    Wow that anger brings back memories. Its totally valid for you to feel that way. Please speak with your counselor hun. You need desperately to be set up with a case worker called a CASA who will then stay with you and help you find aid and also with your future, hopes, and dreams. They will be your friend, your advocate, and hopefully help you find a way to make sure you have every resource possible to enable you to further your education and make your dreams come true. I know that it is not the same as having a family who loves you, but its better than being put out into the street with little more than a high school education and have to work much harder than you need to. Honey you are a smart girl, a pretty one too. Don't let anyone say otherwise. I know because I still have my own mothers voice in my head telling me how stupid and ugly I am and it was the total opposite that was the truth. She has some narcissistic illness that she felt competition with me and I was a threat to her rather than her being a mother wanting the best for me or better than what she had as normal parents like myself do. Much love sweetheart. Its too bad we are not able to band together and be a big family.

    Have you tried self meditation or acceptance of things that make you angry?

    Wow! The world is so full of people who are hurting. I found a friend who I can talk to when I feel hurt. His name is Jesus.

    I will remember you in my prays.

    Okay.. I thought since you commented on a story of mine, similar to this one, that I would do the same.



    You have no idea how much I can relate to you. Even with the smallest idea of WoW, which I play as well. The flashbacks. The winning and losing at the same time. Everything about the guy.. I can't even start to say how much you are similar to my thinking. YET! You comment on mine that I'm acting like a spoiled brat, which wasn't true. I was doing the same as you are here.



    Though I hope the cutting stopped, that's not a good thing.



    But, listen, I'm not going to leave a harsh comment, as you did on mine.



    You are beautiful, I can see that. And you have someone who loves you. And, trust me, I know that love, and it will last.



    But, I also know the trials and tribulations of having a sister, though mine is younger. She's wished me dead plenty. I can tell she doesn't care. But we are completely different.



    My point: I prefer not to be judged by someone so similar to me. As you only say the same about yourself. I as the older child, you were the younger, that is one of the few differences, which may be why we are different in a small way. Still. If you want to judge me, get to know me.



    Another difference is, that I basically got over my past. Was hard, but I did. And you can't give up. I almost did multiple times. And, really, another difference is, my crap happened when I was too young to understand what was going on, you were old enough to understand.



    Don't get me wrong. I'm just trying to get you to understand me.



    I do wish you luck in your life. And, truly, your family shouldn't decide who you love. Just love him, and cherish him. I hope you two are happy together.

    i truly like being alone. being in love and having someone to share life with would be awesome, yes. but alone is fine, as well. and i am damned proud of everything i do now and have done--alone.

    I too find my thoughts turning often towards the past far more often than I care for. It isn't hard to say there are things I regret greatly and wish I had a second chance to change. I could no sooner ignore or forget the past than I could what's going on around me, and it makes me despair and wonder why I was even born.



    What's worse is when you look at your accomplishments and they mean nothing to you. When you can't even look at what you've created with your own hands and feel any pride or satisfaction it really makes you question your worth. Especially when all you really want is someone standing by your side and nothing else.



    So long as you have someone you can share your thoughts with you're not alone in your struggles.



    I hope fate is kind and you can share all your days with your special person. Just make sure your 100% honest and open to him.

    i agree with all of the above comments! :)



    please do not feel singled-out or damned bcuz of having idiots-for-family...it happens, a LOT, so it's not your fault and please don't let shame or guilt get to you. many times kids do not want to reach out for help bcuz they still feel loyalty and thus keep a 'code of silence' about their family, feeling thats the honorable, true thing to do and screw helping themselves, instead. please love and respect yourself always. i wish someone had told me to--that took me too long to learn on my own.



    thanx for sharing about your boyfriend with us. he sounds really cool and he is lucky to have you.



    u are a very deep thinker. i hope u are studying philosophy--u will likely write and create some new ones! i like how u talked of pondering winning and losing at the same time, ---but the winning is not a happy tale to tell. i can wrap my head around that. i am curious, tho---why is the winning tale sad? what's ur take on that? mine is that people usually lament the one that got away--losing--and are then discontent with winning, or what they chose as winning. you are obviously very good at getting people thinking! keep it up!!

    It really bothers and concerns me to see someone so young yet so full of anger and rage. I'm not saying it's not deserved, but you really need some way to vent or channel all that energy in a positive way! Can you get involved in some kind of sports, anything, to help you release some of that energy? Is there anyone you can talk to at school -- a teacher, counselor, coach -- who could help you with your personal needs (deoderant, shampoo)? Don't you have a caseworker or socialworker that you can contact about your needs? I have no idea where you are, but if a teacher could contact CPS, maybe you could get some counseling or at least someone to look into YOUR situation. Doesn't sound like your father is following the rules at all. There should be someone checking up on him, but there should be some help for the family also. School will be out soon, if not already, and you won't have access to that for a while. Is there a youth center or even a church nearby, where you could talk to someone? You should have had free lunches at least. Some places are offering something similar at nearby recreation cenetrs this summer b/c of the economy. Please try to check these out and get some help for YOU soon!
