...after she proceeded to slam the front door as she stormed out because I started a load of laundry...Dad yelled at me for doing too much laundry...the Shining Twins echoing in my head "Stay with us forever and ever and ever"...I don't know if I want to celebrate my birthday or Christmas...I am so miserable.

I was bullied when I was growing up. People called me terrible names.. I would stay up late thinking of what to say back. I asked other people what to say back. I called them "buffoons" and they laughed in my face, this term didn't hurt them and me stuttering it to them didn't make it hurtful it just made me even more sad looking. I asked my therapist what to do and he said "ignore them". When they are in your face with a broom pulling your hair, this is impossible. I felt hopeless. But I never let them take my happiness completely away. Oh I cried. But I had my family, I had my friends and I had my teachers I liked. In these difficult times remember what you have, even if all it is is a roof and a full belly and a full glass of water. Be grateful for every present you have. I'm not saying bullying or abuse should be tolerated, because what you are going through is awful and you have every right to how you feel about it. But I'm telling you how to appreciate what you have that's good in your life, before you lose that too. With that you will have a great wealth of friendship and love. Take care. *hugs*

I told my Dad about how December is a bad month for me and how upset I've been feeling, and he sympathized and told me he knew this month is really tough on me and he promised we'll still have a fun time watching movies and celebrating my birthday and said this month--and the pandemic--has been tough on all of us.

I'm very sorry that you had to experience that. No one should have said that to anyone.

What kind of an insult is this? I'd laugh if my mom called me a cow. Come on, don't let hit you that hard, it's ridiculous!

Words either lift you up or tear you down. I am so sorry...this is verbal abuse.
