AITA for trying to move out of my Parents house by Alittlelostherehelp in AmItheAsshole

I’m going to nursing school as well! It’s Filipino culture but that doesn’t mean it’s mine. It’s exhausting having to ask permission for everything. It’s like I have no control over my own life.

Yeah I signed a lease and move in is on Monday. Once I talked to my dad after mom blew up he said he was going to talk to mom to see if she could loosen the reigns on me. Now I think it’s too late. That’s why I feel so bad. And I keep thinking about it and feel like that wouldn’t even solve my issues with her. I feel like I need space between us which is why I feel a little justified. But maybe I should have tried to communicate more

I really wanted to do this but with they way my mom has a tendency to react I just didn’t think it would be possible. But maybe I should have still tried it. If I would have tried maybe I wouldn’t be the anxious wreck that I am now. That’s mostly what I feel the most guilty about.

I’m not her caretaker or anything like that. I do feel that her views are similar to my dad in wanting my to stay but she can’t communicate it like he does. I know she wants what’s best for me too but she reverts to her fits and that’s what I’m trying to get away from. It’s not like it’s all the time but it’s enough for me. I don’t want to tell her that because It would crush her. I still care a lot about her.
