Cross posting from /advice 

Hi all,

I am a 31F in a small southern town. I was previously living in Salt Lake City on my own, but I came back south to be with family because my landlord was looking to wrongfully evict me for having an esa pet. 

I have PTSD, BPD (mostly regulated btw) as well as major depression and anxiety which I’m on meds for. I work remotely and have been putting money away for my family to save on my behalf on a CD to buy a place of my own in the summer. I now have a good amount saved up, and I have been tempted to leave my family’s place for a while now, mostly because I am suffocated by how little freedom I have. 

With the exception of trips to the supermarket or the post with them once every few weeks, I don’t leave the house. 

I used to be afraid of driving until recently, and I FINALLY got a license. I’ve been looking into renting a car to practice driving and to leave the house for a bit, since my parents won’t let me use their brand new car, and they find it to be a waste of money on my part. I am suffocated.

I know they’re trying to protect me because prior to treatment I had a bad track record, but it’s become too much for me. They amount every good thing in my life to them.

Recently I had asked them to give me money back a number of times to move out, and they refused. Today, though, I got a YES and a move out date of 11/15. Im scared because they keep saying that I will be ruining my life by making bad choices. I am also thinking of not talking to them once I leave due to their negativity, even when I tried to get my life in order they dwell on things I’ve done wrong over ten years ago.

I don’t know where I’ll go to yet and I’ll be on my own. Please let me know what your honest thoughts are on this and whether I’m making a good choice…
