Mine is slightly different, but i think mine is as bad as yours
but just in different directions.
I had have kinda started working for a living at primary 3, not
even at the age of 9.
My so-call "Dad" or maybe i should call him a monster had
constantly put me down. He had cursed and sweared at me untill
about 3 years ago when i left home for good. Nothing i did is right
to him.
When i told him i want to further my studies, his comments were
"Don't wear such a big hat if your head is not that big"...and bla
bla bla. I was of couse furious with everything he did to me. In
short, professionals had called what he had done to me child
abuse.
Despites that, i went ahead with my further education funding
myself all the way and had passed, i called him to tell him that.
He asked thrice if i was lying.
I didn't call home for almost a year. I am actually still very
angry with him to the point that i don't wish him to see me even i
were to die before him. I am actually angry with everyone in my
family as i feel that they all took me as a moron and made use of
me as much as they could. No words could describe my anger!!!
Thinking of them makes my blood boil..i really mean it.
I kinda can understand how you are feeling...but i don't know what
is the best advise i could give you.
Wish you good luck in whatever you do! Cheers Pal.
