has this happened to anyone else?
so when before i turned 18, my parents told me i had to get a job and start working. so of course when i started working i didn't have a way to get around yet. so i depend on my parents. but they acted like they were inconvenienced by it. so they told me i needed to learn how to drive and get a license. so i would ask them to take me to the dmv to do so and again, like it was inconvenient for them. so i had to rely on my friends. i eventually got my license but didn't have a car and again, they refused to help until I BEGGED to have the old car. and so eventually they gave in. but I've been giving them money since i was 19 because they demanded rent from me so i haven't been able to save money because I've been having to buy my own food and other stuff to care for myself.
and one day, we got into a fight and they said i was crazy and needed help/ therapy. but when i started getting therapy, they took issue with it. i did it because i sincerely thought i was the problem and thought by me getting help it would mend and repair the relationship.
but it didn't. i've done my best to show my respect, to follow their rules, work and do everything that is asked of me and get along with everyone and things still haven't gotten better and i constantly continue to wonder what am i doing wrong?
im trying to do everything they ask of me and im still getting shit for it.. idk, i feel crazy and like im losing my sanity. i don't know what to do and it has taken a tole on my mental health and need to know its not just me.
