I don't have a great support group at all. I know they are afraid. I had to end a 4 year relationship because I will not stress out behind b.s. any more. My daughther called the police on me last night because I took her car keys and cell phone away from her. I gave her those items to help me to my doctors appointment. I taking taxis and buses for my appointment or I have to wait around the doctor office for someone pick me up. I just need her for 1 hour a week. When I ask family and friends to take me, I have to wait the day of to see if they can take me. I hate when they say, " Call me if you need help." When I call they can't. I know who is my friend now.
