College is killing me and I don't know what to do!?

I've been attending community college for a semester and a half and I'm ready to blow my brains out. Not literally blow my brains out, but that's what it feels like. I haven't ever been comfortable talking to my parents so I always just do what they say to avoid confrontation. I'm going to college for their benefit. I swore to myself I'd never go back to school after I graduated high school, and I hate myself for even going. My parents are paying for it, which makes me feel like I have to see it all the way through. I should be grateful that I have the opportunity but I just want it to be over. I constantly check the schedule for any opportunity to miss class. The bottom line is that I am just unhappy. Nothing seems to lift my spirits anymore, and I can't talk to my parents about it for risk of disappointment. I missed the date to drop classes with refund, so if I drop classes now I will just be wasting my parents money. It feels like I have the weight of the world on my shoulders.

2 years to get an associates doesn't seem like much to be worried about, but I am miserable so my nightmare is neverending. I am stressed and borderline depressed and I just don't know what to do.

Advice would be nice, but please don't give me the "everybody goes through it" or "you need to adjust" because I've heard that stuff before.

Thanks in advance
Michael Jack
