Ok starting off i was about 11, living with my mum and brother like a happy family
My brother ended up leaving home and breaking contact with me and my mother because his gf didnt like us and since my brother was my world that broke my heart.
i changed from a kid that wanted to snuggle up everynight to a kid that skated around the west end at midnight. i was a bit suicidal but never showed it i never do. At about 14 i went shoplifting with some friends and got caught. shouldnt have done i know. the police did sweet mess all be social services did. for nearly a year they was coming to my house and even pu ting pure lies in their report. in the end my lawyer told me and my mother to go and live in spain till i turn 18 if we wanted to stay together so we left eveeything behind and here i am in spain, so there we were with no money in a foreign country with no knowledge of the language.(i speak fluent spanish now) , we met a guy that spoke english and helped us out a bit but he was a exconvict,psychotic stalker who tried to hurt her. in the end we ended up going to live with some gypsys that offered to take care of us and we was there for 8 months, unfortanetly he also was an ex convict (just come out of prison and as we slowly discovered bit by bit while we was with him he was in for 20 years and killed 3 men inside) who nearly killed her and fractured 3 ribs then when theyd healed fractured 3 more then at 5 am on the 1/1/12 broke 7 ribs. As there is no work here we are basically screwed. A good friend in england gave us 20k to buy a flat so we did but he's dead now.My mum gets 400€ a month from the government as a payment they give to victims of gender violence. We run out of that soon. My job is commision based and i earn like 20 bucks a week.
Theres no help for people in need here. Im very depressed. Im really really depressed.....
just to get it into words

The thing is you have nothing to lose, you should be fearless.
I have heard that the economy is bad in Spain, why not travel to another EU country to find work?
I have a friend who comes from Vietnam, he started off with nothing and he will move to wherever there is work leaving his family and GF behind. His hard work has paid off and can support himself and his family.
Another friend was sleeping on people's couch for months, he then worked in a call centre, it took a while but he figured out what he wanted to do and now works in a top law firm in London.
Many people get into that situation, they didn't give up and neither should you. I know you are struggling for the basics but never stop dreaming big, if you know what you want in life you will find a way to get there. It does take time, but one step at a time.
Your mother has lost your brother already, don't let her lose you too. Be strong and stay positive x
