how many people still live with their parents? or homeless or???

Turned 23 on the 2nd and am still living with my parents. Pfft. It really is pathetic. Ah well, totally my own fault for fucking around during exams and not doing well enough to get into Uni (not that that is the answer to all problems - but it's certainly a step up and a good opportunity to become independent). I've got a job, but it pays terribly, so I'm still stuck at home. There are times when it depresses me immensely; usually when my parents express their disappointment and frustration at my lack of ambition. But usually, we get on fairly well and I'm reasonably happy. Although it's totally killed my social/sex life. When everyone made the jump to higher education and moved to different cities, it became hard to remain as close as we used to be. Especially as most people are fickle and go through friends like pairs of socks. The summer was pretty much one of the most boring summers I've had in years. So reclusive. Drugs are totally responsible for perpetuating this situation, as they make the situation bearable. Otherwise boredom may have spurned me on to actually get the fuck out and do something with my life. Although, that's just such a simplistic way of viewing things. I have passions and interests, but it's still not easy applying them to employment when I still feel so inexperienced, stupid, and ignorant about how society works and how I'm meant to fashion a career out for myself. Anxiety and shitty confidence also plays a big part. With that said, I'm not trying to sugar-coat my extreme laziness, that has undoubtedly been the main reason for my situation as of now. It's pretty shameful looking back on how I've wasted my time since hitting my teens.

Regret and guilt...I was warned! Just didn't pay attention.
 
Almost 24 and still living at home. I was out on my own until I lost my scholarship due to never going to class because I was high all the time. When they finally saw my grades they straight up came to get me and all my stuff to bring me home, and I've been here for the past couple years. I do regret all the dumb shit I did a couple years back and would love to be back on my own, but I do have a really good thing going. I get along with my parents very well, and given their fairly good economic status they still pay for my school in full and don't even make me work. They are pretty cool with me smoking weed, but I do have to hide my use of psychedelics from my mom.
 
^sounds just like what my situation was like/is like. Im living clean though but have begin bonding with my dad quite well since ive been back in the house.
 
20 yrs old, recently moved back in with my parents. It gets really fucking boring, but having them around helps me keep my shit together staying focused on work and going to school. i know the second i move back out its guna be a completely different story
 
Well my day tomorrow, go to gas station at 7am dad puts gas in my car, go to the temp office wait to see if anyone wants a legal day labor, if no go to my once a week at a nice old lady's house cleaning job. Every day at the temp agency is starting to suck ass!
 
Hang in there trainwreck, iv never really been kicked out . I'm 22 btw and still live with parents, It has been a shit storm for many years except this one. I finally have a job, am sober, and am busy as hell. I swear all these years i always needed money for drugs but NEVER had any. Now that i don't do drugs i have all this money from work, and i don't really know what to use it on. Just saving atm
 
I still live in the house I grew up. My mom has moved out and my dad got electrocuted so bad a year ago he is disabled and forgets things sometimes so I plan on sticking around. I like the situation. My father is always in his work shop or watching television in his room so I basically have the house to myself.

That would be awesome except for the electrocution part. My uncle in Idaho called me today and said I could come live in his barn, no thanks, he grows many pounds of weed and I would have to trim all that stuff for rent. He pulls a new crop every week. Besides it snows bad there and his tac room only has a space heater. I'm allergic to the flowering plants and the warm lights are too bright to sleep around.

I probably would have said no to that offer as well. He could have offered you a sofa in the house or sleep on the floor with blankets. Doesn't Idaho get pretty cold? To stay in a barn plus tend to his weed plants? :( Fuck that bro. I'm sorry you're still homeless
 
Dude if hes growing, you should take him up on it. The barn cant be that cold if hes got it goin all winter.. i mean, you could do worse..
 
I'm 26 and just moved back home, was out living in another city for just over a year. Things are alright so far, I'm doing my part around the house, and not getting high (as of yet anyway) and plus I'm working part time. I've definitely been worse off.
 
I'm not too far off of 23 years old and I still live at home in my mums garage. It's not an ideal situation but atleast I don't get too lonely and generally get a home cooked dinner at night. I don't really have any immediate plans or means to move out but recognise that I kinda have to sooner rather than later.
 
18 with my parents, would love to quit college and look for a job but my mom would knock me out if I quit. 8(
 
lol. I want in on this tread. 26 and living with my grandma for the fore-see-able future. Unless I'm not actually schizophrenic, and an agent of the illumati is coming to make me rich. I sold my soul for this to happen. Stay easy on the stimulants and DXM guys!
 
I related earlier how our kids live with us. Well, my husband just til me that he missed a few houses payments in the last year and we have to come up with six thousand dollars by October 31 or we lose the house and as a condition of our bankruptcy, we will then lose our cars and everything we own. We will walk away with the clothes on our back. The kids are scrambling to find shelter and we are wondering why life's randomness is holding us down and torturing us.

We we not ever notified that we missed a payment. The bankruptcy lawyers and the mortgage company kept that info to themselves until it was too late for us to do anything about it. The lawyers know quite well how hard we have worked to make sure every bankruptcy payment was on time even though we suffered such a drastic income reduction.

It rains on the just and the unjust. The Lord giveth, and He taketh away. I'm wondering how I will cope with this.

I hope you find a way out of that mess, Ugly. Are there any relatives you can borrow the money from? This seems insane that they can kick you out for missing a few payments. I'm sorry I hope things get better. <3
 
Thank you Babette. I already talk to the parents, they can't afford to help us. There doesn't seem to be any option at this point and that's the maximum in frustration. I would love to be working and I'm not, and I've been looking and have not found anything of substance. I earn enough at a craft fair to make enough money to buy gas to go to my retraining program as a displaced worker. Without a car, my career options shut down.

We are random, faceless, nameless victims of our economy. My husband pays the housepayments with his retirement check and hadn't realized he'd missed any, and we weren't ever notified that we missed any, so now that the mortgage folk and the bankruptcy lawyers have us by the short hairs, they can rape us and take whatever they want.

There's nothing to be done in a situation like this but walk out the front door and just start walking. We don't have anywhere to go. We don't have any way of increasing our income. We are defeated.
 
I had put that Western Sky link in the other thread. But I just realised something because years ago they repo'd my car. Not one phone call, woke up one day and it was gone. When I called the finance company they told me because I had a previous bankruptcy that they couldn't call me. I don't know if that's true or not. Either way it's shitty! What are you supposed to do? I think they are heartless bastards.

My ex-husband did this to me after I moved out with the baby. He stayed in that house 6 months without making a single payment. I didn't know until the process server found me at my new residence to hand me the paperwork. Even though we were separated, we had to file bankruptcy then. He just saved his money like the miser cheap fuck that he is. But the bankruptcy laws have changed a lot since 1999.

I can't imagine having to vacate your home so quickly. I guess if it was me, I'd look into the Indian loan. Even if you don't qualify, maybe your husband or one of the kids would. It would be better than being forced to move and everybody being displaced. It can't hurt to try. We're pulling for you!
