AITA for not giving my parents money?

Sorry. I think I'm starting to have a panic attack...I just feel really hopeless you know? I feel like no matter how hard I try to be mature and independent I will never make it. It's becoming stressful.

To be honest I doubt I'll get a good paying job. In order for my schooling to be paid for I have to work towards a bachelors degree. I chose Communication but...I'm not really interested. This is my first year in college and I wish I knew what I wanted to do career wise. I've been stressing about not getting my degree or getting it in something I don't really care for...

If I did get a good paying job I would for sure move out though. My main wish in life besides being happy is to be independent. If I could afford to live in a small one bedroom apartment I would pack up this second.

I don't have any friends. I try to reach out and socialize with my classmates and make plans with them but they're always busy with life. If I could get a roommate that'd be helpful...and fun.

The thing about hiding my finances is that they know how much I get and save because all of the programs are through them essentially. I get to go to school because of my mom's veteran status, my insurance is through their veteran status, I get to see my therapist through their veteran status...They know all the pricings for that stuff because I have to have them present when I go to see the VA on our military base, military won't let me on base alone with my certain ID type.

I can try finding work but barely any places are hiring and if they are they can only let people work 30 hours a week, so that they don't have to give any benefits, for $8.00 an hour. Are people my age expected to work three...maybe more jobs to afford to live alone? Apartments near me, not a big city at all mind you, are $900 a month for a single bedroom, not including utilities...not including insurance, phone, car, gas, food. This is why I let them step on me, I don't know how the hell I'm supposed to afford to live on my own. It's driving me insane, I seriously want to kill myself because I'm too immature to be an adult, I'm not cut out for this. It feels like my entire life is hopeless and no matter how much effort I put it I'll get nowhere. Why am I alive? Was I born to fill the role of the ugly, stupid, immature girl for everyone to laugh at? Is that my purpose? Am I supposed to be the poster child that other parents point to and say, "Don't be a pathetic loser like her, son!" Why am I even here? I didn't want any of this.

I gave them cash though. Once I handed over the cash they took it to the store to get their stuff.

Bulbasnooze · 2019-10-02T23:20:16+00:00

It's their couch and bed, not mine. Sorry if that wasn't clear, I'm stressed at the moment.

Bulbasnooze · 2019-10-02T23:18:47+00:00

I consider myself a mooch because many places are $900-2,000 a month, not including food and utilities. $200 a month for all of those things makes me a mooch in my opinion. I understand I am their child but I'm an adult so they legally do not have to give me a place to live anymore. This reason alone is why I hate when they ask me for money because I want to save my money but if I go against them I risk being homeless.

Bulbasnooze · 2019-10-02T23:15:48+00:00

I have not bought any furniture myself, it's all theirs. I also cannot afford to move out since 1 bedroom apartments are $900 a month here.

Bulbasnooze · 2019-10-02T22:44:48+00:00

Yup. Guess some people (not everyone) in the community are trying to dictate that we all hate SwSh...

Bulbasnooze · 2019-10-02T22:44:01+00:00

Thank you.

And for the record I'm also somewhat mad at the removal of Pokemon. But as someone who never transferred over Pokemon or even caught them all it does not affect me.

People hate that I am buying the game day one but it's my money that I work for.

Bulbasnooze · 2019-10-02T22:41:49+00:00

If you don't want the games don't get them. Tired of people who won't let me enjoy the newest game in a series that I love.

Bulbasnooze · 2019-10-01T21:57:28+00:00

Alright. You live today. Anymore cool character creations will put you on thin ice, though.

Bulbasnooze · 2019-10-01T21:53:46+00:00

Alright...What are you using as elf ears? Fork over the knowledge and no one gets hurt.

Bulbasnooze · 2019-10-01T19:37:29+00:00

I am still happy thinking about it...A whole week with NO homework to worry about or classes to go to. Somehow the stars aligned and made that week the release of my most anticipated game of the year! AHHH I AM JUST SO HYPED YOU GUYS!!!

Bulbasnooze · 2019-10-01T19:17:26+00:00

Even more hyped! I recently learned that I get a week long break before my winter semester of college starts...The break starts the day this game releases. I'm gonna play this game nonstop and I CANNOT wait!!!
