I'm 17, Muslim and female I have an over controlling mother who wants me to complete this 'Islamic scholars' course which takes a lot of time, takes roughly between 8-9 years part time and 5-6 years full time I agreed to do it when I was 14 part time Now, when I was 16 and wanted to start sixth form, I told my mom I don't think I'd be able to cope with both A levels and the course as they both require time and dedication but she threatened to take away my phone, stop me from going to sixth form and not talk to me at all, and convince the rest of my family to do the same, so I was forced to carry on so I did But now it's gotten to the point where I physically can't cope anymore, so I told my mom I want to take a break for a year from the course and after a lot of arguments she agreed Now it's been a year and she wants me to go back, but I begged her and said no, so she took my phone off me And we had a lot of arguments, And she said from now on I'm dead for her and she doesn't care about me She also won't let me go to university even though I really wanted to And my dad just listens to her because he's chronically depressed, and my siblings don't want to take my side otherwise she'll make their life a living hell, she sometimes just lashes out on me and hits me and I don't know what to do She's ruining all my opportunities and making me feel like an outcast and unwanted in my own home and I just feel really depressed What can I do
Put the internet to work for you.
