Hi @Judi9877 ,
I agree with @Daisydreamer .
With your studies, I'm sure you know about Maslow's hierarchy of needs... shelter is a need.... not a want.
You've come so far in your recovery and although this housing issue may seem like a spanner in the works, consider what you can gain from it.
Thank you for being so honest and open in your post. Do you have any support services you can reach out to? Any links from PARC to help you with finding a place? For example, Salvation Army Services? I know you're in Melb. I wish I noted down some of the services that were mentioned to us when I was at PARC.
Im not sure if you are entitled to gain support from the government whereby they pay your bond?
If you're really stuck, I guess you can phone Housing Victoria to see what services they can link you with. Their number is 1800 825 955. I'm not sure how helpful staying with your sister will be. By all means, if you think you can make it work, go for it!
I wish you the best. I'm here if you need a chat or even if you want space to just vent.
