You should also consider bringing a utility knife, a combination lock, and an umbrella, which will help keep you dry if you can’t find shelter right away. To make finding shelter easier, try to reach out to a trusted friend, family member, or another adult for help and support. Once you have your things packed, make your getaway quickly and try doing it as soon as everyone in your house leaves and you know they won’t be back for a few hours. No matter what your plan is, consider calling RUN-AWAY or going to for support that is confidential and non-judgemental. What about if you have no job, no family, no where to go, social services won’t help because I don’t have any children.
Unless you're running from an abusive home, in which case you should call the police, leave a note so your parents don't think you've been abducted. Keep it simple, only stating that you've run away. There are many tools you can use to keep safe, like a rape whistle, pepper spray, or a multi-tool, which can be used both for protection and in emergencies. Keep your tool well hidden but within reach at all times.
What if the desire to leave it all behind is also about seeking safety?
Things have been really bad for the last 3. I finally got my divorce papers filed out. Now, that he knows I’m divorcing him, things are worse. I’m literally sleeping in my van in the driveway.
Sorry to hear that Roger, it’s always sad when a relationship ends and now I myself am going through a break up after 5 yrs. He always controlled the money and our outside interactions with friends and family. Unfortunately this relationship distanced me from my family and any friends. After 5 years I am pretty much alone. I wish you the best and everyone out there that feels all alone. This is the hardest thing that I have ever had to do.
Drake was wrong – new friends.
I have no family to help me and I don’t want to be forced into marriage with the man I’m living with. What should I do, I have no support other than this man I’m dating and he told me that he’s going to force me to marry him for a place to stay. My child isn’t his kid but he wants to be the stepfather and he insists that I marry him even though I don’t love him. I told him I don’t love him and that I just need a place to stay, he doesn’t care he insists that I marry him regardless.
Please get in contact with your Family or friends. There are so many loving and caring people out there. It was a situation that was so horrible that when I related it to a friend of mine she said ” this sounds like something out of a movie”. Nonetheless, I support everyone, whatever decision they make as best for them. You were welcome to stay there free the week you weren’t cargiving and pursue other work etc.

They were offering a room and bath etc free of charge in exchange for cargiving for every other week. I am so sorry that you are having to live in such a sad and stressful situation. He died in your place and itb my place so you can be saved and one day when you die you will be with Him if you accept His plan of Salvation through Jesus Christ. We are not the giver of life and we don’t have the right to end a life not our own life nor anyone else’s. In my area there is a Christian Church that has a couple who rent out rooms to people like yourself. I have an income that wouldn’t even begin to pay to live on my own .
Having no family or a person to help is frightening . Rent prices are so high now and landlords don’t want pets so what do you do it’s mentally tiring thinking about it and searching for ways out. I just read your post, prayers to you and hoping things have improved.
Plan for Best Case, Worst Case Scenarios
I’m halfway across the world and I care about you. I’m trying to leave, I feel so trapped in my relationship. I thought this man was a gift from god but really he’s just the devil.
I have a camp membership that covers many states. I am planning on tent camping until i can afford an rv. Ending a relationship is never easy, but the transition might go smoother if you know exactly why you have to leave. Right now you may feel defensive, confused and even unable to explain why you want to break up. This will help you stay firm about your decision to leave and find the help you need. You may have now where to go right now, but if you can get clear about why you need to get out of the relationship, you increase your chances of getting support.
For example you could have a goal to be in a safe place by Thanksgiving and do something each day to work towards that goal. I am not telling you that these are the answers for you because every situation is unique but, they are food for thought. Now I know that I could have done that and once I arrived I could have gone to DSS for food and medical help until I got a job. Please believe in Jesus and yourself even of you have given up hope on other people.
Instead of leaving them in the dark, tell them where you’re going and when they can expect you to be back. Keep in mind that being out on your own is usually worse as a minor. When you’re found, you will be taken home anyway. Unless things are very bad or even dangerous, find other ways to improve your life at home. Life is very difficult and arduous without the support and guidance of your family, friends, relatives and others who are available for you. Running away from your home isn't a good idea.
Since you have nothing or anyone else you must remember you still have air in your lungs and can still fight for your life God gave you to live. Having the mindset of not being able to do something and fear of the unknown will keep you stuck. You need to just leave and want to leave. Go to woman’s shelter and churches ask for help finding resources. Get you a job and save to get you a home.

It’s possible — but scary and a lot of work — to find ways to get out of a relationship when you have nowhere to go. The worst position to take is “I’m helpless, and I have nowhere to go.” This just reinforces those helpless, powerless feelings. I’m sorry your relationship ended, and you feel like you have nowhere to go. It’s a lonely, lost feeling – I’ve been there.
I am where you are and I came on this site to get support and ideas about how to leave my situation. I am not in the serious or life threatening situations many of your readers will be in, but offer them this most valuable advice. I used to do everything myself, he has rarely helped with anything.
