I resent my family
I am 18/m in my family with a little sister that is 16 and a brother thats 9
my sister steals my sh*t all the time, just found my phone charger in her room that i have been missing for 1 month, when i lost it my family told me that i am forgetful and irresponsible
also a short while ago i was kicked out of my house for 1 week, becuase my parents suspected me of stealing my sisters laptop and selling it to a pawn shop
after a week of being kickd out her friend calls our house and lets my parents know she left her laptop at her friends house and forgot
i have been kicked out constantly for the past 2 years for smoking pot, i was sent away to Utah Wilderness for smoking pot for 2 months of hiking and torture and then rehab
i have only smoked pot never done a serious drug {drank alcohol}
MY Dad smokes pot
my sis constantly freaks out if she does not get her way, and my parents buy her everything
she recently broke 5 pictures hanging on the wall ripped my screen in half with scissors threw my moms crystal weddng gift thing that shattrd and pretty much didnt stop for 2 hours because she didnt have a ride to her friends house after calling my mom a b**ch
i pretty much sit in my room whenever im home to avoid being around any of my family
it seems like my mom and sister never actually try talking about situations before screaming and throwing a tantrum,
my parents think i am lazy and unmotivated,
even though i have a construction job which i work at 4 times a week

i suggest getting some buddies and renting out an apartment. you got a job and all. just tell your parents you want out, and if they aren't complete dicks, they'll pay for some of your stuff like insurance rent or school related payments.
and there you go, you get to blaze with a couple friends at YOUR place and no parents to tell you to clean the plates or a sister to "steal" a laptop from.
dude, get to living the life.
At the time, there was nothing else I could do. No one fit in with my ideas of what should be.
Of course, I had to go back, my mum called the police on several occasions. I can even remember kicking one in the face (as, like, a 7 year old), when he threatened to lock me up cos I was so bad for running away.
You know, at the time, it was my entire existence at risk.
But, your family are separate and independent souls from yours. They are seeking their way through life, just like you are. Your soul may have a very different destination from theirs, maybe that's what you'r feeling. That they are constricting you, not allowing you to follow the path you see for yourself.
Maybe, just now anyway, you can reign in your plans, look at your family and see them trying to accommodate you in their own paths.
You are obviously someone who can see this. I feel you can see things from a different perspective as can I. Like someone looking from the outside. You can see yourself held back and restricted. But, this is only for now. Maybe it's better that you just watch and learn? See how people are.
Your life will be wonderful I'm sure, and you will have the freedom to decide for yourself soon enough.
Bide your time. Your time will come.
