Quote From: ericalynnOkey hi im erica.Im only 14 years old i live with my mom dad my 2 sisters and 2 brothers.I didnt no where to put this so i am putting it here.My family drives me crazy and i really mean crazy.I've tried killing myself before cause i was tired of living with them.They found out about one time i tried but thats it they don't no about the other times.Wonder"Whats so wrong with your family?" Well i'll answer that question.IThe down fall of our family first started i think when i was 12,Gabby (lilttle sister) was born then a couple days after that my dad got sent to jail for 2 years cause of a probation violation.So we had to pack up and go live in a trailor with only 2 rooms in a trailor park with my grandma.Me my brothers and sisters and mom shared one room in that trailor.With all the stress of Gabby and my dad being in jail everybody was like well annoyed of each other.Me and my mom always argued and she would hit me like punch me in the shoulder,back of my head,back,ect.Then me and my sister always argued and me and my grandma always argued.I thought itd get better when my dad got out of prison but it didnt it got worse.Me,mom,sister,and grandma still argued all the time and my mom and dad always argued.Well now it still isn't much better.
-We moved out the trailor park to NC and got a house.
-My older sister still lives with us and shes 19 i think or 20
-My dads an alcholic and all he does is drink
-Gabby well is 2 and out of control and always crys and if she dont get her way she hits bites ect
-Gabby says almost ever cuss word known to man
-Me and my mom still argue
-Me and my sister still argue
It just annoying living with these people i mean my bro Will aint that bad but he can get his temper and anger problems.O yea
-Mom=anger problems,always screaming or complaining
-Dad=well u no alcohoolic with anger problems
-Older sister=anger problems,big mouth,and pregant
-Brother Will=Can get anger moods but hes pretty much kool
-Older brother Steve=Dont live with us now my mom kicked him out..he was the only one of my family i rele never have argued or got in a fight with
Me=ill tell the truth yea i got anger problems when someone has an atittude with me
Well yea thats kinda a review of my live....and well some issues that need to be handled but i no my parents wont lisen to me if i bring it up theyd deny everything and all our problems...
baby,
I'm going to callyou that because my children are all my babies no matter how old they get and like you I have a 14 year old who tried to cut herself. By the way my children are 19, 17, 14 and12 years old. I don't know if you read any of my other messages but if you can find it please read it. I explain alot of what my children are going through. But getting back to you.
I use to work at an elementary school and learned alot about children. I'll be on this message board if youever need to talk, but i can't be there for you in person and you need someone there for you to see. I totally wish I could be there in person just to hold you and tell you everything will be okay. Sweetie please talk to one of your councelors at school and see if you can get help through school. I'm going to tell you that hurting yourself is not the answer. I know you may think it is but it's not. I tried to do it before and thought of my kids and I wasn't going to leave them behind to be walked allover by the same people that did it to me. I got into counceling and I got stronger for me and my children. My brother committed suicide and left behind a daughter that was 8 yrs at the time. Then I had a neighbor that hung himself because of his mothers drug use and stuff. i didn't know that he was going through any of this because he never said anything. This is your first step tobecoming stronger. TELLING YOUR STORY. Tell any one that you can trust and believe me they'll help you get through this and become stronger. Please sweetie hang in there and I'm here to let off steam when youneed to.
Now to deal with your family... Let me see... Is there anywhere where you can spend time to yourself to write in a journal? if yes then start one. Write things that annoy you and things that make you so mad. and things that make you happy. sometimes just lettingit out of your system is better than bundleing it up inside. That's what make you think about harming yurself, It seems like no one in your family is willing to listen to you so youneed to listen to your self and take action for your sanity. You can't change people who doesn't want to change you can only change yourself. So work on you. Okay, Please let me know what your doing and stuff. please I'm worried about you.
Aloha, god bless you and take care of you.
LOTS OF LOVE: brokeninside
