It isn't worth the ridiculous price if you're playing Reload. They also softened up one of the best scenes, and one of the only reasons to play it.

It's basically all dungeon crawling and story dumping except the story isn't that great.

My brothers the wild card. I'm fucking my life over trying to help him. He's so unique in his needs, short of disability, I don't think any kind of government programs will help him. And I find it completely impossible to say no to him because he has scary meltdowns. But he's having them anyway every day.

This is bad. I think this may go on forever. I'm af the end of my rope. What am I supposed to do, he has no one else (everyone hates him as soon as they meet him), but I'm destroying myself, but we've always been together, and he has me wrapped around his finger so to speak

Are there any non-profits in your area that might specialize in what you are going through? I'd look around. I have no idea where you are but if you live near a big city, many cities usually have some resources to look into. You might have to travel but if you are really at this point, you might as well just go for it.
What do you mean by specialize? Are you talking about a long term stay at a facility, some kind of housing or something else?

I also don't know how long of a stay at s facility my insurance will actually pay for.

A mental health facility or something? I'm desperate. I'm at walls that are impossible to overcome because I'm refusing to handle them the proper way out of fear. Every day I'm regretting deeply how I'm handling each situation, because I KNOW I'm making things worse.

I don't think I can do it for much longer. Every week feels like the week everything will fall apart. A week long stay is not enough. I need to get away, now, from everyone as long as I possibly can.

I know I have work to think about, but I may not have a choice at this point. I *know* things are about to go to hell in a handbasket.

I don't have much excuse beyond "my head literally feels like it is missing pieces". Part of the problem is I put things off all night and then do everything I need to do at the last minute, then shit blends together, next thing you know I'm up until 10 am on my off days, and end up oversleeping. The depression has become so crippling, I do almost nothing BUT sleep for the first 8 hours of my day. Just off and on, laying in bed in misery =(

On top of the fact that I can't seem to grow up mentally very much. I am also terrible with finances when I do have money.

My roommate/ex/whatever's cat is getting euthanized Tuesday.

I'm actually getting pretty sad about it myself. I'm going to miss her a lot. She used to be a chonker and always protested with the cutest meows when you picked her up. She no longer does that, and with each day that passes she gets worse and worse. You can almost see her spine now; she has almost no meat on her sides at all at this point. A week ago she would still eat wet cat food like it's candy; now she won't eat it at all. Same with treats.

She was fine a month and a half ago, but in the middle of May she developed a tumor. It was small at first but eventually popped and about two weeks later it turned into a crater. She was taken to the vet twice, and the second time around they said they suspected it was aggressive cancer. So my ex has finally decided to call it. I feel kind of bad that I can't be there to at least support her because I have to work that day.

But god damn this is depressing to watch =( It's literally eating her alive. It only took slightly over a month. Wtf. I could grab pics of her and the cancer and its progression, but I'm not at my phone right now and it's honestly really sad to see.

After hearing all the praise for Trails in the Sky years ago and playing it, it's the game that really made me realize I just don't like JRPGs anymore. Nothing wrong with it, but the gameplay of most JRPGs just isn't enjoyable to me anymore, and it was one of my favorite genres growing up.
The gameplay isn't what makes it good though. It's the incredible narrative, the writing, and the characters.

If you are low income shouldnt you qualify for Medicaid? My son is diagnosed, but he is of course not an adult yet. But every clinic that would do a diagnosis should take Medicaid.

As is, Id get Medicaid but while you have the application in put in your disability application because that takes longer than the Medicaid application which shouldnt take that long and you can be getting on the wait list for whatever clinic you might need to take your brother to for a diagnosis as well.
Oh I have Medicaid, and none of the autism centers I've found accept it.

I think it is set in stone now that we need to relocate -- while still keeping my job. I absolutely have to keep it no matter what's currently going on in my life.

So most of you know my situation by now. I live with my now ex-girlfriend and brother, and this has been the case for 5 and a half years. I am under intense mental duress even with the job. Dangerous, red zone levels of bad. However, we legitimately do not have the time to build ourselves back up, as it were, and then move out. My brother is so despondent he is completely unable to get a job in this environment; even if he lands one, he likely won't be able to keep it because he absolutely fucking HATES work culture, capitalism, anything to do with any of it, how much it affects the world, he hates authority figures etc. On top of that, this environment we are in is tearing us down RAPIDLY. To the point where I have no idea where I will even be this time next year. Major shit happens literally every single week, almost every DAY. I don't think we will last another year over here. But we have very limited options.

So with a low paying job, and my brother unable to work, and me wanting to take him...can I make this work? It has to be possible somehow. There has to be a way out that doesn't involve staying here ANOTHER five years. I think my life might as well be over (figuratively) if I can't get out fast enough. My brother will off himself at the very least. I do not think he's bluffing. Not even a little. He almost went through with it just yesterday.

I'm looking to Craigslist of all places. I found 2 bedrooms someone is offering for $700/mo, or $220/week. I CAN, technically, afford that, but almost literally every penny I have would go into rent (includes utilities and shit). The upside is I will likely have EBT back next week, so that takes care of a big part of the food problem.

What other options are there? FB marketplace? Government assistance programs that might make exceptions for specific situations like this? I still want to take him with me. We also have a cat, but I would try convincing my ex to keep him for awhile until we eventually got a better living space.

There has to be something, somewhere. There just has to be. I refuse to accept that this is where my life is going to stay. And living with family isn't an option; I've already tried. NONE of them have enough room.

We've lived together literally since we were born. 32 years later and he is getting worse and worse and worse. I just don't know how much more I can take.

It's a...reaaaally long story, and I simply don't know what to do. I want him to stick by me through everything, but I'm not getting the support I need. He lashes out about so many things; we had a pretty big fight this afternoon. Common for us now unfortunately.

I've dealt with his emotional issues for forever and they aren't getting any better. They're getting worse. A lot of this has followed us since literal childhood, and I don't have high hopes that it's going to get much better.

At this point, while disability would help the issues a bit, things have gotten so bad that we don't have the time to wait on it. He's actually getting rapidly worse ever since I got a job. We have gotten angry enough at each other that you can see it in our eyes. And this is more common than it ever should be.

This whole thing breaks my heart. My brother has had an absolutely terrible upbringing (I did too, but not nearly as bad). On top of likely being really high on the autism spectrum, his needs are so specific and structured that I cannot afford to keep meeting them. I'm not even sure government assistance would actually give him what he wants.

Separating is the last thing I want to do; it could be his final push to death. But he's going to die anyway if his situation doesn't change. It's gotten really bad and serious. I wish it were as simple as him just getting a job, but unfortunately almost nothing in my life is as straightforward as it sounds on the surface.

I am struggling a lot to move on ever since the breakup. The fact that I have to continue living with her indefinitely makes it so much worse.

And yet it seems she's moving on just fine, which is also frustrating to see. I already had no energy before the breakup, now it's even worse. I just go to work, go home and the only thing I really look forward to is sleeping off my feelings.
