Hey, it's me, ertttyty . This is a post to ask for advice, as I'm at a point in my life where I have to make a choice.

But first of all, some context. As you know, I'm a 18-year-old autistic girl, but what you might not know is that I'm currently in Brazil because I had to flee my country due to economic problems (I'm Venezuelan). My father abandoned me before I was born, and my mother is my sole caregiver. She works part-time to support me, and I've always wanted to go to university to become an entertainer. However, we're having trouble paying the rent. If things continue like this, she's going to have to take an 8-hour job, leaving me alone at home. So, I have two options:

1. Get a job to help pay the rent so she doesn't have to work so hard (my mother is 50 years old).

2. Go to university, which means I have to be there for 8 hours a day, but my mother will have to find an 8-hour job, and every time I come home, I'll see her tired and having no time for me

I should clarify that I have no friends and my mother is the most precious thing to me.

What should I do?
