domestic abuse injuries


What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California

My parents ruined my life, my mom is making choices for my life that Im not sure if I want, My dad hit me so hard as a kid I went into a coma and reciveed nerve damage. My mom being mentally unfit to be a parent has manipulated me mentally and emotionally molding my life and thoughts to what is convenient for her. I feel like ive been hidden in an attic my entire life. Now im being kicked out on the street and I feel like i deserve compensation. Theyve done everything to make me beleive i have this odd deoressuin/disorder/ whatever that I was born with out of no where, but theyve cripled me. I am 24years old and only now am I starting to learn how to think and fend for myself. My life has been hell, I can go on for pages and pages but from the sound of it am I entitled to any legal compensation especially since they are throwing me out on the street? Now my mom is making living arrangements for me that will eat up my SSI and she isnt even letting me make decisions for myself. Its hard because I am partially dependant on her, and instead of her helping me find a solution to my arrangements, she is just helping herself find a solution to her arrangements.

No you don't get compensation. Does your mom have power of attorney over you? If so, consult a lawyer to find out how to change it. If not, simply stop letting her make decisions for you. You're an adult, stand up for yourself. If you need mental or medical help, check yourself into a hospital. If your parents didn't teach you how to take care of yourself, then you have to start teaching yourself.
