Because some of us with chronic pain don't look disabled we can be judged for not working. I've had that happen. Do you get disability?If you do you can apply for low income housing so you don't have to live with your parents. That would take some of your stress away. Good luck

Hello there...well..we are al bonded thru pain here..thats my nick...well..sorry to hear you are in that predicament..but..see it on the positive sight...family should always be welcomed when you are in pain and disabled...your parents should be supportive and help you around the house..and also they should assist you whenever you cant...so..i feel parents are a blessing.or family..when you suffer from these ailments...you never feel alone...you have someone that helps you...they are  helpful raising your children...they help you financially because some dont ask for any rent..etc...so i see them as a positive addition when you live with them...as long as they and you keep your boundaries and respect each other..this is a very useful circle of support for someone that suffers from pain and fatigue....

 

hopefully, your parents are very helpful and good to you and your child....

 

If not..then..its time to go and live on your own..their are many agencies out there that can help you thru this...

 

ANyway....take care...
