I have lived with my parents for my entire life and after 26 years I had enough. The day I move out I would cry from happiness.

I wish I was never born into the family I am in my dad emotionally abuses me all the time

To those who are crying here with pain like me:
Let us all make a promise to not behave bad, abusive to our children in the future. We shld not do all shits that our abusive parents did to us.Behaving like them will spoil our children in the Future. Lets all get out from this pain by going to job and stand on our own, Live life happily and should be a Friendly Guiding parent to our future generation❤️❤️

No one can fully understand your situation. Leave your home when you get older and strong enough to be independent !

I’m afraid to get help and I don’t know why, my heart beats so fast whenever I think about it or whenever I think about the idea of living with my parents more than I want to.

“Keep a journal” bro they read that and it makes things ten times worse

[kurapika]

My parents just abuse me physically, mentally and emotionally

[sharmisthabarari]

One day be so much strong that you don't even need your parent's help for surviving. ☺️

My mom has emotionally abused me since I was 7. She yells at me when she feel like it, and keeps saying things like "you're useless. You bring bad luck to this family." I honestly wanna leave but I can't right now.

It’s harder than you think to just “contact someone” (resource) because they’re your parents and even though you get hurt by them all the time, it feels like your doing the wrong thing.

I avoided my parents because of the verbal abuse, anytime they would yell at me, I'd have my head down and I'd just mutter "yes, and no", that's seriously all I'd say. I actually was recently just diagnosed with avoidant personality disorder. I wouldn't speak up because I didn't want to start conflict, So I began to avoid them to the point of being a hermit in my room. And now they don't even know who I am. This has drastically affected how I treat my other relationships with friends and family, because I avoid emotion in social situations. I'd always have to be the bigger person in every single conflict; reversing the parental role. Please, don't avoid your parents and don't let them walk all over you! It seriously has fucked up my life. Does anyone have any advice? I’m trying to move out ASAP, I just turned 19.

[sunnii_]

My parents both verbally and physically abuse me. I can’t even write what they have been doing to me cause it’s hard. They will never let me tell them how I am actually feeling. I just wanna move out far away and start a new life. I’m just praying and hoping that day will come...
