Sorry for the late reply, and if I'm being too nosy just let me know
but ...
Too poor to leave? I'm having a hard time imagining this. I left home at 16, with 50 dollars, and worked a to pay for stuff and save for school.
I know it's hardly a good life to work for tuition while trying to keep life balanced alone, but if your experiences are hardly as bad as anything I'd experienced I'd leave and take the financial hardships over the emotional beating any day.
I'm honestly not trying to be hard on you, it just feels to me like you're taking the more difficult road to your destination.
(PS, I also came to Japan with 1000 dollars in my pocket after the plane ticket, no job and no home, things always work out somehow)
