My whole family is broken. We're all depressed as shit. My dad signed something he thought was something else without looking at it. We almost lost everything because of that. My parents were anxious, my mom couldn't keep food down, and I started having panic attacks again. It's over now, and we're okay financially now. But my parents aren't talking to each other, my mom is always in her room, and my dad has been sleeping since three. He hasn't eaten or anything. My mom won't talk to a therapist but she talks to me even though I don't wanna hear it.

TL;DR: I don't have anyone to talk to. My whole family is depressed. I'm calling a therapist for myself tomorrow morning, but until then...

Well it's a day after you posted this. How are you feeling after calling the therapist?

I didn't actually get a chance to call, and why is my text saying 'the attacker' instead of a 'therapist?" Anyway, I'm frankly confused by everything. My parents are acting like nothin's wrong. It's like a default setting or something, and I don't know if it's because Christmas is coming up or what. I'm going to make our secret family recipe of chex mix, probably my apple pie, and cookies. I know my mom wants holiday cheer, and they don't talk about what's going on with them. It's not really my business, you know? But my mom talks to me about everything because she doesn't have any friends. I don't want to hear it, but does she care? Nope.

Fuck, I wish I could find a fucking JOB so I could move the hell out already.

Speaking as a young adult who has a steady job and is STILL living with parents, you might start by determining what will make you happy or content in the short term that you can get with a job, and aim for that first. Too many of my friends decided to hightail it out of their parents' homes as soon as they had a job and they're barely making it if they haven't already moved back in with their parents.

In my case, I'm saving to visit family out of the country as well as a separate savings account for the 'escape the family home' fund.

It is very tough to deal with not having a family support system and stable family. I really hope your therapist can help you out. I know that joining group therapy sessions often help people go through family troubles like the one(s) you described.
