Right so im having a couple issues let me explain my backstory a bit. since i was born i have lived with my grandparents, my mom was doing drugs and didn't want me, and my dad was in prison for murder or something. one issue with what happened was my birth parents never actually gave me up, so my grandparents are not my guardians. we never had any issues though because i do have the last name of my grandparents so nobody really questioned it. once i turned 16 i applied for a trade school because my grandparents just could not afford me and in January of 2017 i flew out to the trade school, i stayed there for just about a year, the quality of life there was crap, and i mean really bad. they had mold in the rooms that they kept saying they would fix, the staff loved to power trip and make everyone's lives miserable because they didn't get paid enough and a lot of other issues, so i decided to leave. i couldn't stay with my parents or grandparents because they didn't have any money. so i asked my step aunt/uncle that were in another state (Las Vegas Nevada) if i could stay there, they said yes for $500 rent once i get a job. now i got a part time job thanks to my local church here, and am making 8.25 an hour up to 20 hours, so around $600 a month give or take. however i have to share a room with my cousin, shes a mess, hoarder, doesn't clean etc so its pretty bad here and on top of that, no doctors here will see me because i don't have a guardian here. and my mom is in and out of jail and right now we have no clue where she is, we assume in Washington getting high somewhere, so i don't know what to do there. my step aunt/uncle no longer have jobs so they are going to kick me out, i have no type of vehicle, nowhere to stay, etc, what should i do? is there any type of government aid i can get to help me get an apartment? or a place to stay? there are some pretty cheap apartments in vegas $300-400 a month, but im not sure how to go about doing any of that, and same with medical. sorry this is a little disorganized, im really worried and unsure what to do in this situation. i have 6 months until i turn 18. also I do have my diploma, however the trade school i went to gave me the answers to everything so im really at a 5th grade-6th grade level. and medical wise im not doing amazing. i was taking trazadone for my depression/chronic migraines and sleeping, as well as Adderal for adhd, but doctors wont see me so i cant get refills atm even though i have medicaid. sorry this post is a mess. also unsure if this was the best place to post it, i dont use reddit all that much. just need someone to help guide me on where i should go and what i should do in this situation.
