I'm In Need For Advice!

I recently turned 20 and my parents treat me like I'm a child. I have many issues in life one of them is not knowing how to keep a house tidy, I try but when I start I get mentally exhausted because I don't know where to start like I have reverse OCD. My parents always bring it up and it really frustrates me because I try to explain it to them but I can't get through or get them to understand which I've gotten to the point to just accept at this point.

My mother keeps going onto me saying I'll "never be able to live in a place on my own" and that I would "never cope". The problem is I used to live on my own and yes the place wasn't exactly clean but my mental health was so much better than what it is now. I was able to go for walks, catch a bus or a train without having massive anxiety or panic attacks, but now I can't even walk outside without have one of those.

I want to move out and I want to live on my own but I feel like I can never achieve that as I feel I'm being forced to this house against my will. What advice would you give me to make the first step in getting out of this place? Because there is only so much I can cope with living in this stress house.

  • Hi, 

    I don't know whats is available near you but have you considered something like supported living? So you can have the independence to get yourself back on track with going out and things but still having the support should you need it? 

    I don't know if that is even an option for you but constantly being told you can't do something is really going to effect your well being 

    Good luck
