Depressed teens & broken homes

When your parents don't know how to deal with your "issues" and problems, so they push you away. It does not fix things, it usually makes them worse. The solution is not to kick them out of the house, especially if they don't have anywhere to go and no one to turn to.

I hope we can learn from the mistakes our parents have made.

my mums bf was inappropriate to me at 14/15. i told my mum and well i guess she loves her bf more than me. i couldnt handle that. i became anorexic, self harming, anxious ect. i moved out at 16/17. my mother had more babies to him. i needed to move back in. they gave away my room to my half brother. repainted it and everything. i would sleep on the floor like a dog. i wish she knew how she made me feel. i've moved out now and i have cut off contact.

Wow, I think it's good that you moved out and cut off contact in the end. Sometimes I think that would be the best for me and yet my parents have a hold over me which hasn't allowed me to really get out from under them. I am sorry you went through so much but I hope you have or can overcome everything. Take care :)

hey im 14 and when i was about 12 i got bullied for yr but i got tht sorted out cuz at the end i told my mum but i dont think i've fully recovered becuz still in me im really depressed but i don't now who to talk to and sometimes i think suicides the only way out so i dnt now what to do can anyone suggest ways for me to get help becuz at the moment the only things actually stopping me commiting suicide is my mum mainly but my family and best friend.

can u plz suggest ways for me to get help

Well, depression does take a while to overcome, even if you have sorted your life out it can still linger on, a lot of people need other things to help them, such as counseling or medicine (etc). It's hard not having anyone to talk to, but suicide is never the answer, I am glad you have reasons for not doing it. Just focus on those reasons and in the meantime maybe talk to your mom about counseling and see what she says? It's a good way to get your feelings out. Take care. :)

what i'm trying to get at is you can't blame yourself. parents are people too,and its pretty likely that if you have problems its in your genes... maybe this is why so many kids with mental issues have parents that cant seem to handle it.

i mean, my parents stole about 25 grand from me-i could have sued them easily. but i dont think its worth the personal pain to seek revenge, its so much healthier to let it slide.

at least your parents still talk to you :) thats something

[xsullengirlx]

You are right, parents are people too and I am sure they have their own shit to deal with, in fact I am sure of it. I may have gotten the short end of the stick, but I wish I could have handled myself a bit better, and that my parents would have been more intuitive about how their behavior affected my outcome. It is odd how similar situations can be. I guess you really can find anything on the internet, huh?

I'm 12.I haven't felt comfortable in my own home since i was 9.My parents started fighting more after i was bron.My mom's a druggie and my dad's an alcoholic.My brother who's 17 doesn't care about me.He says i'm a problem and useless.The only person that cares about me is my oldest brother,but I only see him every few months.I self injure.I have since I was 10.I know I've made mistakes,but im just a kid.We all screw up,why can't my parents just realize that?

I'm 12and I feel like that.I've done stupid stuff never drugs or pills but some self injury I don't anymore but it's hard to think back and be like wow the things that have gone on in my life and I think about a better way to have solved my problem. I havent gotten help from therapists simply because I dont want any. Thanks for the video for once I feel like I am not the only one going through this. Best of lunch. Xo

i have only have one thought on this: -cries-

[dawgsmycopilot]

@BlueRoseCrimson Yeah we do. All parents were people long before we were parents. We know we have this role thrust on us by society and we have your entire futures in our hands and it sucks ass because we know no matter what we do we will fuck up. Because we are just people too. We'd love to just let you be. But how? Society demands that educate you, dress you to a certain standard, make you publicly presentable. We never signed up to be Nazis.

I have the same exact top as you do. I got it at playto's closet. Weird.
