Yes, my parents know what my brother did. This has been going on for several years. They just don't care. What's a problem to me does not appear to be a problem to them. My opinions on the matter are entirely negligible.

I feel as though I might be at that point where I'm ready to admit that I need help; however, it seems like getting help is not really possible for me at this time. My high school is located in a rural area and does not even employ a counselor (I asked). What I really need is a "band-aid" to get me though the next couple of months without landing in the psychiatric ward. I just want to graduate high school and be able to move out for college. That way, I could have access to some counseling and would be removed from this situation. But all these feelings are getting in the way and it's making school intolerable. I keep worrying that I might not graduate if I don't get my act together...
