I feel as though my parents are mentally hurting me. I don't know if it's abuse or not but my dad probably figured out how to stay away from that. My dad is okay sometimes except that he sides with my mom even if she's wrong. She will say something extremely rude that I don't believe you should say to a child and if I say something remotely similar it's all me fault. Apparently from my mother I'm a terrible child. I can deal with that since I have for a few years. Now lately they're talking about how I am not good at the sport I do. How other people are better than me while they do the same practices I do. Last year my mother told me, quote on quote, "your getting heavier". I almost become anorexic because of her. I was able to try and forget what she said to keep myself from starving. Now I'm a skinny, semi athletic (I have terrible balance), I have amazing grades in school as in 97 for a total average. So I know running away or even trying to argue back is just silly. But I can't even stay with anyone. My friends are all angels so they would find it weird. All my family is spread out and my closest relative is two states away. I really don't want to talk to the guidance counselor because my mom is a teacher and actually knows her. She went to a teacher party with her once. I just don't know what to do. Running away is dangerous and girls who do just end up dead and that is NOT going to be me. What should I do? I just feel so sad because I guess I'm not good enough or something.
Let her know that her words almost lead to an eating disorder. Tell her that what she has to say influences you and that you would like her to be more careful of how she expresses her thoughts around you. [ LiSaxOBaBii's advice column | Ask LiSaxOBaBii A Question ]
