<prompt> Human: Canada - 21 years old here. Ive had pretty bad social anxiety and ongoing depression since I was 16-17. Its held me back from getting a part time job to make money all these years. I only have about 900 accumulated over the past few years through birthday gifts and flipping stuff on eBay. My parents are separated. I cant live with mom who went bankrupt, so cant afford to have me live w her. So Ive been living with my dad for the last few years. But hes an absolute cancer, who only worsens my depression social anxiety and makes it even more difficult to get out of. Just an overall shitty, unsupportive parent who stopped caring when I turned 12 it seems. As long as I stay living here, Im going absolutely nowhere. I need to get out and get my own place if I want to get better, but I have no idea what to do because this obviously involves needing money. I dont have any friends whatsoever to stay with, btw.Could I apply for social disability monthly payments? ODSP Ill have to get officially diagnosed Im assuming, and I know my family doctor has been pushing for me to see a psychologist for a while since hes constantly felt something was wrong with me over the years, but I never followed up with the place he referred me to, mostly due to denialshyness about talking about it. I suppose Ill have to now. But... since Im living at my dads, wouldnt they take into account his income, assets, etc. which might make the government decline my application for disability support? Theyd assume he has the money to support me on his own. Even though he wont do it. Plus, Id anticipate moving out if I got the support.Another thing I discussed with my mom is taking some money from my RESP which is about 20k. Although she mentioned there might be some fees, taxes penalties which would significantly reduce that.  <response>: Shifting the blame to shitty parenting isnt going to help you even if that was the case. You need to do something for yourself, either apply for assistance to go back to school and meds for anxiety if its debilitating. Pointing the finger wont get you out of the hole youre in.
