There are places that you can go (often in cities) that will help women who need to get out of a bad situation. These places won't be the Ritz Carlton but they will provide a place to sleep and food so that you can get a job and begin to support yourself.

Have you talked to your Mom and told her that you're clean and sober and need some help getting out of the relationship? Is she willing to help you?

Perhaps a girlfriend who might help you for a while? If push comes to shove, you can continue with your game plan and hopefully be in a position to make some changes in October.

I'm sorry that you've found yourself in this situation. With continued work on your part, things will improve. You like to help people and that's great......but we must always help ourselves first if we are to be of any benefit to anyone else. You can't improve the situation of someone else who doesn't want help, but you can always help yourself.

Take care of you.

gentle hugs
