Quick info about me: I'm agender and haven't gotten diagnosed but have been told repeatedly that I'm neurodivergent and have some physical disabilities.

Last year my friend and I were discussing a class project that related to abuse. I mentioned how my mom used to say things like "go to your room, I don't want to see you for a few hours" or "if you want to cry, I'll give you a reason to cry" to me often and how I typically got hit after those things. He told me it was abusive and started asking about my parents. He dragged me to a teacher and told them, but the teacher said it was fine. Every teacher who's known has never been worried.

Now it's rarely physical. The most physical things recently was my mom pinching my arm because she was mad at the dog.Or her grabbing my leg hard enough to leave marks when we were playing. My parents say they love me often and buy me unnecessary things I want. But they also say I'm faking when I'm in pain - even if I'm barely able to stand. They won't let me get a diagnosis for anything even when I'm told I need it. They constantly yell at me and our dogs despite me saying it makes my head ring and makes my eyes water from pain

Are they abusive? If so, what do I do? I know they were abusive when I was younger but I'm unsure if they still are. I've never questioned if they love me, I know they do so can it even be abuse? Sorry this is so long and if my grammer is bad. My mind has been a mess recently because I found some articles I saved years ago about abuse. I guess I'm just starting to see that the way I'm treated is wrong but I'm still unsure.

Quick info about me: I'm agender and haven't gotten diagnosed but have been told repeatedly that I'm neurodivergent and have some physical disabilities.

When I was younger I struggled with basic things - like reading for example. I got yelled at for making mistakes and my hand/mouth slapped. In public if I was bad - even if it was something minor - my mom would take me to the bathroom and slap me. Multiple times as a kid people would ask me if I needed help or say they'd call the police but nobody ever did.
