1 Name: A r i : 2018-07-11 10:57 ID:WapbMwoA [Del]

Okay so my life isnt really going well for me. I had to start the pill and gained weight, even though i graduated with straight A's my parents arent sending me to university and I had to break up with my 4 year boyfriend because my parents randomly decided to move out of the damn country and we ended up moving out of the city only and he thought i lied to leave him because of how damn spontaneous my parents are. I ended up liking someone here too and he moved out of country so im banging my head on the wall. My mother also never lets me go out even though Im 18 and then she yells at me for being "too depressed" and that im "only 18 and should cheer up". Now guys. Tell me. How am i supposed to cheer up when I cant go to uni, the love of my life left me, and I am not allowed to work since i am not allowed to goddamn go outside. Please dollars... what the hell do i do other than a) kill myself b) run away (since i have 0 money and nowhere to go) Thanks!

I would recommend sitting down with your mother and father and talking to them seriously. It may help better to write them a letter if they are the overbearing interrupting type.

>>2 hey thanks for the advice :) but uhm they are the types who never listen and my mother kinda "rules" my dad. My father lets me be free but my mom is the strict one and my father does whatever she says and uhm my mom doesnt really fancy me. I tried many times and i really dont know what to do.

Because you are 18, you should be able to apply for your own grants and scholarships. There is a lot of money to be had there to help fund a higher level education that goes unclaimed because nobody really knows enough about it, or at least there is in the US. I'm guessing by how you call it University rather than college that you don't live in the US, but its possible that it still applies. If it does, I'd grab up as much as that money as I could and fund my own way though whatever college would accept me, even if it had to be online to begin with.

As for your parents, Personally, I would have a one on one conversation with your father first and see if you can get his support before bringing the conversation to your mother. Maybe with the added support of your father you can bring a stronger case to your mother, greatly increasing your chances of changing your mothers mind.

I wish you the best of luck. I will be checking on this thread periodically to see if there is any progress.

Cheers

>>4 hey thank you for the advice and uhm yeah im not from US and my country doesnt really have an option like that sadly. I cant properly apply to unis because i studied in a british school and i have a british diploma but the country im currently in doesnt really accept that diploma. And its very hard to find a job with just a highschool diploma and i really dont know what to do about that. Uhm my father I tried talking to him but he always finds excuses and supports my mom because he cheated on her once and my mom almost killed him so he has to listen everything she says so his marriage wont fall apart. So im just here sitting not doing anything. I asked to go outside to a cafe in front of my house today and my mom yelled and said no for no goddamn reason so im not doing anything at all. Im just lying down staring at the ceiling not doing anything just... sitting and staring. I also cant draw or be productive since i have 0 motivation and 0 happiness so im in this mentally exhausted state that doesnt allow me to do anything. Just lie down occasionally cry take a nap and lie down. Thank you for the good wishes by the way i really appreciate it :)
