        TLDR; I’m 17M, 10th grade, height is around 5’8 and weight is around 35kgs (severely underweight). I havent been to school since a year and out of my house since 9 months atleast. Feel like if i call police atleast i’ll be able to go to school.

        I’m still in 10th grade because my parents put me in school a year late and then again in between school they made me repeat another year because they couldnt afford the fees.

        I’m underweight probably because i barely eat 2 times a day, my sleep schedule is fucked up. Sometimes i sleep at 6am, 8 am, 2pm, etc.

        Haven’t been to school because my parents couldnt pay the fees and now they aren’t even letting me join gov school or give exam via NIOS. They are planning on making me repeat another year but i just cant, i feel dying would be a better choice for me rn.

        Haven’t been outside my house because my school friends live nearby and i dont want to be seen by them.

        My parents genuinely dont give a fuck especially my mother. I’ve told her numerous times i feel like ki**ing myself but the smugness on her face never disappeared. She’s extremely manipulative.

        We can afford a normal or a government school but they want to keep me in private cuz they like to show off around relatives when in reality we’re broke because of their poor financial decisions.

        I genuinely don’t know what life’s like outside. I’ve missed all my school trips, farewells, competitions, other events, etc. I don’t have any friend cuz I’ve ghosted everyone.

        Sorry if this is a little vague but i couldnt write everything without breaking down or doxxing myself. Please help me out here. I just need a way to not repeat another year, other stuff i think i can recover with enough time.

          Why don’t you contact your teachers? And make them aware of your plight?

                  Try dude. Don’t make assumptions. At least they can intervene and make parents let you attempt 10th through NIOS.

                  Go out and walk for the entire day and no phone. Just think about what things you can start with.

                              Hey buddy ,I’m sorry for you what you are going thru and it’s completely understandable to feel rage , frustration the fucking FOMO, all the lost time the memories that could’ve been,your teenage life i understand I went thru a similar situation but don’t let this rage , hate and sadness guide your decisions or your present , you need to completely accept these were the cards you were dealt ik sometimes it hurts really bad to see yourself fighting for the most basic things , the worst one is the time you keep loosing while everything progresses rapidly around you don’t let that happen, in life there’s two things in which 1000% you have no choice about 1) your birth 2)who gives u birth….it seems unfair ik but that mindset is not gonna help you at all….first accept, don’t keep fighting don’t keep comparing …. you have internet , you have good English soo start getting lost in rabbit holes of the cybersecurity/programming world , it’s fascinating asf and that’s probably one of the fields (or the only field ik off) that doesn’t give a fuck about your degrees and or gaps or whatever as long as your good and dude also you are really young there’s a lots ahead of you don’t worry too much and don’t fomo , you can reach out to me and talk ,you’ve got a friend in me

                                1. Fix your daily routine and avoid Reddit & Social media

                                2. Wake up early, warm up in sunlight and do Suryanamaskars (they have magical ability to unlock and charge your internal energy esp solar plexus).

                                Do for a week and tell me how it feels.

                                3. Follow that with workouts; body weight – push ups pull ups etc. calisthenics.

                                4. Fixed cycle – Eat on time. Solar noon & Solar sunset.

                                5. Engage in productive reading; books or areas of positive interest. Beyond academia.

                                If you an call out your mother as manipulative that means something is seriously wrong.

                                Once you turn 18 you can leave home if you want to and build life for yourself. You will eventually find what’s good for you.

                                be strong.

                                    Running away or killing yourself is not gonna help.

                                    Find a mature adult who understands your situation. Some relative, supportive teacher, neighbour or someone who can make your parents understand that nios or govt school is better than sitting idle

                                      I feel really sorry for you son. What your parents are doing is deplorable and an offence under Section 75 of the Indian Penal Code. If possible, go to the police station of your area and ask for assistance. It is unlikely that they would register an FIR, but they might threaten and shame your parents into improving their behavior.

                                      You may also try making a complaint to National Commission for Protection of Child Rights [https://ncpcr.gov.in/ebaalnidan/](https://ncpcr.gov.in/ebaalnidan/)

                                      Section 75. Punishment for cruelty to child. Whoever, having the actual charge of, or control over, a child, assaults, abandons, abuses, exposes or wilfully neglects the child or causes or procures the child to be assaulted, abandoned, abused, exposed or neglected in a manner likely to cause such child unnecessary mental or physical suffering, shall be punishable with imprisonment for a term which may extend to three years or with fine of one lakh rupees or with both:

                                          Call the police and connect with an NGO. And do this ASAP before you turn 18.

                                                they choose nuclear life away from grand parents, the smugness comes from the rights given to women to abuse in laws and husbands. now there will millions of under weight under nutrition childrens, and if you do complain, the mother will file false harassment and abuse of her dignity case.

                                                This is not the exception, this is the norm in all those high rise buildings. This is waht happens when the law makers of this country make un healthy laws like 498a which forces grand parents to stay away at all costs, which forces husband to shut their mouth/

                                                        The things that people have said are based on someone else helping you if someone else help you that is great first try that but if no one help you then understand that internet is there with you so try to reach out to the best guy that you know it can be anyone your friends brother or any uncle anyone tell them that I want to work with you I know your age is not right but in this world people are so busy with their problems that they might not give a dam about your problem the only way you can help yourself by helping them so let’s see you know an uncle who is doing something ask him how can you help him and how much will he pay explain him the situation that you are in and if you feel that you are being exploited then don’t go to them but if you are not exploited and if you learn that trade and you learn the skill set that you need then that will help you in a long way all of this I am saying considering that what you are saying is absolutely right sometimes we are very immature at your age and we tend to not understand the bigger picture so don’t lie in case if you are doing that just a cautious advice from someone who is elder than you

                                                              This is another nuclear option. Get fit and get out.

                                                              It will still require some initiative from him as I’ve outlined above.

                                                                  Please don’t do anything stupid, running away or killing yourself isn’t the right solution and I’m not saying based on morality, I’m saying this with experience. I wasn’t even able to reach out to authorities as my parents are higher rank officers in government and no one would do anything against them and it just made my parents beat me up more. I was bed ridden for three years due to my mental health issues, my parents still didn’t budge an eye. I have attempted suicide multiple times. And everytime they make it look like that I’m the one who’s torturing them. Please don’t sit and tolerate it, also talk to your parents calmly, and even if they disregard your complaints atleast ask for a therapist. You might have multiple mental issues due to years of trauma and avoiding treatment will just make it worse. I avoided it. I ended up losing everything, you need to get mentally strong, before you do anything talk to a therapist, then a trusted person for legal advice. Be 100% sure before making a move. You don’t know what world thinks about you or what narrative your parents provided to them, your complaint will be suspended if they somehow prove that you’re the problem.

Lot of hotels, restaurants etc hire completely freshers also and even provide food and accommodation. Your English is decent. You will get some or the other opportunity for sure. Good luck.
