I currently live with my parents. As many of you possibly know, living in a crowded house with adults can sometimes cause tension. Because of my personal current financial situation (I am currently rigorously trying to gain employment), it is impossible for me to even escape my own home town to be by myself even for just a few hours.
When I was diagnosed with Autism, the psychiatrist I saw told me to find a quiet spot when I feel anxious. Finding a quiet spot in my house is virtually impossible, my parents would probe me as to whether there is something wrong. I love both of my parents dearly, and I am grateful for all they have done for me. Normally, I don't mind being an ear to bend to their problems, even if they have a bad day, as we all have them from time to time. However, listening to their problems day after day after day, just makes me frustrated and I crave independence and a place of my own even more.
Has anyone else felt like this?
