Okay so one of the staff told me to clean my room.have shower and do my shore before I go out.I always tell staff after I have a shower that I washed myself and going to dry my hair.the same staff told me that I did not have a shower and the towel was "bone dry" I normally wake up @ 1pm and it takes me about an hour to do my chores and wash myself.The same staff said that I couldn't go to the cinema(even tho it was on my planner) beacuase I woke up to late. how do I stop the staff from using me -force me.

Does this staff member have a supervisor? You could complain to their supervisor. You have rights just like any other human on this earth. Educate yourself about them.

I don’t know about your living situation but obviously it’s a place that has rules/guidelines to follow?

Can you try and switch up the times to shower etc on the schedule or whatever it is “ to where your more likely to stay in track?

How are you being used? Chores are a person's RESPONSIBILITY. If they are forcing you, maybe you have a personal problem with being responsible? I don't know your situation or your living conditions but there are usually rules for living in situations you seem to be describing

I am sorry about staff treating you this way. It sounds to me you feel smothered. Did you agree to do these things? Take a deep breath and decide if you want your room clean for you or for someone else. Going to the cinema is nice and is a cleanly thing to do. Is there a Dr or other person you can talk to - I do not like being forced.

I have spent many years living in structured environments with all kinds of expectations and rules and stuff. What I found worked for me pretty well was, whenever possible, try to clarify UP FRONT what the rules, regulations, and requirements are for, say, in your case, being allowed to go to the cinema. So, if, for example, whoever the person in charge is says, "You cannot go to the cinema unless you get up before noon, are washed up, and clean your room," then you can plan for that the night before and there will be no surprises. So, as has been mentioned, clarify all these expectations in advance. Then, you can be sure to take care of your responsibilities so you can go to the movie. Just my take. Good luck!!
