of clothes

[Jay]

So, wait...what is everyone ganging up on Jack for? Just curious...

Yeah man this is a support site. I think its wrong some of you to gang up on people. Like what SarahR she has it down to a T.

Im sorry to hear your parents have kicked you out again dude. Update us on whats happening man. Stay safe.. its a jungle out there! *hug*

[PolarBear]

Hey Jack,

I'm very sorry to hear about your situation. I can't offer wise advice, since I've never been homeless before. If at all possible, it would be best if you could stay in school, since education is a very powerful thing to have. Of course, education takes a back seat to basic things like food and shelter.

Take care, and stay safe.

If you quit school for now, don't just drop out. See if you can get a leave of absence or a temporary withdrawal. Talk to an academic counselor and see what can be done.

If your school has a gym/fitness center on campus maybe you could take showers there? No one would bug you.
On campus jobs are a lot easier to maintain in school too, they're a lot more flexible and willing to work with you.

[Constance]

Like PolarBear, I've never been homeless so I don't have any pointers. I hope everything will work out for you as soon as possible.

If you can avoid dropping out, avoid it. The education will definitely help. But, I do know from experience of moving out young that sometimes education has to wait.

Stay sane.

Sorry to hear your plight JD 

We have a local YMCA where I live (one of my mates works there) which take in 16-25 year olds that have been made homeless or kicked out by their parents. They give them their own room, they have a games room and they also give them help and support in finding work or college etc. Do they have places like this in the U.S.?

[Andrew]

Damn, wow. If you were anywhere in New England I'd take you in. Look in alternative papers/employment classifieds/the internet to see if you can find youth shelters or whatnot. Do you have friends who'd let you stay in their dorms? If your school's got any sort of GLBT center/club/whatever, someone there will probably have info about GLBT-friendly social services. Anyway, I hope you get back on your feet soon. Don't drop out -- school's going to make a huge difference in your future employment.

[Jack Daniels]

I apperciate all the advice, right now Im lookin into GLBT places and jobs in Dallas. But livin in a car isnt so bad...at night time. Cause in Texas, man, it is hot. God, thats the worst part about everything, the heat! And its drivin me mad.

And to think this whole thing started because my little sister was talkin to my dad, and referred to me as Jack! But I never even told her to call me that, she must of heard someone else, but still...my dad is crazy

I think I lost 10 pounds in like 3-4 days, but still school is pretty easy, I hate how they expect you to attend classes and take role, (especially when the class is super easy like calculas. My high school calculas teacher was way better than this college one, and plus I got a 100 in high scool calculas so I hate how I have to freakin attend  that boring easy class, among with the others.)

Although I still havent showered, AXE goes a long way, and it keeps me smelling somewhat good. Besides when people ask where I live, I can tell them its a super vasty huge house(referring to the school).

Haha I don't know whether to call you a smart ass or congratulate you on looking on the bright side of things That last line made me smile, manipulating the truth like that... Keep your head up man, things can only get better from here.
