I live with my grandparents and they insult and yell at me every day. They say I am not good enough. They are really strict on my school work which really stresses me out. They send me empty treats. They insult every single friend of mine which causes me to lose those friendships. They call me dumb and stupid daily. I also have a job which they interfere me with that too. I work so hard to please them but they don't appreciate anything I do. What can I do?
