hey fenora,
I'm so sorry for what you're going through. It sounds like you're living in a very abusive environment, i promise you though it's not your fault.
Your psych had absolutely no justification for saying that, what you went through was extremely serious and should've been treated as such. If you wanted to make a complaint about them, there are processes where you can do that. Even though it's probably the last thing you want to do right now, I think it could be really helpful to try to find someone else. In my experience, counselors are better than psychiatrists for issues around abuse and also more accessible, especially financially.
Depending on where you are, they may be options if you do want to move out of your home. You may be able to rent a room or find a youth hostel and qualify for government assistance. If there's a women's domestic violence helpline in your area, they can usually provide referrals and assistance.
Hope you're doing okay xo
