Does anyone know if this is legal?
I feel like I'm about to go into a legal lawsuit against my own father at this point.
There's no documentation either of an agreement for rental payment.
I feel like I might need to tag @boozybadger.bsky.social for this.

Laws on that are very state specific. You should look into low cost legal services that may be offered by your state or local bar.
We have quite good tenancy laws here, but the buck stops with family.
But I can't speak for where the OP lives, but generally there are few protections for adult children of the property owner as they are not legally tenants

Oahu has most of the resources for unsurprising reasons. (I'm on Oahu.) But there are some options in every county.
Happy Holidays to you all!
- Your dad's probably an asshole, but he's also concerned about you, and he's tired of putting up with your behavior,
and doesn't legally need to give you a home.
- You probably DO need to get your ADHD treated, and it'll make your life a lot better.
