So I have a bit of a conundrum
-Graduated high school in the spring
-Forced to attend community college
-Parents won't allow me to take semesters off to save for the rest of college
-Parents aren't paying for any college expenses and I'm scared of drowning in debt
-I do well academically but I hate being stuck at a desk and each semester of school sends me into an anxiety fueled depression(I suffer with anxiety and depression regularly)
-I'm too poor to move out and I can't get a full time job as long as I'm living at home due to my mother's fear of me dropping out(except part time work during summers and weekends)
I feel trapped. Any advice?

Do what you want. If all they're doing is putting pressure on you and you think you can get an address, a phone line, and food without them, then go do it. You'll be ok without mommy and daddy.
You're a free man, but not when you're living on their dime

im not sure you are thinking about your own situation accurately.
if they arent paying for college they cant force you to go. just go get a job. if you can get a weekend and summer job you can save up and at the very latest, get your own place by september of 2016.
get a summer job, and by end of summer you'll be able to pay for it.
you can also get a regular day job and just tell them you are going to school. if they dont pay or anythign they wont really know

Just confronted my parents again. They threatened to kick me out of the house if they find out that I'm working full time instead of finishing college.

And they're trying to get me to quit my weekend job due to it "possibly distracting me from community college"

why would you tell them your plan? if ur not a stupid twat and telling them stuff you could easily get a job and they'd never notice. you'd just have to keep your schedule consistent.

so? dont quit. as long as you bring home a good report card they shouldnt bitch out. start saving money, and talk to any friends you have about possibly crashing with them while you save money since you already got a job it shouldnt take long.
