Are parents supposed to make you miserable? (read description)
I was debating on asking this but I need honest answers. I live with my parents, I'm 20 years old and it's only been a short period since I've moved in from my first year of living on campus. Since I have been here they have been making my life a living hell. I can't do anything without them yelling, criticizing, insulting, patronizing and so forth. They say I'm ungrateful and taking life for granted. That I'm being rude towards them. They do this because they like to guilt me. To make me feel bad. I was writing an essay for a scholarship and didn't put the dishes away and they went nuts, my dad said that I'm taking life for granted. Ever since I came back, it's like it's one thing after another. They hang up on me like they're making up for the time I was away... I was close to breaking down on Tuesday. I cleaned my room and my mom decided to throw my stuff around for fun and said I needed to clean it up.
I'm miserable. I try and try to make them stop but then they find something else to yell about. I suffer from depression and anxiety, and it's gotten worse since I've come back home. I love them, but they're emotionally abusive and it's killing me to the point where I actually want to run away. I'm going to reach my breaking point by the end of this summer, but I can't leave. I don't have the money for it. Part of me thinks it's because they're stressed about money so they take it out on me... I don't know what to do... 😕
