THIS really worries me guys, I have 13 major issues and 2 minor issues. I can't seek professional help I can't find support within my family I am crazy to all my "friends". I feel so alone and have been having episodes of anger and panic due to my abuse.

I'm sorry. Why can't you seek help?

I'm sorry. Your health is more important than your parents needing to be informed or whatever names they may throw at you. So if they're not going to help you then most health specialists should be able to pull some strings.

Good luck!

How old are you? Are you in school, someone there should be able to help. Kudos for still functioning so well with all of your diagnoses.

You may think about talking to a social worker at child protective services, if they are the ones calling your parents then maybe stay anonymous until you've explained the repercussions you deal with from seeking help. There has to be some agency that would offer you protection, especially turning 16 you could look into emancipation, in conjunction with assistance.

Can she talk to you for support? Tell her you need someone to talk to in real life. Okay?

I've tried but I feel like she doesn't accept me or my problems in borderline mute when I'm at home for fear of being criticized or starting fights like I usually do...

do you have any teachers at school who seem sympathetic? I'm unfortunately not sure about laws in the place you live so I don't know the specifics of the help that could be available to you, however I think starting at school is your best bet. make sure to explain the abuse and make it very clear about how bad it is, sometimes you have to give them no choice but to help unfortunately if talking is hard writing a detailed letter and giving it to the person can be great
I know that it's frightening (I've been in almost your exact situation) but getting help as soon as you can is the most important. If your parents can't even manage these basics then they cannot take care of you and there are people who can help.
the most important thing is for you to keep asking for help until something changes. I'm sorry that you have to do this espicially at so young but it's very unlikely that things will change for you unless there is some outside assistance. it will be best for everyone involved.
Thanks for this!

you should also consider maybe calling a youth crisis hotline? I am pretty sure most states have that, I live in Maine and we have one here, I have called it in the past.
