  I appreciate your response, but I don’t competely agree. A meta analysis from 2022 shows that the remission rate of untreated depression within 3 months is only 8 to 18% (source: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34583099/), so I would still say that it is unlikely that you will do better in the short term if you don’t seek treatment.

  This is very likely depression. Go see a specialist. This will unlikely go away by itself.

  you can’t demand people to change, it has to come from within. you can only talk to them and try to change their point of view. that certainly may not work in this case. your issue is not about if your father can live without you, but if you can live without him. if the answer is yes, then spending less time with him may be better for your mental health. also, you don’t need to cut ties immediately completely. you can do that gradually to see if it is the right decision for you.
