Financial Help
Hi. I'm not going to say my name for privacy purposes, but I really need help. I need to get out of the house I am living in. It is a VERY unsafe environment, and it is getting dangerous/weird for both me and my sister.
A bit of context, our mother is abusive and we moved to be with our step dad in CA, so no family is around us. I do not have a car, job, or any other way of making money. I just recently had a birthday so that is a step towards things, but where I am at (with my mental health and such), I need my guardian's permission with a lot of things. It is getting bad. It might not be as crazy as other widely known cases of abuse, though it is enough for cps to get involved.
She is narcissistic and does not think about anyone around her. She just wants to control what we (me and my sister) do because, well, she never got to amount to anything in her life. This may sound mean, but I hate her actions and who she is as a person.
We are in desperate need of help. Advice or any suggestions on what to do, maybe even places to go for help, are greatly appreciated. I wish I could do something about this to get her put away, but I don't have the heart to do that.
We just need to get out of this house until I am able to provide support for us and till I am stabilized enough to take care of my sister.
I don't know if location matters, but I am near Six Flags in Santa Clarita. That is NOT my location, but it is within an hour-ish drive from there.
Anything helps, thanks for taking the time to read this.
