leave home to escape abuse

Living with abusive parents created mental issues and guilt. I'm tired of being manipulated and controlled.

What I wish I knew
"Setting boundaries and seeking help sooner could have alleviated suffering."
If I could tell you one thing
"Prioritize self-care and seek support when dealing with toxic family dynamics."
