Trying to get a degree while living with abusers

Vent / Rant

Does anybody else have this situation going on for them? You’re in university and your abuser is paying for it (at least I have that) but then at the same time I’m dealing with depression and anxiety and adhd and obviously cPTSD as well where I have to live with them while also studying. Although I’m going to start adhd meds soon so hopefully that can help. But there’s nothing to look forward to, it’s literally all about survival. The goal is to get my degree and get a job so that I can thrive but the journey is long. What is everyone else’s situations? How do you deal with it financially? Covert abuse is so damaging 😢
