Hey guys I'm a 24 year old Econ student that just got accepted into FSU (which will be relevant you'll see), living with my senior father. The last 13 years I have been staying here, and the last 5 I have stayed simply so I could care for him since he is a recovering Alcoholic and Diabetic. Long story short his doc scripted him Valium which I also am prescribed. He got angry last month that I did not feel comfortable sharing mine with him since he was out (its a felony so obviously) and he actually lied to the police and got me arrested for domestic. I don't even get how Valium does this heh. Case got dropped right away thankfully. THEN he baker acted me! Haha. Released as soon as doctor came in, and got a formal letter of my diagnosis which rebuttals his claims, and actually says I should file a police report for false claims made under oath. I won't do that he's my dad you know? But now that he wants me out I am in a big pickle.
I was stupid and let him borrow all my savings so I have no money to live off of, I have no one to stay with! My mother passed away when I was 10 so no family period. I don't know how to be homeless? Maybe my FSU scholarship/grants can help? Is there anyway to protect myself to stay here long enough to get a job again so I can move out without being homeless? I respect his authority and I'm an adult now, so of course I'll leave, but man I don't want to be on the streets!! I need a place to study and continue my schooling. He always promised to pay my bills as long as I stay and care for him/get all A's which I have. I honestly have lost a good chunk of my life caring for him, but I just did as he wished as always. Also he has claimed me as a dependent for years so now that I'm 24 I guess I'm of no use??
If anyone has any advice that I can take legally to protect myself please let me know. Thank you very much!
