I’ve lived in my family home for much of the last year, but this has become increasingly difficult due to a breakdown in my relationship with them. I have been sleeping on the living room sofa and have recently started a job where I have to go to work quite early in the morning. It has been really difficult to get enough sleep and be fresh enough give my all.
Looking ahead, I am feeling much more positive with the prospect of living in my own place. In the future, my goals are to own my own car, my own business and my own home. I think I will only get closer to these goals once I get my independence back by moving into my own place. When I move in, I will really feel like I have achieved something and finally have somewhere that I can call mine.
I cannot wait to have some independence and I hope that when I share my story, other people can relate to it and know that even in difficult situations, there are always people who are happy to help.
