I’m a sixteen year old girl living in Virginia.
Two months from now I’m turning 17. And I want to leave my house. Problem is, my mom over asserts her power and I have no clue how to move out. I feel so useless and the more we fight the worse her words get. Not cussing, thats not what I mean. I mean things like “I’ve given up on you.” “I’m done with your ********.” “I’m so numb to you, I don’t even want to talk to you.” “If you don;t straighten up I’m sending you away.” She blew up on me when she found out I started a bank account, she liked knowing how much money I had, how much I was spending, and flip if too much was spent. She would cash my paychecks in through her account. It was ridiculous.She took away my phone, so I was being responsible and I bought myself a cellphone. she doesnt know i have it, but she said if she found out i bought one, she’d take it away, even though I paid it wuitht the money I work so hard for. Because, she figures, everything I own and buy is essentially hers until I’m 18. She’s mad with power, and she loves to tell me all the time how even though sdhes done with me and shes sick of my **** and she doesn’t want to talk to me, how im disgusting and manipulative and she basically cant stand me, she puts me on restriction. and she says she only does that to legally save her own ***.
I dont want to hear about talking things through with her, because shes so **** hard headed nothing gets through. I tried telling her I have really bad depression and I get bad anxiety attacks, and she told me to suck it up. Then turns arounsd and is the best mother possible to my brother. Im not perfect, and I have ****** up. But it’s not legal trouble, ive never been arrested, and I;’ve only gotten in trouble once for leaving school ten minutes early. my moms found beer in my room, and I admitted that I had a big pill popping problem and that I was getting over it,. I was a little more sexually active than she liked, but I’m abstinent now. I;m very proud at how far along ive come. But she shoves the fact that Im this horrible child down my throat 24/7. I try so hard. It’s like, whats the point? How the hell do I get out of this sirtuation? I feel so terrible whenever I step foot into this house. I dont know what to do.
Dont tell me to suck it up, dont tell me to talk it out. i want affirmative action plans, not counseling sessions. Shes too cheap to afford a counselor for me, along for anything else.
