Long story short my parents are trying to put my boyfriend in jail for an accident because they don't like him. This whole mess has been going on since February and my nerves are completely fried. He should be in jail but we decided to take it to trial, which sometimes feels like we are prolonging the inevitable. We are trying to get money together for a better lawyer, but so far that isn't working. The public defender is an idiot and I don't trust him to keep my boyfriend out of jail. I haven't talked to my mom in a while because of this, which sucks because she is sick and we used to be close. She just won't get it through her head that I'm going to spend my life with my boyfriend, whether she likes it or not. On top of that I decided to quit a good job to go back to nursing school. So I'm completely broke. I just started a new job last week for minimum wage, which isn't going to be able to pay my bills. The job is a lot of responsibility for the money I'm getting (I have to pass meds and care for people). So, I'm nervous about being on my own tomorrow because my training is over. I left for a couple days to visit family and get away from this nightmare but I can't relax and my head is spinning with stress. All my friends have their own problems, so I hate to always be talking to them about it. Let's face it, not much they say can help. It won't change anything. I'd go to a therapist but along with being broke I have no health insurance. Everything is just such a mess. I'm trying to stay strong for my boyfriend but I don't know how much longer I can keep up this front. :/
