I was approved for 20 weeks unemployment, thank the Good Lord. Now...my next ? is what do I do next? the city i live in is expensive to live in and there is a shortage of jobs in the type of work that i am able to do (clerical, office stuff). i am not stuck in a lease. All that is standing between me and leaving is ME. i am terrified of change. just the thought of making that step renders me paralyzed with fear. if i want to leave, now is the time to do it. But i dont know where to go. I thought about moving back to where my sister lives. I lived there in 2002 and i only stayed 6 weeks because she was horrible. I really have to question the thought of doing that. My friend downstate offered to let me stay with her, but she lives in a very dangerous neighborhood. In fact, the whole city is dangerous. It is def not the same town i grew up in. Im confused.. help?!?

Once again I've had a fever today. I'm not going to the hospital because that's a huge waste of time but I did schedule a dr appointment for Wednesday afternoon.

This will let you try them on for size. You can see what the jobs are like and the cost of housing.
Sound like change is in there wind. Even if you don't move right away consider paring your stuff down and putting some of it in storage.
Sounds like the option of moving in with your sister isn't really an option or your friend in the bad neighborhood.... What about something completely different? Chicago, Atlanta, Salt Lake City, Madison? Research liveable cities.....
You could always move close to either and rent a room on your own... Then you will essentially be on your own... I would do a month to month lease so you aren't locked in to anything and ask for references
Hopefully then there won't be the same problems with personality conflicts..... If you live with someone you know 'you' are then a 'guest' in 'their' home and thus problems can surely arise....xo
