Sorry to hear that you are left with so few options. If it’s any consolation, you are not alone. One of the counselors at my son’s school pled with all the parents at a school meeting to ease up on their kids because she had some kids sobbing and breaking down in her office from the strain of parents and overwork. Your counselor sounds unprofessional, so I agree that if your school has a psychologist you should meet with them, or find another trusted adult. You need to focus on your mental health and getting enough sleep is a part of that.

Just remember that you won’t be stuck in this situation forever and there are many teens like you who can’t wait to escape their unsupportive parents.
