Also please don't say anything mean about droping out of school. I had a really bad day.

Confront him about how you feel about him. Chances are, when you confront him, he'll tell you how much he DOES care about you. Men have a hard time about showing emotions. So maybe he IS proud of you and just can't show it.
You should go back to High School and get your GED. You never know what you can accomplish. You could be a doctor or a lawyer, or even an enterpreneur. Or you could be a professional speller, which I am not, hence I am 70% sure I spelled "enterpreneur" wrong.
God will help you through this if you just believe in Him. I know you might be like, "God?" but it's true. If you want to talk more about this subject, please email me.

You need to sit down and talk with your dad. Tell him how your feel. It's YOUR life not his! You have the right to do whatever you want!
You'll be sent to mental hospital and locked up. Do you want that?
Yes? Ok enjoy your forced drugs
No? Quit being harsh on yourself, tell yourself nice things and enjoy life.
You should tell this to your father and try to reason with him. Good luck.
Two words: move out. Then come back and try to reason through it. Give it "chill time".
Sounds like your Dad wants you to be your best! He's angry that you are not living up to your potential. You're 19 now... take a time warp to twenty years from now..... Your Dad wants to see you do your more with yourself. You need to get more self-centered so you have a great future! This world is tough and you have to learn to look out for yourself. The best way to do that is to complete your education so you're not stuck in a rut when you are 40.
Sit down and talk to your Dad. Tell him how he affects you, but in the same token, don't look for his approval. You are a young adult now and don't need his permission to do anything. Be proud of yourself. I would say also try to get your GED, it is proven to help get yourself a better paying job. It can only help. Your probably is disappointed in himself and only lets his frustrations be apparent to you. Maybe he feels like he failed himself, but not seeing his daughter complete schooling. I know i would feel disappointed if I let my child not complete something that is important. But that is just an edcuated guess. Try talking to him that is a start
