Adult woman- need serious help
I’m a 21-year-old woman who recently graduated from college and received a well-paying job offer. However, my family is refusing to let me take the job because they want me to work with my father instead.
I cannot continue living under these conditions. My father is extremely controlling and emotionally manipulative. I’m not allowed to make basic personal choices such as who I talk to, what I wear, or where I go. I’m expected to return home by 8 PM at the latest, and I’m not even allowed to sleep alone.
Because of this, I’ve decided to leave home, change my phone number and device, and relocate to take up the job opportunity independently. I have enough savings to support myself financially, and I also plan to give a voluntary statement to the police beforehand confirming that I am leaving of my own free will and that I am safe.
I want to ensure that I can start my life independently without being tracked down or forced to return by my family.
