I Hate my mother, i feel trapped.

Im a freshman in college right now. i have been living with my mother and grandparents for the past 17 years of my life and i cant take it anymore. my mother doesnt do a single thing for the family, she is CONVINCED that she is illl (depression) and refuses to go to the outside world and try ANYTHING. My grandparents go to work and support our household completely while my mother uses everything they give and still blames them for her “depression” and disability restraining her from working. Im convinced that shes waiting for me to finish school and then is planning on living off of my earnings after my grandparents are no longer in the picture. She affects my social life as well constantly being home, not giving me any privacy whatsoever. she is home 7 days a week, and that isnt an exaggeration. I dont know what to do because she gets on my nerves to the point where i just want to break walls down.i cant move out anywhere because im not financially able to support myself yet and im not willing on taking out loans and falling into debt.

hey man, thanks for that reply, it makes things look a little brighter than they are. I cant stand not having a social life/ VERY limited social life due to living at home. it might not even be the reason i don’t have a good social life but right now its the only thing i could see as the cause. and as for saying i would buy her a cab? she can walk PERFECTLY fine. She has NO physical disabilities whatsoever but shes convinced that she cant go to work and find a job
