I don't know what to think.

• For starters I'm going to ask the readers and writers of this forum to not make fun or ridiculize my personal life. I'm swiss since birth. My family is swiss. My great grandparents were swiss. My great great great great great grandparents are... you guessed it... swiss too. I had some sort of bad luck and ended in the so called Betreibungen. I lost the place where I was living. I have about 45'000 swiss francs in debts. I lost my job over a year now because the company went broke. The time I spent with the RAV, I spent it searching for a job. Currently I am searching for a place to live and I can't find anything. I saw about 150 apartments in the past month yet all were declined telling me that a person with Betreibungen is a risk way too high and they can't afford to have that kind of person. My last resort was the Sozialamt. Their standard precedure is to give you a "Kostengutsprache" for the rent and extra costs of a cheap apparment in the city you are in. Even with them and assurance that the rent will be paid, I still can't find a place to live and from what I'm beign told, ending september I will have to share a room with 4 other unknown persons at the Heilsarmee. Even the Sozialamt is not able to find a place for me to live. During today's meeting with the social worker that was assigned to me, I was asked to consider leaving switzerland and venture myself to other places. I was shocked that someone was asking a swiss to leave switzerland. I don't want to leave switzerland, afterall this is where I grew up and where I have my small friend group (2 close friends). I don't know where to turn to. Seems that the worst reason of all is that I'm 29 years old. I'm male and single. I've never consumed drugs, never liked the idea of having a distorted reality (insert some ideologist, principles speech here that tells you why not to use drugs). I don't drink either, I have respect from alcohol (insert another speech like the one you added before, just do it about alcohol). I never learned a proper job or finished any kind of superior education (life sometimes doesn't give you a choice and you must move on to the next stage). Is this the reason I'm not beign helped properly? I need a job and can't find it, I need a place to stay and I got no shelter. Happy endings like the ones you see in the movies don't happen. What are my options, how can I go forward? What's the action to take? All this answers leave me sleepless at nights. Am I forced to leave the country? Am I forced to be placed on the same kind of situation as someone who has a drug or alcohol problem? At least a person with drug problems gets attention, a person with alcohol problems gets the right attention too. What about young men that are single? I've seen persons here telling about their experiences in switzerland. Some tell about bad things the country has, even going to some extreme extent or stories. Some tell about the good things the country has, defending their country with everything thei got. I ask both groups: What should a person in my situation do? Nothing is free in life, nothing will be free in life. But at least, I hope, humanity will show a way for me to continue living as a human.
  
  Thank you for your time and I hope someone in this forum can tell me what to do, how to do it and where to go. Specially when the "right" authorities are not able to help me anymore or in a proper way to continue living as a swiss in switzerland.
