That actually sounds like a pretty sweet deal. Though I admit I'm coming from a place on the very opposite spectrum so parents and money sounds good at nearly any cost.

Real advice: Stop giving away the money, save it up for your future. Find a therapist and talk this stuff out, figure out how to create a support network and figure out how to slowly make the step from where you are now to a life on your own. Your parents aren't the only ones who can advise you.

Depending on your mental illnesses you could even get a guardian/mentor/caretaker to help you out with certain steps and life stuff you can't do on your own.

If you want your life to change, change it. You've at least got what sounds like a stable place to live and a good source of income, which is a huge step up and will make things so much easier. Good luck.

I see where you're coming from. They give me so much financially, it's no wonder it took me eighteen years to realize how abusive the situation is. But it is, and I have to leave, and maybe there is a way out someday, but from day to day I can't see it. I can't see it. And they're the only ones who can handle me, so even if I were young enough to be taken away, it would only make things worse.

I want out, but nobody wants me, so what's the point? How much better can it be to be completely alone?

DA

So why do you need somebody to want you? Wouldn't you be better off focusing on wanting better for yourself? Especially if the people you're giving money to see you as an endless cash machine and don't reciprocate in any way.

SA

Yeah, I realized afterwards how callous and generally not helpful my first part of my reply was. I'm just in a pretty awful place myself, but I didn't mean to belittle your struggle or anything.

Maybe set up a daily reminder or daily affirmation for why you're going to change things and why you want to get out. Just something little you can look at or read and it will bolster yourself to keep going. Because it definitely sounds like you need to make a change in your life.

Why are your parents "the only ones who can handle you"? Is there a reason you aren't able to handle yourself? Is it the mental illness you mentioned? Or is it something they told you repeatedly until it was stuck in your head? Or a mix of the two?

I'm not trying to be an asshole or anything, I'm genuinely curious.

If you want your life to change, change it.

Pretty much this, as harsh as it sounds. Though I disagree with the anon above me, I can see how your income is unstable right now, being at your parents' whim. Get some volunteer experience, then get out there and start job-hunting. Then you really will have a stable income.
