Good luck. I know how it can be sometimes, just putting one foot in front of the other is what you've got to do. I agree with turquoisesea....it's YOUR life, no one else's. We can be here for support, and I'm sure your parents want to be there to support you also...and do just want the best for you...but hopefully they can support you in whatever decisions you make about your future. I say, follow your dreams! That's great that you want to go into creative writing! What a great thing to do...maybe your writing will change the world somehow! I'm sure that it will. Just trust in the process and in the journey. Stay strong, and stay connected with your emotions, even though it's hard sometimes. Keeping you in my thoughts.
