I suffer from depression (am 48) and have nowhere else to
live. My Mother saves everything and I am humiliated to be living here. I
am isolated and can't take it anymore. She will never change and I
cannot bear to invite anyone inside this house. I've tried to become the
artist that is inside of me but there is no room for me to create. My
Mother is a good soul, but she is killing me.

I have nowhere else to
live. She doesn't understand and every day is a nightmare. I am so alone. I
can't go on like this. I feel so guilty that I need to live at her
house, but I have no choice. The fire department has seen our basement and
said it is unacceptable (normally we would have be fined but I think
because she is a senior they were easy on her). She blamed the mess on
me which was embarrassing.

I am at the point of no return. It's been
twenty years since I've returned home to live with her after my divorce.
The funny thing is I was educated in the arts and interior decoratin
g. I could make this place beautiful so cheaply but she doesn't care.
I am hopeless. There is nothing anyone can do. I've tried everything to
overcome the depression I've suffered most of my life. I wish she
could understand what how horrible I feel to be so isolated. I am so
hopeless and humiliated to be living here. I never answer the door.
