Well you are what 20 or 22? Time to stick up for yourself. Tell your parents that you want to see a therapist. If they say no then you call the crisis center and will make arrangements yourself. They cannot keep you prisoner..but it sounds like you are really the one who is making yourself a prisoner. You have a computer and a cell phone. Use them.

If they agree to therapy when you get there you tell the therapist that you want to be with him by yourself. At your age it is impossible for the therapist to follow your parents wishes.

I don't see why your brother getting help has anything to do with you. If your parents try to use that excuse ask them why it matters. I'm guessing that you are getting social security because of your issues. That money is for your care not for your parents to use as they wish. Again if they refuse to help you it's time to call the crisis center.

As Superduck said...you are your best advocate.

Your right its time I am a adult My parents are my guardians but that does not mean that they can keep me from getting help I need to talk to a therapist about what happened to me a a child. I do get disability
They said that that money is not mine its theirs to help take care of me they need to let me go back just till i get my life back in order. well she the therapist has to follow my parents wishes because their my guardians. I hate being under guardianship It makes my life so much harder. I have a computer and a cell phone I am just going to have to use them even if I get into trouble. I have to make sure that I get the help I need before its to late. I can do this. I am a strong person. I survived being abused and beaten while in foster care. I can survive my parents yelling and screaming. at me.

There are always two sides to every story...

There are two sides to every story that's what my aunt always tells me

It appears you have had many chances to speak up but then again we are just hearing your side and what about the 2 kids you tell me you had ? And your husband their dad?????? This is not funny.

I am sorry I need to tell you the truth I am scared to tell people the truth because I don't want to get into trouble for telling the truth. If I tell the truth then I will get hurt
