My disabilities and my parents.

First post on here, but can someone help me with this problem.
I live with my stepdad and he doesn’t understand my disabilities, which leaves me in a position where I struggle to answer back on the simplest questions and then I get blamed for not answering.
I get blamed because I can’t handle my money and I can’t learn certain things. Like I’m struggling to keep myself falling into depression and I have no idea what to do to help him understand.

Do you have a support worker or anyone you can talk to?
