Syping Parents

My parent are checking on everything I do. I'm 19 years old. I love partying but I also know my limits and I am studying hard. My uni is 5 hours away from home. Yet, my dad is spying on everything that I do and he calls me and threatens me. I'm already having a hard time at uni. I can't mix around with most people. I have a few senior friends who i enjoy hanging out with and they are all guys. I'm a girl btw. But my parents are not happy with this and they're assuming that I sleep with all those guys. I don't know what to do. Because of all that they know, I'm finding it hard to trust anyone here. Everytime my dad sends me this threatening messages and when he calls, i get really depressed. I'm feeling very lonely, I cant trust anyone, and i'm having suicidal thoughts. And on top of that, because of all this problems, i have been getting bad panic attacks and anxiety. I don't know how to deal with my parents when I go home next (which is 2 weeks from now). I just want to avoid them. I love them but somehow I feel like all i have been doing is disappointing them.

Try explaining that they're giving u pressure or u could just move in with with a nice relative or (girl) friend that u trust.
I'm in grade 5 so sometimes I get weird ideas.

I know it might be a hard step to take but maybe look into getting a temporary restraining order.  Threatening is NOT acceptable behavior.  You're 19, and even if you were sleeping with those guys, it would not be their business.  You need to be able to focus on your studies, and if they're threatening you, then that's detracting from it.
