I can't live at home anymore

I used to go to a boarding school but I finished sixth form a month ago. I've been at home for a month, i've been insulted constantly by my mum apart from the 10pm-6am when she sleeps. I've no freedom, i cant go outside, shes confiscated my phone, i cant talk to friends. I need to earn money for uni, i get interviewed online she then barges in telling the interviewer im a really horrible person an stuff. Every time she sees my on my laptop she cuts the wifi. Shes thrown my 200£ earphones in the bin, im not allowed to close the door to my room, Im forced to listen to her shouting at me for 16hrs a day. Im so depressed, I dont think i can endure her until september. I can't live at home anymore, but i dont have any money to live anywhere else.

Could you get a job at Butlins?

Sort your mum out. Next time she takes your sh*t. Take hers.
If you're 18 you can move out, ask the council

That's a good idea, also potentially summer camps- although it might be too short notice, I'm not sure

What about this one, which is in Skegness?

It would work especially well if you wished to go straight to Uni without a break.

Idk if this applies to Durham but some unis let you move in earlier and also stay at your accommodation in the summers between school years. So maybe look into this on results day? In the meantime try to find a summer camp job or similar as others on here have suggested. Good luck!
Contact ChildLine about your situation, the abuse and your desire to leave home.

Anything stopping you from getting a job until you start Uni in Sept?

Get a loan with your studies to pay for accommodation.
Look at websites like Workaway or fruitpicking that offer accommodation or seasonal hospitality jobs that offer live in positions.

Sell some of your personal belongings to get the coachfare or borrow from friends.
