Am i asking too much?.

Hi. I didn't no where else to ask this in this forum so hope you dont mind me posting this.

I am 37, 38 in January. I have a couple of health issues from kidney transplant to other health issues so i dont work and on benefits. I still live with my parents but this last 3 years ive been wanting my own place and this last 6 month been worst. I have asked my parents for help to see the housing department for help to see if i can get my own place. Instead of helping me and seeing if i can get more benefits for getting my own place my parents give me negatives and say i cant move out and they dont want me to. The negative has nothing to do with money either.

I just want my own space and feel like they are breathing down my neck and checking up on me every 2nd. Also i like it quiet on a night and have to wait until they go to bed as there up till late and watching TV and talking but we live in a small house and noise carries.

I can live on my own as they do go away a lot as both are retired but always thinking they have to come back as they only go for a week and have a couple of weeks be for they go off again.

I no i already claim benefits but am i asking too much if i want my own house or space. This last 6 month or so has been getting me down and just want my own place.

Sorry for spelling and grammar and long post. Thanks.

If your in the uk you need to get on the housing association list and get your parents to write a letter to the council saying that you are putting stress on them and causing them health related stress problems as they can’t cope anymore sounds shitty I know but it worked for me and my girlfriend at the time 7 years ago. The best thing to do would be to speak/see someone from citizens advice and tell them your situation and ask them to help you enrol on the housing list (if your in the uk) best of luck 👍
