I'm disabled, so I don't have enough money to rent someplace else, but this apartment I'm in is awful, and the roommates I keep getting are awful and I am just done with it. I am at the end of my mental rope with trying to rent a room (and I'm not even renting a room, I'm renting a livingroom as a bedroom!). I would be super fucking happy if I never had to live with another human ever again. (I've had some decent roommates, but they are few and far in between). I plan on living mostly off-grid on a house boat away from the city and away from people (when I can save up enough that is). I'm working with voc rehab programs and such to help see if I can get a job (hard to get hired with multiple disabilities). How viable are living in storage units (say for the length of a year)? Are there any tips for staying safe as someone who isn't a big burly penis-having individual? Or someone who doesn't have a hard drug addiction and doesn't want to be eaten alive by those who do?
And before you start judging....the roommate who just moved in didn't mention they had kid who will be staying over, until after they moved in (and did I mention they are anti-vaxx?). The current other roommate who is in the process of moving out hasn't done a single chore the entire year she lived here, and trampled feces-covered toilet paper out of her room when she started to move out just 2 days ago and didn't even bother to clean it up (guess who had to do that?). This is just a teensy tiny amount of nonsense I've had to deal with so far from these roommates alone....and these roommates are actually somewhat decent compared to ones I've had in the past. I feel like I am on the verge of a mental breakdown living with other people, I just cannot handle it anymore, I try so hard to make this place look decent and safe, and every roommate I get just shits all over it....literally sometimes.
