I know this isn鈥檛 the best place to talk about this, but it seems like I have no friends irl to talk to since my parents demand that I鈥檓 to be locked in the house all day doing schoolwork.
So basically, my schedule is very busy. (I have school/get ready for school 6:30-2:30, I have tennis usually 2 hours a day, I have piano for 30 minutes a day, and I have homework for like 2+ hours every night, and on top of that I have to constantly study for tests.) Also I basically have to be in bed by 10:30 or my parents act like they want to take me to the guillotine and chop off my head.
Also, my parents think I鈥檓 a total slack off (I have a low A in biology class, a mid A in English class, and I play on the computer every spare second I get, which is on average 10 minutes a day)
But all of the stuff I have is overwhelming me. Right now, I鈥檝e just been crying for the past half an hour instead of doing my homework because I am so overwhelmed about what I have to do, and my dad started screaming and swearing at me because I stomped on the floor or some random shit.
It just seems like my parents hate me and they want me to kill myself or something.
If you read all of this, thank you. Idk why I wrote this blog instead of doing homework, so I should probably get started or I won鈥檛 be able to watch survivor for the third week in a row.
Just please tell me I鈥檓 living a normal life and that I am a normal person who breathes air like everyone else or some shit, thanks.
It seems like your parents have high expectations, however as parents should be, they do appreciate you, they love you, and want you to succeed in life. It may seem as overbearing (trust me, my mom is the exact same way), but they just want you to succeed. They don't hate you, they don't want you to commit suicide, they just care about you.
Maybe you should write ur feelings, like you did here, to ur mom and/or dad. I bet they don't even realize how much pressure they are putting on you. Good luck!
We legit have the same parents OMG. I can't have below a B in any classes or my phone is taken away, I have two "tickets" each week that are each 50 minutes and have an hour of screen each day on the weekend.
wow that sucks. i know how you feel. but not hat bad. i am sure your parents love you but expect way too much. you should talk to them, and feel free to message me.
It gets better. My parents were quite strict growing up as well. We were expected to be in extra curricular activities and get A's. You absolutely need to talk to them and tell them you are getting overwhelmed. If they don't listen then you need to reach out elsewhere.
Soon enough you will be off on your own however, and when that time comes you have to do only what is best for you. When graduation comes you do you exactly what you feel is best.
