I'm in a predicament, and I just really just need advice.
I'm a 16 year old that has recently obtained a GED. The plan was starting 2 years at community college and transferring to 2 years at a university. You can see my ambitious nature here.
Unfortunately, my mother has been diagnosed with schizophrenia. I am a minor, so my father has full custodian rights solely to himself. He is having her live at my residence against the landlord's(my grandmother) will. My mother is harassing me, and I feel ridiculously uncomfortable. I have my own set of mental health issues which is mild depression and social anxiety disorder. Luckily, I am receiving treatment. She will most likely interfere with my plans. I do not want to mess up a fresh start.
What if I can't take the stress any more? What if I break down? What if my parents arrive at my college and start an embarrassing scandal? It's already happened in other places.
I would like to work as a CNA for 2 years. At least if I mess that up, my GPA won't go down the drain. It's the best I can do as a minor. I will become emancipated at 18, and start living by myself hopefully stress free and not obligated into my current environment.
Advice?
