    Welcome to the community @Autism_at_40 :) I can see that you've been finding your way around the community already, which is great!

    Hello @Tori_Scope,
    Well, I struggle to get up. I feel like I need more sleep than usual which is normally 8+ hours.

    I've been trying to work out what to do, storage quotes, and when I finally pushed myself to get up, I've had to start packing.. 3 days left....

    Not easy when I feel so comfortable here and I'm having to just eat snacks as I've been banned from cooking...

    Who's banned you from cooking @autism_at_40?

    I hope that you managed to get a good night of sleep last night :)

    My sister has banned me from cooking in the flat.
    Last hot meal I had was thursday when I bought KFC.. not exactly healthy.
    I'm not sleeping well at all...

    Well, shes annoyed at me cos I didnt give her my cos of living payments (I was saving them for bond, rent, furniture, moving costs etc).  So she said until i give her money I'm not allowed to cook.
    She also is withholding the belongings of mine she put in storage. Citizens advice say she cant do that, but i know she'll blow a gasket if i tell her that.. 
    I really need help 😥
