It was awful, I just wanted to get home, to get to my room and cry all that I could. It felt worse, cause I felt like she wasn’t hearing what I was saying, I wanted to change schools and she kept saying “you have to endure, it’s just a few more years and then you don’t have to see them again” but this was hell to me. I don’t think I ever spoke to my father about this, I think he knew, he saw me crying but he didn’t come to me to ask me anything.

-wow yo, its neglectful for a parent to see you crying like that and blow it off as something you just need to deal with; even if there was a reason they couldn't switch schools for you, you should at the very least feel at the end of the day like they listened to you.


You said:
When your mom said you had to endure, you said it was hell for you-you remember what were you thinking about your mom after she told that to you? Where were you in the house when you tod, her, what was she doing? I'm hoping to help you really go back to that time, I feel you suffered at such a great level from this incident;

I remember to think that she didn’t understand what I was going through, that she was cold to “ignore” my appealing because I needed her, I wasn’t young enough to make decisions or to do things by my own hands, I needed someone that could tell me that everything was going to be ok that I didn’t have to endure all of that anymore.

I'm sorry that she wasn't there for you in that time-was this a patern for your mom? You needed her and she wasn't there? Sounds like you may have encountered that if your mom had depression;

It’s funny, you would think that someone who suffers from depression (my mom) would understand the pain, the crises, but when I say to her that I need to see a psychologist see says to me that I don’t have issues that bring me down

o0; man, pain is pain-how is pain comparable if pain is what you're feeling?!

and that other people have worst things they deal with and sometimes even ask me “why?” even thought she has seen me at my worst even thought she took me to hospital when I tried suicide with pills. I’m sorry for writing such a huge text but this as been here for so long (god I’m crying).

I think it's good to get it out; you should have been able to see a psychologist way before it went all the way down to you ending up in the hospital-you shouldn't have had to ask at all; did your mom see a psychologist for her depression?

I was in my room, I think she heard my screaming’s from crying and then entered the room. I don’t know what she was doing because I entered my house and go directly to my bed.

And then your mom just ended up telling you that you had to endure?

Your father saw you crying?

That time specifically no, I think he was working, but at other times I think he did or my mom told him, my mom tells him everything that happens to me, because honestly I don’t.

What would happen if you went to your dad for something like this? How did he react to you coming to him in the past?

I said
The smallest thing now can triggers everything that happened, I know it may sound stupid, and that it shouldn’t be like this but it’s really something I can’t control.

You said
So now when similar situations happen, you feel just like you did back then

This is so true!!! Sobbing

Yeah it hurts now just like it did back then; I'd go easy on yourself because the little kid inside you needs to heal too, you know? Being laughed at by family members the way you were was not funny-these people are suposed to care about you-but if they laugh at you it can definitly send mixed messages-and then how can you develop normal relationships at school? I see your difficulty there yo;



Your mom did not let you change schools, she made you 'endure', that is, go at it alone, by yourself-and that is how you cope today-"I don't need anyone, I'm fine by myself" because your parents proved that they wouldn't help you?

I think this makes absolutely sense to me. They didn’t help me, even know they don’t. When I’m in my room, crying non stopping, shaking, hurting myself, this is me asking for help, when I said to my mom, I need a shrink because I don’t want to live, I asked for help, they didn’t give it to me, they did what they always done, you endure that and some day it will pass (of course it will, when I end my life).

This is the comment that caused me intitial concern-but I see the point you were making; you must have felt like they didn't care at all. It is one thing to tell a child that everyone has their bad days, but to not sit down with your kid and let them cry and talk it all out and actually empathize with them-that is not the same thing. Crying non-stop should be the main trigger-not letting it go till you are self harming. I hope you can surround yourself with people that do listen-you may have to work through a lot of trust issues to be able to find these types of people too.

I was seeing a psychologist, my bf took me there but I wasn’t feeling any good, and I didn’t feel better telling all that so I left. I’m beginning to think no one can help me.

are you able to talk more about the reasons you left? You felt like talking about it didn't help? Was your psychologist directing the sessions, or were you? How did you feel about it?
It sucks that when you finally get to go to one, you felt disappointed-maybe there was a reason why;

(congradulations! that's hard work-I dread grad school lol)

Thank you =) I’m happy with myself for this because I didn’t give up to reach a good grade of education. Did you? Seriously? I think it’s great, the learning and that, we became mature, and also it’s another atmosphere, with different people we are used to.

Grad school is a huge accomplishment-a lot of hard work and late nights-the late nights is what I dread lol, I value my sleep. What did you end up going to school for?

I said
I start always when I arrive or when I’m at social meetings, and that’s why I avoid them most of the times. I don’t feel any better, I only feel more anxiety because I’m always careful to what I say, so a end up not bringing my personality out because of the looks they gave me and because I’m afraid of what they may think.

