I appreciate your candor humm.I am diagnosed with that scary word "schizophrenia".However I am highly-functioning and have insight into this condition,which can be a blessing as well a curse.My symptoms have changed and improved,and as is well know with schizophrenia things get better when you hit your late 30's early 40's.

Hey guys, I've recently turned 16 and my mum has wanted me out for years now, on the day of my birthday she threw me out but due to legality reasons she was forced to take me back however was told she could get rid of me at the end of the month.... I don't have much of a life here in Scotland anyway no friends and my girl left me about 3 months ago so i excepted my fate and planned to live with my friend in the Netherlands... Just when things looked like they were going to work out i found out my mother had taken £2000 out of my account leaving me with nothing.... I have 7 days left until i have to leave and i need somewhere to go... my life is awful here and I've been searching desperately for a hippy commune like the type you here about in the 70s i just want to live free and be happy for once... some one please help me!!!
Live_Free505, Hi brother, I would try a web search for things like: "Hippie commune Scotland" Here's the stuff that I got from that. http://www.google.com/search?q=Hipp...official&client=firefox-a&hl=en&nfpr=&spell=1 It ain't like the old days. You could spare change and people would actually give you money. The commune that I was in in '73 in S.F. if you could spare change a dollar and chip in the dollar you could have dinner. If you didn't, then you didn't eat that night. In other words, if you don't work then you don't eat. No "live free". That will never happen. If I had $20. in my pocket, I would venture to hitch hike 400 or 500 miles from southern California to Northern California, or the opposite direction. Might take a day and a half. I could buy some sandwich makings, and do some fast food. Even today you can buy a new bottom of the line sleeping bag for about £15 at places like Walmart. You could spare change that and save up that in a week. Are you leaving the house in 7 days???? Go out and getting getting some money everyday, starting tomorrow. And just keep doing that. Plenty of time. My friend. People would still give you rides back then. It's harder to hitch hike today but you can still do it. Just not as fast. Living free is being out of you mum's place. Folks use to make crafts and sell them on the streets of cities for food money. (Having your own GIG) Or play guitar. Most hippies back then would figure out a GIG, as opposed to working for the man. 9 to 5. I say that LIFE is an Adventure. Approach it with that attitude. This one is your Big Adventure. You're on a big trilling adventure. Don't have fear. Just DO IT! Good Luck my friend.

Love you, Fairlight. Have you and she ever jumped on the damn Tube, and met, yet??? Tell me true. I'll mail you the money. Seriously.
Are you talking about me and MamaPeace? Yes we met.We did quite a weird thing for a first meeting actually.You see in London there is a voluntary group called "Sockmob" that meets regularly in central London to give out sandwiches,socks,coffee and moral support to homeless people living on the streets.This is what we did.It was a crazy and rushed meeting but we we all went to the pub afterwards for a quick drink.I think we both had a good time and we may do it again.
