I am a 21 male and about to be homeless pls help?

Hey, my name is Brian and I was just laid off from work i currently live with my mother and step dad and was about to start college in January but now that i have lost my job my step father is persuading my mother to kick me out of the house i am just under too much stress. I have been vigorously looking for a job with no luck. If i am kicked out which i believe i will be and soon what can i do about this i do not want to live on the street. I am from the Philadelphia area (willow grove) and frankly it would be a gift and a curse to get kicked out but i just do not know how to start my life without the support of others. I want to be able to make it on my own and even living in this house i am surely going to die from the stresses that i shouldnt be receiving. I am fairly intelligent. I just need a job to save money and a temp place to live so i can save up and move far far away from the problems i face here which shouldnt be my problems. I am just so confused how can i change everything about my life and make it on my own? please help

    Fast cash can be made waiting tables or bartending. That way you will have enough money to get at least a pay by the week motel with a kitchen unit in it. This may not seem like it to you now but it is a good thing. Sometimes we have to hit bottom before we rise up and take the bull by the horns. Life is only as good or as bad as we let it get. Also you could go to one of those work today paid today places. Check with your local employment office for more info. in your area. Best of Luck to you. Hope this will help.

    First off, take any job offer that comes your way. Even if you think you deserve better. Get with some friends or take and ad out and see about sharing the rent on some place so it will be cheaper. You are 21 years old and it really is time to get out on your own. Good luck

    Call the local churches, sober living homes and as a last resort the missions.

    Get enough $ to open a PO Box so you have a mailing address and keep your cell # active.

    Pound the streets and work anything...save everything and rise up.
