I’m 24 and I recently got kicked out, me and my roommates spoke and they want me out by the august. I first wanted to stat with how we got here, around 2 years I would move in my roommate K and her wife Z, things were overall going well but it became clear I was neglected as a kid, and chores were not my strong suite. I could do them but not very well. eventually K got another partner F and between the three it became rarer and rarer for people to depend on me for chores. I felt bad but admittedly did not whole a lot to handle it. K would start to get really upset with me and It spawned fears I would get kicked out to the point where I would have long periods of depression, eventually we would move to Nola, and things only got worse from there, I told K I wanted to as go to therapy but K said she did not believe I was going to get better and that I am focusing way to much on clinician diagnosis and I could of just googled autism hacks or adhd chore hacks and that I was being terrible cause I wanted to be terrible, I overall got a point where I would constantly self deprecate as K would really only be mean to me and we would fight non stop every single day, I was never invited to do anything, and my life sucked. I got the the point where I started to dissociate and it got to a point where I could not function at work, my depression was severe and I would mostly sleep during the day, I finally did get into therapy and on some good meds but it was too late, one week ago I was informed due to my actions I am getting kicked out, while I was offered a couch in Shreveport to sleep on, and maybe a roommate situation I was still very upset. I am at the point where I feel like I lost everything that matters to me, I did not want to go back to Shreveport and I feel absolutely devastated. I applied for jobs in Seattle, and Denver but I have not even gotten a call for interview yet, and I honestly lost hope. I just don’t know, how does one rebuild from nothing, like I dont have a job, friends, family really anything. I have a car that everything I own fits into thats it. What do I do now??

If you do end up living in or around your car for any period, check out that channel. There are plenty of videos that you can use for inspiration and there are many video links for the necessities. It can be quite dignified to live this way.
I wish I had any answers or advice for you beyond this. I know how tough and unforgiving the job market is.

I wish I had an answer but never lived through this.
All I can do is to wish you luck and I hope you can find people who can help you.
This is why so many of us are homeless. If it weren’t for my family I would have been on the street decades ago. I wish I had some good advice but I don’t. If you have combo ADHD and autism like I do, none of those hacks will work. It only gets harder with age. I’m 43 now and I can’t function at all. I’m being forced to confront my severe rejection sensitivity and seek treatment now. Don’t be me. Get on medication now because it’s going to be your only option at some point. Don’t wait until you push everyone away. Advocate for yourself, if doctors won’t listen, find one that will. Medication is more important than employment though they go hand in hand. There is a path out of the dark, you just need to find it.
