I want to finish but if I don't do what she wants she threatens to stop paying. I have no money of my own and she makes too much for me to get grants. She also won't sign for a lone if I don't study her field of choice. Yet she paid for her favorite child to go to college. He and she are hateful to me. I suffer depression and they laugh and call me psycho. They blamed me for stealing money when I didn't. I think my younger brother did it but he can do no wrong either. I am moving in with a friend and will need a full time job to pay my half. I don't know my dad and have no close extended relatives. I am on my own. I will not speak to them again once I leave. They won't know where I will be and won't care. They think I'm the sick one. Maybe I am. I cry when they make fun of me. Anyway it felt good to vent.
Hi Proboscidea,
I'm sorry they are making fun of you. :/ You don't deserve to be made fun of or to be called 'psycho'. It sounds like you are in a toxic situation because you are subjected to their behavior or otherwise, you don't have college funded.
Have you thought of alternative ways to maybe pay for school so that you could lessen the control your mom has? Are there any work-study options available or maybe a less expensive school you could go to part-time while working... ?
