Whenever I start to look in to Independent Living, I tend to get more
depressed.  I wastalking to my best friend yesterday and she said to
stop looking in to Independent Living and let my parents and my social
worker do that.  I am afraid if I do that I'll get put somewhere that I
don't want to be (like Cornerstone).
