Dying Inside


Question Posted Friday November 12 2004, 8:28 pm

I’m female, 15, and I hate everything about my family, I’ve always been rejected and pushed aside and neglected, my brother is the center of everyone’s life because he is such an asshole, my parents give him whatever he wants because they can’t stand to hear him rage and scream and say everything bad and hateful he could possibly say. I think they give him such free rein because he has turrets or however the hell you spell it and they just blame his bad behavior on it. They have always been too focused on trying to help my lying, trouble making, hates-the-world, asshole of a brother, so I can never feel anything- they can’t deal with me being sick, or sad, or angry, because they can’t help me, they’ve stopped trying because as soon as their attention would switch over my brother would do something and start screaming and saying shit about me, and how much he hated me and my parents and that everyone else does everything wrong, not him. My parents won’t get him help, they now take their anger at him out on me, they yell and scream at me when I tell them what I think of my brother and how I think they’re doing stuff wrong with him and how he needs help, my dad always punishes him at the wrong time when he’s actually calm, he can never say anything right to my brother, and then they ask me to go give him food or ask him stuff and my brother takes shit out on me. I hate everything about my family, I’m tired of being pushed around and neglected, and they’re making me into a person I hate, what can I do that doesn’t involve anything that costs money? because I’m not that rich. Plz help me, I’m honestly ready to kill myself.

You shouldn't kill yourself for what THEY are doing. It's not right of them. I bet you are a good person, but you should tell them how you feel. Even if it means to yell at them...they HAVE to listen to you. You can talk to a teacher or school councilor. Your older than your brother, he should respect you and your parents. Why does he have the attitude that he has? He should get help one way or the other. You can live with a friend, aunt, or grandparent while that is going on at your house. You can go to school activities to get away, and you should get help. Hope all turns out well for you.

maybe you should sit down with your family and just tell them how you feel..or write them a letter. maybe be a bit nicer to your family..or tell a close family member like an aunt or uncle what is going on in your household and maybe they could help out! hope i helped! mauuuhhh

Considering suicide is the wrong way to turn.Try leaving yourself alone for a while, reflect on your life.If your parents can't help you with your horrible broter then get help at school. Talk to your guidance counsoler he can hlp you with your probblems at home and make you feel better about yourself. Whatever you do do not kill yourself!

First off Do not kill yourself. You have to talk to your parents about this. If you dont being home a lot join a sport or activity that you have to stay after school for. Try getting your parents to go get help for you brother. Good Luck.
Hope I helped!

first thing i can say is def. dont kill yourself...explain to your mom and dad how u feel and tell them that you are always feeling negelted and pushed to the side, even if it means arguing even more... u have to do that if thats what it takes to get your thougths threw there head. And hopefully after a couple days after your explain to them.. they will relize that your right and that maybe they are payin alot more attension to your brother and then they will mayb change how they act towardz you!
if uve already tried this... maybe try thinking about going to councling or something so you have an adult to help you try and solve your family problems!
i hope i helped..IM me on __x Oh ToO cUtE 4u__
nd' lettme know how things are goin ;)

whatever you do, don't kill yourself!!!! try explaining to your parents how you feel and if they don't listen, go to a friend, teacher, or guidance counselor - they can help you through this better than anyone on this site can.

i know that it must be really difficult since your parents are focussing more on helping him then helping you, because your problem probably isn't as obvious as his. The best advice i can give you is to see a school counsoler. They never really helped me but i do know they helped a lot of people and they don't cost any money, wats the worst that could happen if you saw him. i also must say i respect you for trying to find help before commiting suicide. That is the only crime you can commit without being able to seek repentence, so don't do it please. I hope everything works out ok

I'm so sorry- I know how it feels to have a family like that. I'd recommend seeing a guidance counselor at school, or maybe calling a self-help line (google it for a number). Please don't kill yourself though. If for no other reason, then your brother will get what he wants- all the attention. You're the only hope of changing that. All I can say is fight the hardest you can. Hang in there, babe.

klyova90 answered Friday November 12 2004, 9:20 pm:
You shouldn't kill yourself for several reasons. When you grow up, you will be glad you didn't kill yourself, because you wil be so happy with the fantastic life you are living. Another reason is that think about how much your friends would miss you, how much I would miss you. Ok, I guess you have already tried the obvious way of just straight up talking to your parents, I'm guessing that didn't work. You could try enduring it all, although I highly reccomend NOT doing that, because trying to endure a lot of pain can easily break a person, believe me, I would know. Something that you might consider is going to the guidance counselor, not because of the confidentiality thing, because that's a load of bullcrap; no, you would go to the guidance counselor because they would probably call your parents, which might just wake them up enough to realize there is a problem they are not paying enough attention to. My last piece of advice becuase i think this is already too long is that you gather all of your family members in one room, and explain the situation. This will probably end in screams and tears, however it might be the only way to address the situation. Either way, you must decide what to do, your friends can't decide that for you. What they can do, what I can do is to help you and let you know that we will always be there for you, no matter what. I truly hope I helped.
