Multiple aspects to comment on...

First. Move. Yes you can get your own place. Find an inexpensive studio. Work a second part time job if you have to. Its your choice to live where you do. Move.

Next. I 100% believe our brains are muscles our inner self controls. Its not always easy, but I control how I feel. Fear is controllable. Anxiety is controllable. You are choosing to be afraid. Choosing to be a victim. Choosing to be intimidated. Work at controlling your emotions. All of us can. Empower yourself.

Take a free self defense class. Watch YouTubes on self defense. Become situationally aware. Do whatever you need to do to become more self confident. Consider getting firearm training. Avoid intimidating situations. Start embracing philosophies such as "Lions not Sheep". Wear empowering slogans on t-shirts. Focus every moment on becoming the strong person you want to be. It will happen. And much faster than you think.

Focus on you. Change everything. Sacrafice. Work hard. You will become the confident person you want to be.

Start today.

Honesty. Be honest. Brutally honest. They may thank you some day. Probably not, but you won't have to listen to their crap anymore.

Surround yourself with people who increase your positive energies. Avoid those who drain your positive energies.
