I'm sick and tired of what I have to go through almost everyday.
My messed up parents, are allowed to call me overweight(which, I'm not) stupid, retarded(which, I'm not) ugly, worthless and unimportant. I've learned from a really young age, to never cry/ or to let this get to me because I would get yelled at and hit saying "I'll give you something to cry about." Now they usually just yell, cuss at me and call me names. But, that's ok! Parents ARE supposed to do this. I'm sick of the homophobic BS they're constantly spewing out. I'm sick of them making fun of my gender idenity. I've got a year left of this. It gets to me alot, I feel intense pain and anger.

I feel like breaking things when they are intentionally trying to hurt me. I've been getting treated like this for 8 years. No one else treats me like this. You know what, feels like I don't even have family members. Everyone is so fake. It makes me mad when people are close with siblings, family members etc.. because, to me that seems like they are very babyish and wimpy! My parents are very judgemental, they don't believe in helping others even the ones, that they're related to.

I bottle everything up, can't talk to them I get yelled at, mocked and made fun of for how I feel. I hardly feel anything, it is hard for me to feel things for others anymore. I get nothing in return. And whenever someone is kind, and wil actually take the time to listen to me. I feel like they are fake, and only want something in return.

Who can relate?

Well I won't lie and say I relate, but I really am sorry you were cursed with such a terrible excuse for parents.


You deserve better, so much better, I hope you know that.

I'm sorry you have to go through this. Why do you have to wait a year to get away from them? Why not leave now?

I'm so very sorry this is happening to you. I'm 57 and my mom still does these things to me, but in a whole different manipulative way. I'm here for a few months until I can get back out on my own. When she suspects that I'm making any plans to leave, she gets super nasty. I'm starting a new job tomorrow and the next stop is moving out. I do have money in savings for rent & security deposit. Let's hope it's sooner than later!

Thanks. I can't leave now because I have no where to go and not alot of money.

Oh, how unfortunate that you can't leave such a toxic environment. I wish you the strength to persevere in these trying times.

Unfortunately, there's not really any law against them treating you this way, as you probably already know. I'm sorry you are stuck in this miserable situation. Life really sucks when you are young and dependent on others who fail you this badly.

They're not going to change. Your hope lies in eventually getting out of this home, which you will be able to do one day. Meantime, network with others who may understand your difficulty. See what may exist in your community by way of support for persons with cross-gender identity. If you're on a small town, you may need to take a bus to the nearest decent size city to connect with sources of support. For now, you may have to keep to yourself at home for your own emotional protection. No point letting down your guard just to have them take pot shots at you. They are ignorant and probably don't know how else to act. Ultimately, they will be the losers.

Remember: the less they do for you, the less you owe them. That may be a liberating reality for you some day.
