Okay so, let's start with the basics i am a 13 y/o girl who lives with her 16 and 19 y/o sisters and my mum 43y/o and my dad 49y/o see it seems great i live with all my family and it seems great, but its not, you see my dad mum and oldest sister are on some kind of tablets to help with their mental health state my eldest sister doesn't really need it as much as my mum or dad my dad is pretty stable now with the tablets hes on but my mum is not, in fact she has had a relapse and is really not doing well at the moment shes terrible, suicidal, she wants to cause herself pain but she never would because she doesnt want to upset her family, my other sister (16y/o) and i also have mental health issues such as anxiety and unwanted thoughts but my sister is much worse than i am right now. i have dealt with mental health issues with my mum from a young age but am only now starting to understand and its completely tearing me apart, school is so stressful for me and especially as i am picking my GCSE'S this year, tomorrow in fact! i cant tell my mum how i feel because she will worry about me aswell and that will make it worse, but no teachers as school seem to undertsand that either, i have tried to tell my dad but it never works because he doesnt undertsand where i am coming from he hasnt been a 13 y/o girl trying to cope with their suicidal mum, i know i probably sound like you cliche teen but i am honestly not, i couldnt be any different, i get bullied at school aswell on top of everything else, for the way i choose to dress, everyone calls me a hippy or says i look like their Grandparents because i like vintage clothes or because i wear something different to their branded clothes, which i seem to find completely unfair, anyways to the real reason i came on here. So now you sort of know my back story i would really apprieciate help about what has come of mine and my dads relationship, we used to be real close and we used to just sit and talk about everything but recently since my mum has relapsed (she has been like this for 2 months now) my dad has been taking all his stress out on me, or what feels like all his tress. I feel like he especially picks on me over my other two sisters and i have no idea why we have really grown apart and we dint talk as much anymore and this really upsets me because i love my dad so much and i lknow what his past has been like for him and i just feel really bad but we have grown what seems like hate between us and i really hope its only partial and wont last forever but we basically constantly argue now and its kills me i just want everything to go back to normal, im really struggling to cope, i have resorted to self harm and i have suicidal thoughts but everytime i think about it I just feel selfish and i always regret dong self harm the next day i am really trying to stop my hardest i am. i also have anger issues so i get really fired up when me and my dad argue and will punch things, i have hit people at school aswell if they ever say anything to my face, i just need some help on how to handle this all because i am really strugggling to deal with it. i feel guilty whenever i do something for myself such as go into town or go round a friends house or if i just enjoy myself because i just feel bad for leaving her i know she has my dad and sisters but i just feel terrible leaving her i feel like i should be around her constantly, i just constantly feeel like i am adding to her worrying about things she shouldnt be worrying about, i do have a horse though and thats a good escape for a couple of hours whilst im riding but then as soon as i get home it all comes flooding back and i go back to the begginning, and advice would be real grateful, thankyou for listening.

Relationship

Family problems. First off don't ever think of suicide. It may get rid or your problems but it gives then to other people. What you need to do is relax. Ask your dad to teach you a card game or go to the store. Anything he likes. Ask if you guys can do it together and after doing this for awhile you giys may understand eachother better. Talk to a school councilor about your problem or me anytime. If you ever need help just respond a and I will try to help.
ReplyDoing art could relieve stress and keep mind away from sad things, try tricking your family members into doing art with You. Also they might cheer up If You speak about positive things all The Time. Could also recommend this site to them. And when they have cheered up your Life might get bit easier and happier.☺️
ReplyDont worry this wont last forever, theres always a bright side on everything even when it seems impossible, I know you could have depression and anxiety right now because your frustrated but im gonna tell you one thing....Nothing lasts forever, your dad has been facing problems and probably doesnt want to show that hes hurting, i know i cant force you to do this but you could take therapy or talk to someone who listens, dont tell a friend....because you never know if that person is telling someone else, they could be toxic, tell people that you know that has your back at all time like a family member. But dont worry time heals a broken heart, you just have to wait a little more for better results.
