I’d take a read through this related question: http://www.funadvice.com/q/moving_out_at_16

There is a person there who answered, and is living on their own at 16, and struggling…it’s not easy at that age to get a job, etc, etc. If you have some other family you can ask for help, that might be the best thing to do. Good luck.
