Hey this is more of a "Any ideas on how to deal with this?" Thread than any whiny complaint cr@p.
So I have been diagnosed with severe depression and am bipolar (or however you announce that). I'm 19 and went up North for a semester of college (Freshman) though I never really fit in with the whole crowd. When I came back for winter break my parents (divorced don't see dad, so I mean stepfather) had basically decided that I should move back here (CA) and go to this community college.
Since then my mother has been using her psychological guilt control over me (start at age 7) to make me do what she wants. My step father has to be gone most of the time but he always tries to be the one no one hates. My siblings are coming back now (I'm oldest of four) and I know that I'm the black sheep in the family so that is going to be more reason for my mother to use me as the scape goat.
I've thought about moving out but I can't support myself out here and I have personal responsibilities to tie me to the house. My mother also loves to try and control every aspect of my life, and counters me with some form of reasonable guilt trip (She and my step father/sisters all have learning disabilities, bizarre migraine trouble and a huge host of other medical phenomena).
So any thoughts that might help? I decided to turn to this site because you guys have helped me so very much in the past (Especially getting an 8 gf that can't get enough of me. Though that's not going well either because of all my home issues...)
Anything would help, sorry it's so long and b1tchy.
