Venting conservatorship/forced treatment

[letdown]

i am a pretty young adult, but i am an ADULT. i am in a conservatorship. its hell. i have been IQ tested, i am definitely not intellectually disabled or anything. its all because of my "history of suicidality." honestly what the fuck. i am a person who deserves autonomy. i understand why someone with dementia or an intellectual disability might need a conservatorship. but i work a high paying job for my age, and i had not be hospitalized since living on my own. but when my previous foster guardian found out the job i was working, SHE FUCKING FILED A PETITION TO GET LEGAL CONTROL OVER ME AND MY MONEY.

i was very proud of myself for the money i made, i worked very hard for it. now all my money goes to her, she spend it on whatever the fuck she wants. she got my license taken away because if i have a car, that could be a threat to myself. what a joke. she treats me like a child, she makes me call her "mom" because she is housing me and giving me food.

I AM HOUSING HER AND GIVING HER FOOD. she survives off of MY income. she has the pantry and fridge locked up, not that i care too much about that (i have anorexia). but i want to go to med school, and if im not dead by then, i want to be better. can i even be a doctor with a conservatorship??? probably not.

i have tried to get out of this conservatorship, but her sister went to school with the judge. what can i even do??? all the doctors and therapists said this was a bad idea and wouldnt benefit me. but the judge doesnt listen. my court appointed advocate gave me a fucking build a bear for my birthday. i am an adult man, not some child in foster care anymore. its so infantilizing

i cant hire a lawyer or anything because i dont have access to my money. could i request a different judge or something?? every time i am interviewed by a social worker i tell them what is going on, and they think i am lying. i cant say anything in court, my conservator said she will tell them i threatened to ctb and get me sent to a residential again.

this should be illegal, no functioning adult should have to live like this. i was doing better when i was on my own, i wasnt getting hospitalized, i was very successful at work.

sorry for the rant lmao, i dont really get a chance to open up about this.

Oh my, I have zero advice but this sounds hellish.

My knowledge of conservatories is that I read in the news about Ms Spears and I really really hope someone is able to help you.
Could you receive legalaid, is that a thing?
Best wishes

You have got to get an attorney some way, some how. Hopefully one who will do it pro bono until your funds get freed. Tell the attorney about the judge problem and see if the case can be moved.

The other option is to quit your job and screw her over for money.
