I'm struggling with this, and I have been for years and I don't know what to do anymore.
I'm 22 and have a problematic home life. I have an overbearing and controlling mother, and pretty much have no freedoms. She doesn't even let me grow a beard, or go out or have friends. My family argue alot, like everyday, and I can't stand it anymore.
I recently got into a relationship, and it's starting to cause problems, as I can bearly seem him or stay over at nights. They say that they want me to live with him, and that they will support me, and I do want to live with him and I do love him, but we are still a new couple, and don't know if leaving is the best action.
If I left, it would be sudden, and during the middle of the night, and it'll probably mean I'll never see my family again, as I'll be pretty much dead to them.
But I also feel guilty, as I have another brother and sister who also ran away from home, and I don't want to put her through it again, but I can't take her she talks to me (she belittles and insults and has to have her own way, or else she screams and throws a fit). She makes us do tons of work, and then tell's me how I don't do anything, and she constantly tells me how I have no friends and all I have is her.
I don't know what to do. I need advice.
I dunno, many reasons I guess. I feel bad so I'm gunna be working soon, and we need some of that money to get by, and I'd feel guilty, and I'm worried about what would happen to my other brother and sister if i left them alone with her. Plus I'm worried at what she will do, she likes to cause scenes and she'll cause alot of problems for my and my partner (which she would do anyway, indifferent of me leave lol).
But it's getting so stressful too. Not a day goes by when I don't get stressed or angry at anything she says.
