I've recently moved out into a shed in the backyard that we've been renovating for almost two years. Just yesterday, I moved my new bed, my studio, and drumkit in. And it's great! I'm super happy that we've finally finished the upstairs. But now my dad has kicked me out of the family house. Which yea, I knew would happen, but it was just suddenly there and I'm freaking out about it.

I now have to learn how to cook, self-sustain, and keep up with bills and taxes. I know every adult has to do this, but I don't feel like an adult, and I turn 20 in March. I'm a very social person, and not being around my family to talk, especially my brother, has made me lonely and drained.

I'm taking one more semester at a community college to buy time until I move up to the city for university, but that's only until June. I feel so much pressure to do all this, and I'm all by myself. I struggle so badly with ADHD that I worry if I'll be able to function on my own. I'm in a really scary spot, and still dazed from the transfer, so I just ask that you guys hope the best for me. I don't want to repeat that month long depression I had last year, but even as an optimist, I fear it's starting to creep in again.

I'm confused, you were kicked out of the house but you still live in the backyard? And you're not allowed to talk to them? Isn't that awkward?

Anyway, I believe in you! You can do it!

Yea, we have a shed in the backyard that we’ve cleaned up, and I’ve moved in there. Still at home, technically, but I'm not allowed to “live” there, so I can’t talk with my family as much. It’s so weird, and I’m having to get used to living alone.

you are at a crossroads, and you will rise to the occasion as you must! it ain't easy but you will do it.

it's pretty hecked up for your family to exile you with no notice though, I don't think that's okay and it'll be good for you to get away once you do.

Up to you if you want to confront them about it, but like you say, it is pretty weird. Maybe they want to show tough love, and they could understand that it is weird and a bit unreasonable to exclude you like this and change. But if not, yeah gtfo of there when you can.
