<prompt> Human: Hi everyone, Im 19 years old and I live in NYC. Im looking for advice to move out. I dont have much saved as my parents look for any savings I have and take it. I have a part time job and I make about 1000 mo but I only recently started it. My parents have taken all of my financial aid money so far. After recent events I realized I would have to move out or be forced to marry in my home country and after years of physical and emotional abuse I just want to leave and keep my sanity. Any advice from previous first-time movers? And people that tried to work with Craigslist? Thanks a ton for your time. Assistant: At 19, you can get a bank account on your own, and have your earnings direct-deposited into it. In the meantime, there are resources, governmental and non-profit, that are set up to help young people in your situation. Human: Thank you for responding! Do you happen to have a link or anything I can go to to start searching up these resources?  <response>: Go to the counseling office at your school and find someone who can help you figure this stuff out - they are there to help you.
