Question: Can my anxiety be from my parents.? are they bad parents.?
my parents yell a lot over things that are not important. i dread weekends because of the stress they bring to me. i have social anxiety and i do not leave the house very often. i am so worried about disappointing them so i never do anything wrong. at times they yell so loud that i feel like i am going to pass out. i am really worried of my grades because i want to leave the house as soon as i turn 18. i think being a way from them would do me some good.Health Question & Answer


Answers:
Tell yourself that you are neither a "good" or a "bad" person. I think this is what happens to kids who have really critical parents. Find out what is most important to you. Disappointing your parents or being happy.? I have very critical parents and I have had to tell myself "I am going to be ME no matter what. If I disappoint them...that is their problem" If you don't have an iPod get one and listen to music when you are in the house. As for your grades tell yourself, "You know what.?.? I am NOT getting grades for them. I am learning for ME not for THEM" Start separating your identity from them. Tell yourself you are you and not your parents. (and thank God!) It will get better and I like your way of thinking that you want to leave the house when you are 18. THis shows that you do not want to be in an unhealthy environment anymore. Hope it works. It gets better!

My parents used to yell alot and he scared me and made me feel sad. My father is deceased now - but both my folks are/were VERY judgemental with high expectations and I always worried about not measuring up....dissapoint them to the point that I pretty much became a rebel.

Yes, if they bring you stress - it would probably be good to distance yourself from them. Try to do your best in school - then work on getting a job - anything. You can find roommates. In the long run., it's probably bestHealth Question & Answer

Getting away from they may help with some of your problems, but it will not be the answer to all, seeking help from a psychologist can help you overcome your anxiety.
