Hey guys,

I apologize in advance for the length of the post.

I've been diagnosed with Bipolar II Disorder and adult ADHD, and have major anxiety and sleep disturbances as a result.
This of course has interfered with my studies (I'm a university student), I could barely go to any classes at all, it got so bad I missed all of them by the semester's end. But I still studied at home with the material they provide on the student website which they discuss in class.

I have recently written exams and was put on Wellbutrin to try and help with my sleeping problem (specifically the fact that I cannot wake up, regardless of what I try). Unfortunately I had horrible side-effects and I couldn't even think straight. I had trouble coming up with words I use in my every day life!

And as my horrible luck would have it my best subject's exam was in the morning at 8 am and the best they could do was let me write at 9 am (keep in mind that the average time I was able to wake up was around midday.)
So the combination of that and the Wellbutrin caused me to fail horribly.

I had 3 modules and passed 1 out of the 3.

Now here's my problem, my father knows nothing of mental illness or anything related to it. And I have not exactly ever been my mother's favourite, along with the fact that my older sister (who is indeed my mother's favourite) has diffused large B-cell lymphoma.

So after hearing how "well" it went with my exams, my parents both told me that I have no one to blame, but myself. And that they want to pull me out of university and have me study through a distance-learning college, that doesn't offer my major at all, while looking for a job. Either that or just starting work. This when I still can't wake up in the mornings anyway.

My older sister has finished her first degree in psychology and realized she couldn't do anything just with that here so she is studying a second degree in chartered accountancy. So I hope you can see why I feel mistreated?

My mother would say that she is so proud of me for keeping at it and that she would never be able to do what I do the one moment, and the next I'm worthless, useless, and just wasting her time. I've had a lot of emotional abuse from my mother since I was in grade 4 (We had moved the year before and for some reason her demeanor towards me just changed and she started favouring my sister above everyone, especially me.), but I've accepted that by now.
But now my parents are putting my future in jeopardy.

So I'm asking for anyone's advice on the matter.
I have tried letting my psychiatrist phone my parents to explain to them the extent of my condition to make them understand, but at the same time my psychiatrist wants to have me admitted to a psychiatric hospital (which I not only feel guilty about because of our financial issues due to my sister's cancer, but I have been there before and I personally think it just makes you more frail to the outside world. You're in a weakened state when you check out and everything is overwhelming.)
Regardless, my parents have thus far ignored her calls anyway.

How can I talk to my parents about this? My father doesn't understand what its like and brushes it off as laziness, doesn't listen and avoids confrontation in general.
And my mother thinks I'm a lazy (excuse my language, but I'm using a direct quote) "*****" and anytime I try to confront or talk to her about anything, especially her treatment of me, she either digresses and picks something else to blame me for, goes on about how she "is the bad guy again" or babbles on without hearing a word I say.

I'm at my wits end, I really don't know what to do anymore.
I have no one else who I can turn to so I have no choice but to make my parents understand what I'm going through, or move away, start working and forget about studying.
And I don't know whether that would ruin my life or better it, but I do have aspirations and unfortunately they require a university degree.

Can anyone help me?
