<prompt> Human: Here is my original post: Someone was kind enough to point me to another post that had lots of helpful information and I received many supportive private messages. Yesterday the police came to my apartment. My parents had both separately tried to apply for welfare using my identity since I am 18 and an adult now, even though I dont live with either of them anymore. I had gotten a credit freeze and a new social security number so their deceptions were caught. The police just wanted to ask me some questions and confirm I had moved away and didnt apply for welfare. They have BOTH been arrested and charged. Between this and getting an A on my first exam at night school its been a very good week. Thank-you again for the help and supportive messages everyone.  <response>: Dont give up on college just yet. I didnt start college until I was 27. I first had to get my horrible family out of my life so I could concentrate on my studies.Consider posting this on rraisedbynarcissists. Youll get a lot of good advice over there, too.
