I am Being evicted from the sober house i live in i think its without cause i have 6 days to figure this out before i have to leave.

I'll start out by saying i do pay 300 a month to live here i feel behind and owe a bit but im slowly paying that back and has nothing to do with why i have to leave just wanted you to know if it helps im not staying here for free i give them the 300 a month plus extra whenever i am able. So this all began when I had to leave for a bit and in order to move back in i was told i had to sign a contract which if i didn't follow it i would have to leave.Here is what happened and i don't admit im not wrong too but i've been back here for 3 weeks and am being kicked out for violating 5 things on the contract. Here is my issue on it 3 of the issues are lies they're saying i did things i literally didn't do and i have a guy that supposedly would have told them two of those things and thats gonna back me up that he never told them any of it.

The other one is that i told them i would get set up with the vna for a certain med and i tried to set it up with my case worker the day after i moved back in and i found out the house staff here which this house is affiliated with my drs office, But neither of the staff are trained medically at all and have no right to interfere with meds. My medication was stolen and instead of trying to help me they've done nothing but blame it on me with no evidence or effort to investigate what so ever. I told them i don't abuse my medications and i wouldn't want them if i did as i am trying to stay clean as much as i wanted to find them i got sick of arguing and I reluctantly told them if they weren't gonna help just to forget it. I really do need them to help me function properly and to feel normal but i really don't like drama and i just wanted it to be over with so i could just get back to getting my life in order.

Now they have convinced my primary care Dr to tell my psychiatrist she cant prescribe it and when i found this out and talked to my physic Dr and she said she didn't think it was right and was gonna try and convince her she shouldn't be trying to change it. If not she would help me find a new psychiatrist at another office that could. There's no definite prescriber right now so the vna told me and my case worker they couldn't do anything until we figured out who was gonna do it. (like i said this was the day after I moved in.) I came home and told the staff what happened trying to set up the vna and that i wouldn't know anything til June 3rd when i see my psychiatrist again. What kind of bothers me is knowing that they tried to and in their minds had stopped the medication they still made the vna part of the contract and i signed it not knowing any of that. The only reason i knew they knew is because when i told them what happened they admitted it. When I told them my psychiatrist was gonna try and fight it or help me get it elsewhere they got kind of upset but they said ok and asked if in the meantime they could count what i had and monitor them, and having nothing to hide i said sure so they did.

Now they are trying to say none of that happened and i haven't even tried to contact the vna so im gonna call the vna first and see if they have any record of talking to me and my case worker and or if there's anyway they can send me or verify proof that it happened and explain the situation if needed i'll try to get my case worker to say something but he was there when they said everything and having had to know they were lying didn't say a word.

 The two other things were true but i can justify it.I  was supposed to go to this coffee house meeting twice a week where honestly you do nothing but sit and drink coffee which is fine i don't mind doing it to make them happy. The problem is i have been away long enough that i need catch up on doctor and therapist etc appointments and deal with getting things in order to start moving forward again and be able to survive and be back on my own which i figured the house was aware of as that is ultimately the whole point of staying here. For me to be able to do this it involves going to a few different places that need to be scheduled and soon and they know about all of them. I missed four coffee meetings i to go to get all this done and get back on track and move forward. I can get verification of some kind like notes from all the places i went to prove i was there those days. 

The last problem i missed 3 of 6 AA meetings since I've been back we have meetings here Monday Thursday and Friday. The first meeting i missed was because i got held up at the doctors that like i said before is affiliated with the house and i got delayed for a reason which was important. I didn't get back to the house until it the meeting was over and i can get the doctors office to confirm it. The other two were the the week after on Thursday and Friday. I don't know what happened to cause it whether it was a bug or stress or what but i fell sick to my stomach and was throwing up on Wednesday night and on Thursday i couldn't even get out of bed. It was so bad i had to cancel a doctors appointment which was to get a medicine that if i go without makes me sick.

The doctor wasn't there Friday so i was stuck with nothing until Monday. Not having that and already feeling like death i didn't leave my room until i made an appointment on Monday to get the medicine and that is one of the coffee house meetings i missed.That was this Monday and the other one on Wednesday this week that i missed was because the staff asked me to help the older guy here mulch the yard so i did and now of course hes holding that one against me too. I was given this paper which obviously just listed the five things not anything i wrote here and that i had to leave because of it and my case is basically what i wrote and that i don't think i should be booted out because i had important things i had to do and i was ill. i told them too I'm doing better everyday just give me a chance and I've gone to all the AA meetings  this week and I'm planning on definitely going to the coffee and AA next week. 

I apologize for the length and any grammar issues i don't often write this much and i wanted to post it asap. To anyone who read all of this thank you for caring enough to take the time to help . I just think lying about part of what there claiming and being able to justify to having to meet certain commitments i shouldn't be left homeless with nowhere to go. I am trying my damndest to do everything right to be ready to get out and on my own. I don't know if this would help my case but i volunteer around here every chance i get to help keep the house going and I regularly do all the house laundry and the landscaping weekly. Everyone else only have one chore which is something lime vacuum a hallway sweep kitchen etc. 

 I feel like I'm being wronged in a way and don't know what to do as  i was told i have til the 28th to leave but i want to try and fight this if i can i do not think its right. Please anything at all anyone can tell me would be greatly appreciated and helpful to keep me off the street. I have nothing and no one to turn too. If i can stay I'll be able to continue doing the right thing and actually be able to get my life together an have a chance so if you have any advice that can help me keep my bed please share as much advice or legal rights or anything at all that you can. Thank you for your time from the bottom of my heart.
