Question Posted Thursday September 18 2008, 7:01 pm
Sorry about the length. I'm so mad. I feel like i'm trapped in my house. My dad grounded me for 6weeks when i didn't do anything!! I have to get out of this house, i'm constantly crying and when i do something i feel like i'm gonna scream, i'm constantly hittin/kicking the walls to release my anger. I don't know what to do. My mom is being a bitch too. ANd i'm not going to go to my brother or sister. Should i start to go to a theripest? I just failed my bio test and got a c on my math test so yea, i'm stressed about that too. I don't know what to do. I went to the therepist for anger issues, and i think they returned. I need to get some of this anger inside of me out and i'm strating to beome emotional, and i neverr cry. Every now and then i break, because i keep everything bottled up inside till like the last absolote breaking point. I don't know what to do. I need to get out of here. 14/f/fresman highschool
As long as you stay that angry, you are going to stay this unhappy. As long as you are that angry, you will have trouble focusing and getting good grades. As long as you are too angry, you wont be able to talk things out with your parents, and they'll just punish you for what they *think* happened, because you can't get calm enough to explain yourself.
And, you’ll get punished for not expressing your angry correctly, and they’ll be right.
Take a walk. Take a bike ride. (Ask permission first, and calmly state you need some chill time, explain where you are going, and when you’ll be home). Go some place alone and yell and scream and cry. Punch the dirt or trees (not your house! Your parents don’t like that and you wouldn’t either if you had to pay for broken stuff). Then come back, take a long bath and sleep.

Anger comes back anytime in unexpected places and the source of your anger seems to be your family. Since you see them like everyday, that anger will somehow sneak through you and you just have to let it out even though it hurts so much for yourself and others.
It may be very hard to do this but you have to at least try and sort out some of your feelings to your parents. No matter what, your parents will ALWAYS be your parents and you have to come to trust them at some point in your life.
But if this is too much to handle, go to a trusted friend. A friend who'll listen to your pain. Let it all out, because once you've talked to someone who you actually trust (rather than a therapist) you'll feel a sigh of relief.
And if you need to, maybe you can live to a close relatives house for a few days, possibly weeks. Seeing as though your household is almost like a cage to you.
Also in a way, your parents will always love you even if it seems to you that they don't show any affection. But the bond between parents and a child is very strong through matter every event. It's hard to realize it but it is there. Once you grow older, you'll come to see that in some tough situations, you can only turn to your parents to support you. They want what's best for you...even if you think they're not giving enough, they are at least trying to give you something to support you.

Try sitting down talking to your parents about what is bothering you. Don't hold it all in, The more you do the more you build up anger and then suddenly exsplode. If you think you need to see a therapist then maybe that would be the best thing for you. Talk to your parents and let them know that you think you need to see one. Exsplain to them how you are feeling, what is on your mind maybe talk to your father about possibly doing chores around the house instead of having him ground you 6 weeks to the house. Communication is the key.
