I'm 17 and oldest of 2 other sisters and having problems with my dad. We haven't been close since I was a little kid, mainly because my dad has problems.... He explodes when he gets mad, he's annoying, judgemental, and always criticizing me any chance he gets, and lots more. He says I'm lazy because when I'm not at school or working at my job I usually try to catch up on sleep or relax... He says my 14 year old sister does everything and that I do nothing. I try to explain my sleep deprived situation but he doesn't listen to a word and yells over everything I say. I don't talk to him unless it's necessary. He's always lecturing me about how I need to improve myself. He's just always on my case stating how messed up I am and why I can't be more like him, or more like my sister, more like other people. I can't take it. He's always upsetting me and I end up crying and hyperventilating. It's so hard dealing with someone like this when they're supposed to be there to support you. How do I deal with a dad like this? (link)
i know exactly how you feel. its not easy at all. ive been dealing with the same thing but not with my dad, its with his gf. shes always telling me i need to be more like my little sister. it gets soooo old and i end up crying too....the way i deal with it is i listen to music. it helps me a lot. just remember, be who you are. dont let anyone or anything change you. im sure you have a lot of people that love you dearly that you can talk to about this. maybe they can help you with this, like maybe they talk to your dad and try to get him to realize that you two are growing apart and that hes hurting you....i hope i helped you a little
