Am I overreacting?

Asked by dogkittycat (916) January 7th, 2014 from iPhone

My parents are driving me insane, I am 20 years old and pay for my own college education w/o help and even help my parents out financially or by coming home to do home repairs. They refuse to hand over my passport(which I paid for) my ssn card, birth certificate and won’t allow me to get my license. They also believe they have the right to dictate where I can and can go for medical school, and believe that I can be dropped off and picked up from med school by my dad. I am sorry but this is ridiculous, I have never given my parents a reason to not trust me and I do value family a lot but they are holding me back and violating my rights as a legal adult. They also demand that while I am at school ( I live on campus but its less than an hour away from home) that I text them at least twice a day. I am getting so fed up with them, I certainly don’t want to break ties with my family as I don’t really have anyone else family wise but things are only getting worse. I still can’t hang out with friends unless my mom has their parents numbers to check. I don’t think I am overreacting but I would love some feedback and perhaps some ideas of what I can do. Keep in mind it’s nearly impossible to have a conversation with my parents unless you are agreeing with them. I stood up to them once and my existence was ignored for two weeks.
