Hello community! By the end of this week, I ask for decisive and assertive advice based on your experience and intuition. If I may, powerful, wise, and confident advice that can move mountains because this is what ensures that i will heed advice, honestly… I’m F23. I have a phobia – I am afraid of my father (M50). He wants to go for a walk with me. He didn’t beat me or call names but he can hurt me with his words. I will explain. According to the psychiatrist’s words, since I have the diagnosis schizotypal disorder, you see, I still don’t know how to do some things with my hands by myself (for example, buying something in a shop, opening food packaging, unlocking the front door with a key, paying for the metro). I don’t go outside. I am very scared to learn these things with my dad, because he reacts badly and impatiently when I cannot do them or hesitate. Are these really easy things? It is hard for me to say no to him, because he controls and manipulates me. I am also afraid to ruin our relationship and to argue with him, because he gives me some financial help. I’m studying but cannot work now due to my mental state. One time I tried to refuse, but he said things like: “You hurt me when you refuse,” “Don’t make a drama, it’s just a walk,” “I am doing this for your own good,” “You must go for a walk every day.” What should I do? P. S. My dad does not acknowledge my psychological or psychiatric problems and reacts very negatively to them.
TLDR: I’m F23 with schizotypal disorder, can’t manage basic tasks or go outside. Afraid of father (M50) – verbally hurtful, manipulative, dismissive of my condition. He pressures her into daily walks, reacts impatiently, and I feel unable to refuse due to financial dependence and fear of conflict. I ask what to do
