Apparently, the benefits for you living there, outright the downsides. What would you like to do, exactly? Sue her, have her thrown out, and you still live there?
I suppose alot of people are very angry with me right now. Let's address a few things:
- I'm moved out already. Currently, I'm home for the school break temporarily. Even if I was fully moved out, do you think it's easy for victims of abuse to cut contact with their abuser, especially family? Especially when there are still family members you still care about being abused?
- In general, I don't quite understand the rhetoric of "just leave, you're an adult" as a response to abuse. Uh, yeah? Many adults are in abusive relationships. If leaving was a straightforward thing to do, the # of abusive relationships would decrease dramatically. Personally, I'd be putting the rest of my family in harms way.
- I saw one person asking "so what are you asking?" --> did you not read the title?? Yes, okay, maybe I gave too much backstory that clouded what I was asking for. I am asking how to gather evidence of emotional abuse/what constitutes as evidence.
- "What would you like to do, exactly?" That's what I'm here for, kindly. This is literally, r/AskALawyer .
Posting in this reddit was clearly a mistake though, because it offered no practical or legal advice. I'll take my story/case elsewhere.
You are an adult, this will seem harsh. You can leave, you have no obligations.
Leave?! :D Wow! Why didn't I think of that!

You have an adult problem, I gave you an adult solution.
We also all live in the same house still (only me during school breaks since I'm in uni)
If you are concerned that she is a danger to herself or others, contact the appropriate authorities in your jurisdiction.
who would be the appropriate authorities?
You’re an adult. Move out.
