    Hey Heather.

    So sorry to hear how things are with you. Is there an option to spend some more time with your mum?

    Do you have any support in place? Online or offline?

    What about speaking to the people you share the house with, they may be able to try and offer you some support.

    This isn't your fault, your not to blame for how you are feeling, you just may need some more support.

    I do relate I went through a stage of not feeling like I belonged in my family, but it gets easier. I still isolate myself a lot of the time, but I know my family care even if they don't show it most of the time.

    Sending hugs your way :)

    Please keep posting and let us know how you are doing.

    Hi Heather,
    This is a tough one as it sounds like there's some confusion between the practical issues - the fact you can't live with your mum because she doesn't have space in the house and how this makes you feel - you say you keep thinking about why you're not with your family.

    You've made it clear to us you love your mum, enjoy spending time with her and are 'dead close' with her - this is really positive and not something everyone can say they have, even if they do actually live with their mum. Try to hold onto this as a positive and remember that most people leave home at some point - and having that relationship with her either inside or outside the home is a really beneficial part of your life.

    Secondly, living in cramped conditions can be really tough - especially if people are experiencing stress, so the practical side - living apart, isn't necessarily someone's fault - it could be that it's genuinely best for the family relationships for you to be somewhere with more space.

    Knowing this though doesn't really make it easier for you to settle in a house where you feel unhappy though - I can see it's been really difficult for you to get settled. I wonder if you can do things in the house to make it feel more homely, even if you don't spend a lot of time with the people you live with - what is your bedroom like, have you made it nice and cozy? :)

    Heather, I have just done a quick google search, and this website seems quite good. It's got a few tips on how to live happily in shared accomidation.

    It may apply to you, I am not sure. But it could be worth having a look.
