I want to move out
I'm 25f audhd from Europe and my parents have threatened to put me permanently in a mental ward. Those places here are not good, they give people many heavy meds and I have seen on the news that some autistics have passed away even.
The culture is very extroverted, I come off as awkward. People don't like me for that, they tell me I'm too quiet. The jobs also are in tourism and restaurants, they always require good social skills. I have a science and logical mind and those sectors are almost nonexistent here. Families are close knit and it is rare that people rent on their own, salaries are low and rents are sky high especially in big cities.
I had a remote tech support job and I had moved to northern Europe for 1 year cause people are introverted there, I really liked it, I was in touch with my parents and my mother told me to quit my job and move back. I resisted but then sadly gave in. At home I was always picked on since I was a toddler. They have gotten physical and last time it was during quarantine. They also don't cook much or buy groceries and I have had malnutrition since I graduated high school. I feel weak and my tests come out bad, I have anemia and they yell at me. I called the emergency to get an ambulance and instead the police came. They sided with my parents without talking to me, my parents told them I have a crazy disorder. They took me to a psych emergency and my parents insisted they lock me in. They cannot do it cause I haven't done anything. I found another job and I want to rent, the costs are too high though. I was thinking of moving abroad again. I can't cook as well, I order takeouts but it's not getting better cause they're low nutrition. I take supplements tho. They sit at the kitchen and just yell at me. They yell at one another a lot cause they were forced to marry with arranged marriage. I'm often scared that they will get angry suddenly and try to lock me in again.
