I remember taking the step to find my own apartment and then later, tell my parents I was NOT coming home for the summer during college. It was terrifying and there were screaming fights, followed by threats to cut me off completely, followed by my mother crying and weeping and trying to guilt me into coming home. I won't lie, it was horrible for a while. HOWEVER, it got better. They eventually accepted that my moving out permanently was just what was happening and nothing was going to change that. It was a huge, important step and so liberating. You can do this. Please feel free to PM me if you want to.
