I hate living at home and Idk what else to do?

I'm 17 and sick of living at home. My parents avoid each other at all costs. My mom is avoiding my dad because of how she thinks he's cheating on her. I never was able to do the things I wanted in my childhood and I feel like I was trapped in my own shell unable to get free. My mom is against everything i seem to do and cant stand my gf. I cant be independent because my mom never lets me make my own choices.

    Wicca. I mean... live outside.

    Also, consider that it's your house if you lived there for 17 years. Fight against your parents looking down on one another. Don't tolerate it. Don't tolerate anything you don't like in your domain. Scream, shout, yell, strike, push, suppress, thrash, wrestle, and smile in their faces all the while.... Don't cause permanent or long-term damage and try hard not to cause to bruise or bleed. Blame them for starting the fights, if they display aggression first. And if you can't deal with them, you have two options: throw them out or take a walk, yourself.

    It's not obvious. I'm not going to say like, "What's the matter, dude? Never thrown your dad out of his own house?" But it's as much yours as theirs, actually. You have absolute power over everything that happens in your home, and with that control comes responsibility. You better start learning how to use that power responsibly. Regain control. Make everything go down exactly the way you want it to.... And a big hint: when you start, it's easier if you corner people and work 1-on-1.

    Start packing up, find an apartment to move into, get a job, and move out the second you turn 18. Your legal to move out when you turn 18. If you don't have a job then start looking now!
