This has been a long time in the making, I am in a very difficult relationship where if I leave I have no place to live. I am trying to get my mum to help me but she won't, I still love the guy but he wants to end it too I think.
I am in the process of screaming, crying, wanting to hurt myself, EVERYTHING. I come here as a last resort.
There are no agencys prepaired to help me as I am not a learning disability case, nor am I mental health (yet) and that my IQ is too high. I don't want to hurt myself but it might be the only way to get help. I can't even think straight.

i dont know if you are female or not but there are places like womens refuges that may be able to accomade you for a short time while you look for somewhere else . if you have no income or are on benifits try going to your local council or housing association they often have emergency accomadation for people in similar situations to yourself. you can also try and get an appointment with welfare rights advisor in your area. also you must go to see your doctor and see if there is something he can give you to calm you down and stop you from hurting yourself , your mental health is of primary importance but i know how your actual practical situation and your mental health directly impact on one another until you become in a cycle whereby you cannot rectify your practical problems because you are too depressed , anxious etc to think clearly and make plans to help you sort out the practicalaties.
Good luck and i hope things start to improve for you soon.

It sounds like he cares about you at least some.

Can you talk with him about transitioning out of the current situation instead of being left on the street?

Nope, it's all or nothing. I love him and I am going to try to make it work, but I spoke to my mum for 1 and a half hours tonight and she said she would not allow me to go home and she woudl let me live on the streets.
