Advice from women on how to actually live?
hello everyone 23f here, i have this situation that i have been stuck in since last two years- my house
yep, my parents got to know that i was seeing someone in college and since then things have gone downhill for me, they were not chill parents ever but they were not as scrutinizing as they have become.
They did not let me sit for placements and hence i could not land a job, i thought sitting at home is helping me with nothing so i am currently pursuing masters from my own town as i was not allowed to leave.
So many of my ambitions have been crushed by my one mistake and now i just can't seem to feel joy anymore. I have to ask for permission for everything, i have very less autonomy in my life, my mom is usually just criticizing me no matter what i do, they won't let me leave to pursue job in another city. it just keeps screwing my brain.
I know a lot of you would suggest to move out i am trying my best but still if anyone has any advice on how to hold on, i would really appreciate it.
I know a lot of you have gone through worse than this and come out even stronger but how did you make it through?
