i didn't know where abouts to post this but was hoping if i could get some advice.

i live in a family where my parents are emotionally abusive on a daily basis and sometimes if i tend to rebel there is physical abuse.
i am so sick of it, i want to move out but don't know where to go.
i can live with relatives coz they would just send me back, and i stay over my friends coz i dont want to burden their families.
i recently told my bf about what happens and he suggested we could live in together somewhere but it would be so hard for both of us coz we just work part time and dont earn much and his family would hate me if they find out their son would live with his gf before marriage (asian families -_-). I know its going to sound pathetic that being 20 i have suffered and am suffering but to find accomodation, study at uni and work seems near impossible and really hard

so has anyone been in this situation?
what would you guys suggest?

Do your relatives know that you are abused?

heaps of swearing, threats, being blamed for things that isn't even my fault etc.,
nahh my relatives don't know and even if they do they would take my parents side, my family is good at putting on a 'happy/loving family' mask.

You should contact Life Line (13 11 14) and get some professional advice. I'm sure there would be some services that you could access to help you get out of that environment. As your home situation is intollerable and causing emotional/physical harm you should definitely qualify for youth allowance.
