I can’t believe my therapist would make a suggestion if I thought of living in a group home?

Really? Why would I want to live in a group home and have someone else tell me how to live my life? And have restrictions put on me just because I have mental health disabilities? I don’t want to live by restrictive rules. She asked me this if I thought about it wanting to live on my own away from my parents who were giving me trouble about my overdressing and over bundling and being warmly dressed up. I have to learn to take care of myself big time so when my parents die I will not be put into one of those places. I do not want to lose more freedom, independence, or autonomy than I already have. There have to be other options. I need to conquer these diseases and gain energy to tackle life stuff like household maintenance and management and life skills. So I can be independent as possible. That includes doing my own cooking, cleaning , I do laundry. Household shopping and buying. Myself my own personal items. Household maintenance. And management including paying bills, taxes, and navigating insurance. Having an education, career, hobbies/interests/talents/passions/skillsets/aptitudes, volunteering, travel, and socializing with family and friends. I do not want to be monitored by staff in a group home. It’s bad enough I was monitored in a. Psych hospital for two weeks and had no freedom. I don’t. Want my living arrangements. To be like a residential care facility. In a home setting.