You said
That's definitely no way to live!

I think so too, but what can I do? I tried to change that but it didn’t work, so I just keepburying myself in.

I'm thinkin that there's hope, just keep talking about it-looks like your doing a lot of emotional work and really feeling the anger and hurt by your parents-the more you go back there the more you may see it in current life-it's the curse of analysis-but what happens is slowly something changes, all of a sudden it doesn't affect you as much-still bothers you-but now you find yourself naturally handling the situation differently, seeking out the people you even if they do talk behind your back, care enough to talk with you about it-show you that they care and that what you say matters. I ended up having to confront my parents about a lot of things, and it tore up the relationship we had temporarily, but then healed back without the supressed anger that I was holding. This option isnt a mandatory step in the healing process-you will know what feels right for you-I still find it useful to take out the worst of my dad issues on my psychologist lol. At the end of the day, he's still my psychologist and we talk about it and work through it. I think an experience like that would help you a lot.

I just feel the need to saying this because honestly I think no one knows I feel about this, and I think the members of PC will understand, I’m hoping that =S. I can’t say this to other people, my bf or my family, because they will think I’m imagining things

And so anyone who says "this too may pass" may trigger you-same with real life too; telling you that you are imagining things is basically telling you what your parents did about changing schools.

What do you feel your family thinks?

I think my close family thinks I’m appealing, they even said that once or twice, but what can this means? My mom thinks I don’t need therapy as for the rest they talk behind each others back, they could have just said that and thinking that it’s no true.
.
I'm not sure I know what they mean by appealing...do you take that as a good thing or a bad thing? Your family members talk behind each other's backs a lot?

I
I said
Yes they did and there were even times when there were more than one person next to me and then the two of them started looking at each other, smiling and making fun of me, as they were saying “what? Is she nuts?” at least do that when I not notice god damn.

You asked
What do you remember about this incident(s)? Were you at dinner? Out somewhere? Who did the looks come from? Why do you think they felt that way? What were you feeling?

I was at a birthday party at my cousin’s house and with was my sister and cousin that did that. I think I said something in a way I don’t usually do, like I’m smiling and talking loud, you know, in some way more energetic, maybe it was because of that, I shut this side because everyone always give that looks.

I have to wonder if they were jealous of you being able to be that free back then; I'm sorry that they discouraged that side of you, I bet it is an awesome side; there seems to be certain quirks about people that is discouraged-like snorting when laughing-I love that, it's funny and a good sign of happiness-but nothing one should be made fun of though. You ever feel you could get that side of you back?

He has diminished the pressure he did to me, because he wanted me to go out more times with him and his friends, I didn’t feel like it, because then I would had to see her and because we distanced from each other she always ended up putting me aside from the group of girls( girls who date my boyfriend’s friends ) and there was even a time when she called all of them (the girls) to go drink and toast to girls and all the boys stayed outside, well guess what, they didn’t take me with them and didn’t invite me in.

That's not cool at all! I have had similar expereinces-I hide at parties actually, and I'm always scared that I'm not going to be invited-that is hurtful, what they did! I don't know why people do that yo, you sure didn't deserve to expereince that. Combining groups can be really tough sometimes too-the boyfriend's friends may not be as accepting-that creates a difficult social situation right from the start. I'm sorry that they didn't make you feel welcome;

Back to the other thing, I believed it in him because when she was saying that to me I remember thinking (oh I already know what he said to you, that he didn’t feel the need to have sex with other people) because I know him and he was my friend before we dated and she was giving other signs that she was trying to create a bad atmosphere between me and my boyfriend.

She is definitly the type of person to avoid if you feel that your boyfriend is genuine; these rumors and drama can get out of hand-people can be just plain spiteful sometimes too-I hope you are able to stay clear of these.

I had said earlier....
The more energy you will have to focus on learning how to recognize healthy relationships...people who will respect you will suddenly fall into your life.

Those people really exist? I’m taking a hard time believing it. I don’t have proof for that, my “friends”, family, even boyfriend. I know people have flaws and that they’re not perfect, but I do not expect for them to be, I only expect that they gave me their best, not perfection, only the best they could, but they expect me to accept someone who talks bad about others, because I’m done and trough with that.

These people do exist-and your expectations of them are right on-that's what you deserve from someone. Yeah I wouldn't accept someone who talks bad about others either-be careful though-sometimes we become our parents and can't see it, we do things to pull for what's familiar-which is conflict.

I lost the interest and the trust in people and i can't replace that, for anything, i can't gain it again, or at least i don't know why, maybe I wasn't meant to have friends, the emptiness seems endless.
