I have Aspergers, and will be homeless in seven weeks. Help me please.

Your landlord has absolutely no legal right to evict you in 7 days.

I'm sorry you lost your mother Liam. I lost my mum in Dec 2022; she was 82 and it was expected but it's still hard and I will always miss her. I know she wouldn't want me with her yet though, and nor would yours.
Life has a funny way Liam of things working out. I don't know how old you are (I'm 62 ๐๐คจ) but I've had my fair share of very difficult times and can remember thinking at those times, this is it, can't see a way how things are going to change for the better. Then they do. And I can look back to certain crises I've had and just think wow, who'd have thought things would have changed for the better, which they did, many times.
You will have an inner strength Liam that maybe you didn't know you had. That's part of the human condition - we fight, strive and we learn and grow - almost whether we want to or not. And you're not alone, despite what you feel at times. You'll find help from surprising places I'll bet - look, you've even had that possible offer in the pet shop for Basil, and your landlord is giving some leeway because he knows who you are - the good caring person that you've shown yourself to be.
Keep your head up Liam. What you're going through now is not your fault and you'll get through it. Might be a bit of a rocky, uncertain path at times but I envisage you sitting on a settee with Basil next to you in your new home. Keep your head, keep hope and keep strong. We're here for you and we care ๐ซ.

Thank You so much. I got in touch with Autism initiative, who set up a meeting with me for next week. They'll help me get housing I think. They can't house me but still.

Oh that's really good Liam ๐. Thanks for updating us I am very pleased that's a really good move. I hope you can have some relaxing time over the weekend, gathering your strength for next week too. Take good care ๐.

My landlord will be in cleaning more so I doubt I'll relax but thank you so much. I feel numb.

He's clearing the house for the next week. I have nowhere private to go. I may just go out all day and sit in the park.
