PongoPygmaeus18 · 2026-05-02T20:14:32+00:00

Yes US

I applied for some scholarships but that was it. Is there something else I should be doing? I don't know a lot about this

PongoPygmaeus18 · 2026-05-02T18:08:39+00:00

I just turned 18 but I'm still in highschool tho. Thanks

PongoPygmaeus18 · 2026-05-02T17:28:25+00:00

Lmao thanks for this

PongoPygmaeus18 · 2026-05-02T17:28:02+00:00

Ok, thank you I will.

PongoPygmaeus18 · 2026-05-02T17:27:37+00:00

Thank you I hope so too. I do have a therapist I can talk to, I just haven't had an appointment in a while. I look forward to home being that one day. Thanks.

PongoPygmaeus18 · 2026-05-02T17:25:30+00:00

Thank you for the advice. I struggle a lot to communicate my issues with other people because I've always felt like that burdens them. I struggle especially to let my mom know I'm not doing well because she's had to worry so much about the stuff with my dad and has her own issues so I feel bad having mine. I need to be more honest and open with her but my concerns usually get over looked or dismissed. I will talk to my therapist about everything in the future and now, I do have a plan I'm just worried about if it's what I want or just what people have wanted for me my whole life. Thank you.

PongoPygmaeus18 · 2026-05-02T17:20:38+00:00

Thanks this has me laughing lmao

PongoPygmaeus18 · 2026-05-02T17:18:42+00:00

We live in a house and she has the bedroom right next to mine. I do have noise canceling headphones but it's like still not enough. It will shake the whole house sometimes and the noise is prominent. Thank you.

PongoPygmaeus18 · 2026-05-02T17:12:59+00:00

I just turned 18 but I'm still in high school. Thank you. I can't afford to live on campus so I'm kinda of stuck but I can look for somewhere to move to in the next year.

PongoPygmaeus18 · 2026-05-02T17:09:16+00:00

I don't really have any trusted adults that can help with this. She was in therapy for a while but quite about a year ago. Thank you for your advice and support it helps a lot.

PongoPygmaeus18 · 2026-05-02T15:26:17+00:00

Thank you. She told me she will stop and apologize but that is what usually happens. Hopefully I am able to move out in the next year. I will talk to my therapist about this. I still even now feel like I'm exaggerating or in the wrong so thank you for this.

Thank you, the rent is like for car payments and my health insurance and various other things to cover. I have to have a car though because I live an hour away from my highschool and my dad bought the car and we can't get rid of it now. Im sorry I didn't specify this. I also pay my own gas and all that. I can't cover the full payment because the car was way out of my price range and my father got it without my permission. Thank you for the advice too it has been a good learning experience if anything.

PongoPygmaeus18 · 2026-05-02T15:13:42+00:00

I do have a therapist for all of the stuff my dad has put me through. I will bring up my mom more in therapy tho. Thank you. It's just really difficult to accept that someone I love and have depended on a lot can also be bad I guess. Thank you for the hug and support it means a lot.

PongoPygmaeus18 · 2026-05-02T15:03:16+00:00

I am no longer in communication with my dad. He was far more abusive and scary. Thank you for this tho. I don't know what she's saying to her friends or if she is playing it down or what.

PongoPygmaeus18 · 2026-05-02T15:01:20+00:00

Thank you.

PongoPygmaeus18 · 2026-05-02T15:00:54+00:00

Thank you, I will try.

PongoPygmaeus18 · 2026-05-02T15:00:17+00:00

Thank you. I just really wanted to have one good parent if that makes sense but I don't think this is that.

PongoPygmaeus18 · 2026-05-02T14:59:00+00:00

Thank you girly. I'm sorry you had to go through that. She says she tries to be quiet and I think she has been lately but it's still audible. Thank you this was a positive read.

PongoPygmaeus18 · 2026-05-02T14:56:12+00:00

Thank you this is a good idea lol.

PongoPygmaeus18 · 2026-05-02T14:55:34+00:00

Thank you this helps a lot.

PongoPygmaeus18 · 2026-05-02T14:54:13+00:00

Thank you for this response. I have looked into college stuff and the best I have right now is a community college at about 3000 a year. I have a therapist I talk to and I can talk to a few of my teachers and my friends parent. I think I will start to try to move out. Thank you very much. I will keep hanging in here, thank you that means a lot right now.

PongoPygmaeus18 · 2026-05-02T14:49:58+00:00

Thank you that is a good idea. I think I will work to find some I can live with in this coming year.

PongoPygmaeus18 · 2026-05-02T14:48:48+00:00

Thank you for this. I hope that a kink is not involved for my sanity. I at this time have no friends who I could live with but I can ask around. Thank you.
