Should I just give up? What should I do I am lost and hurt?
I don’t know what to do anymore. I’ve always tried to stay positive, but lately, it’s hard. I’m supposed to go to Canada and study, but everything feels pointless because my parents are always pushing me in a direction I don’t want to go. They want me to be a doctor, but that’s not what I want at all. I’ve always been pushed aside when it comes to my studies, ignored and left to do chores while my siblings get the support they need. Now, I don’t even know how I’ll make it in life when they’ve never let me pursue anything I care about. I love music, singing, writing my own songs, and creating melodies. But my parents are completely against it, and every time I try to even think about pursuing music, they shut it down. The only people who understand are my siblings, but even they can’t change anything. I love K-pop, and for the first time, I want to be an idol. I want to create my own name, my own brand, but that dream feels so far away when everything around me tells me it’s impossible. I’ve even thought of a name for myself in the K-pop world, and my siblings encourage me, but it feels like nothing matters when my parents refuse to let me be who I really am. I was homeschooled, barely went to school, and now I’m just stuck. My mom says I can take accelerated schooling, but I’m not sure how any of that will help me get closer to what I truly want. How can I pursue something I love when my own family holds me back? It’s like I have no freedom. I can’t make my own decisions, and even though I’ve found some strength in my friend—who helped me realize my potential and motivated me to keep going—it’s hard to see the point when every day feels like a struggle to be heard. I’ve felt hopeless for so long now. I even thought about giving up, but I’m still here, stuck between what I really want and what everyone else expects from me. I want to be an idol, but how can I do that when I can’t even make my own choices? My parents never cared about what I wanted, and I feel like I’m too lost to find a way out. I don’t know how much longer I can keep going like this, but I don’t know what else to do.

I'm never motivated to do my sport, and I feel dread for trainings. Should I quit?
I've been swimming since I was 6 or 7, and I'm only a little bit better than others my age. I never feel motivated to train, and I constantly miss practice. I only swim the events I know I can do in meets, and I improve very slowly. I don't get much sleep, and I get slightly above average grades. Does anyone have advice on motivation and/or when I should quit?

How can I get over this lack of motiviation?
I know I have interests, there's a section of my room dedicated towards things I truly know I care about. Guitar, Piano, Cameras, microphones for when I sing to record and my drawing tablet. But I can't bring myself to actually get up and practice - or if I do, I give up quickly. People say "you won't always feel like doing what you need too" or "find a job you love so you have a reason to get up everyday" but what if i struggle to even make it to that step? I can't find a reason to get up everyday - I just stare at the instruments and camera collecting dust - and feel guilty. Guilty that I have access to such tools that kids my age would kill to have - yet I can't find any passion, any motivation to try. Younger me loved being on the stage - playing piano, dancing etc. etc. but I just feel like no one is there to see my growth. I feel alone, and that might be why I don't try. I don't know if this is because my parents are unsupportive - practically my dad reminding me that it is "too late" for me to try and learn anything new. He's a harsh man, so maybe that could be a reason? I do have a therapist, if that is important - but it seems like no one understands what I have to say and I've been like this for the past three years. Does anyone else relate to this? How did you get over this hurdle?
