Go and live with a friend or family friend you trust and who will understand your problems till you can settle down for yourself.

It would be a good idea to speak with a counselor during this period.

Sanjivini in Qutub Institutional Area is a very good NGO that offers free counselling for people of all age groups.

You can find the CAW Cell in your are with a quick google search. If the situation at your home is getting violent or abusive then you may call them.

First, I appreciate that you have come forward with your problem as many in your position are dissuaded from doing so. From what I can gather from your question, your parents have started isolating you because of some incident because of which your are missing out on academic opportunities. As an adult, you cannot disown your parents under the Laws in India. The Law often wrongly presumes that you are now self-dependent and therefore capable of acting upon your wishes. In reality that is difficult to do as I am assuming that you need your parents for financial support. Why don't you approach a counselor or reach out to one of the several NGOs that are actively involved in issues concerning the empowerment of women. If you are having difficulty identifying such organizations, we are here to help. However, if you are being physically assaulted or abused in your home, I would urge you to approach the Crimes Against Women Cell in your area. They are extremely prompt in their response. If this is the case, identify a family friend or a relative you can trust and stay with if need be. I do hope your situation is resolved soon.

Hi, You can seek help from Women's Commission, Police and NGO's. The only thing which may affect adversely is that your family may have to suffer some public embarrassment. But they have provision for counselling of parents too.
