Today was my senior high interview.. told them I wanted to be a pscyhologist and all..
My dad:
– Interrupted me when I said I wanted psychology, pushing medicine instead (my former dream, but my interests shifted.)
– Screamed in the car “You’re an idiot! You should be in the mental hospital! You have no social life!” “You’re not pretty because you’re always in the corner, don’t even try to look good anymore, no one will approach you anyway”
– Mocked my introversion “You want psychology? You can’t fix wyour own behavior!”
– Shamed me for not talking to classmates, who were interviewed in the same school.
“What do you care if I ask their names? you have to say something for once!”
(what happened is that I asked WHY before saying the name)
They’ve always been like this, humiliating me for being quiet, acting like I’m defective just because I don’t perform extroversion for them, I KNOW, I KNOW I NEED COOPERATION, I’m not lacking.
but my god. my god pls I’m not the type to hang out.. I’ll do my responsibility and then go home.. they fear that someone else will say something. thank God im mentally strong and doesn’t give a fuck.. I’m only going to be gr 11 man.

Sounds like you are an introvert with an a hole parent. Can you stick it out now and then leave and not look back?
Stop taking on their shitty behavior as a reflection of you. They’re assholes.
Bide your time and then remove them from your life when you can
I’m a therapist. Medicaid in my state pays 108 for a 45 minute session. All of my insurance companies pay more. If I see 20 clients a week I make over 100k a year working half of a work week.
Seems pretty fucking stupid to me. I love my job and enjoy going to work every day. I bet your parents can’t say the same. I bet they are miserable and have no idea how to pursue something they are passionate about.
Follow your dreams and passions.
