GOD FUCKING DAMNIT I HATE MY PARENTS

They tried to get me to watch 'Fantastic Beasts' which is written by JK ROWLING, and then complained about me not liking her. Asked me why, I said 'do you know anything she's ever said?', and my father complained that I answered with a question, when it was a question that would go on TO FUCKING EXPLAIN HIS.

I said if it was made by JK Rowling, I'd leave, so I had to look it up to find out because nobody would tell me. My father complained saying I didn't even watch any of her movies, and I didn't know if it was good or not. I was saying it was because I didn't like JK. I left, went upstairs to my room where I'm currently at.

Now they're talking downstairs saying I need to get off the internet because I 'believe everything I see online', when I was talking about TWEETS FROM THE HORSE'S GODDAMN MOUTH.

AND YET IF MY FATHER DOESN'T FUCKING LIKE SOMETHING BECAUSE OF PROPAGANDA HE SEES ON THE GODDAMN TELEVISION, HE'S SO FUCKING RIGHT AND NOBODY CAN TELL HIM OTHERWISE AND NO FUCKING PERSON AROUND HIM CAN LIKE WHAT HE DISLIKES, OR WATCH THAT SHIT AROUND HIM. YET I CAN'T DISLIKE SOMETHING AND NOT WATCH IT, BUT HE ALWAYS FUCKING CAN.

my mom just took away my spotify because FNAF songs a "devil's songs"

[reminiscentsoftomorrow]

A couple of reasons why I just don't care about my parents anymore.

(Apathy is safer, and anger is really tiring at this point.)

I can't believe I didn't realize this until it was explained to me, but my mother used therapy against me. She and my father would pint out that they "were trying so hard" but my mom always sat in on my sessions. The cycle was literally this:

Talk to therapist for three-ish minutes

I say something that ruins the "image" or that Mother just doesn't like

"That is NOT what happened, [deadname]. What have we talked about-"

Mother continues talking to therapist and I can't do anything but sit there for like half an hour

When we're out in the parking lot, Mother complains that I "never participate in therapy" and "you just need to try, you never try"

She also implied I was a whore when I told her I was pansexual. She asked what that was, and naïve 12-year-old me got really happy and explained it to her. Her fucking response?

"Oh, so you'll just sleep with anyone then."

I WAS TWELVE YOU PSYCHOPATH

I lost my virginity later that year to a 16 year old. Never told her, never wanted to. I didn't tell her anything anymore, to be honest.

My father was... also really bad. Physical abuse was always a thing, because of fucking course it was, but there's a few that stand out.

I was talking to a friend on my phone that he didn't like. Simple enough, right?

My father is 6'1" tall and built like those Scottish guys that lift boulders. He clocks in about 230 pounds.

HE FUCKING CRUSHED MY PHONE IN ONE HAND, PICKED OUT THE GLASS, AND TOLD ME TO GET HIM A BANDAID.

TW: Suicide Attempt

I was 10 when I started cutting, and 11 when I first tried to kill myself. This was when I was like, thirteen.

I tried using a cord to strangle myself, and he caught me. This man began yelling at me, berating me as I'm still suffocating. Then, he yanks the cord off and accuses me of wanting attention. Yeah, Robert, because I want that from you.

Then they both gaslight the fuck out of me until I ended up hospitalized and removed from the home. I went no contact at 19, because I needed the money. But once the bag was secured, I called my mother.

I was listening to "Hustle" by P!nk, because if I was changing my life, I'm crashing with style. Here's the play-by-play:

"Amanda?" I knew that she knew I was up to something.

"What is it?" The fakeness in her voice still makes me want to vomit.

"I don't want to see or hear from you or Robert ever again."

"...and can you tell me why?" There's loud and quiet anger. My mother is the second, and I inherited that. I know she's seething. But my parents have impressive masks.

I think that was the first humorous laugh I had let her hear, actually. I knew she was trying to bait me, trying to gaslight, and I was so fucking tired of it. Years of my life were lost to this bullshit.

"Figure it out." I hung up before she could respond. My parents always told me to do better, to take responsibility, to try, because clearly if I wasn't what they wanted, I wasn't doing enough.

So it's been exactly one year since that phone call. And I am thriving. I want everyone who's been in my shoes to know that you can make it. I still consider "Hustle" my theme song. I still flinch at quick movements, and have days I punish myself before someone else can do it. But I'm safe, and I'm getting better.

Update on the issues with my mother

She took me to court and tried to say I hit intentionally her.

The court was like oh shit you need family therapy. Asif I haven't been making that claim for years.

Every time I said something she didn't like she tried to speak over me. Also my school counselor showed up for me which was nice.

But ya here's the fit.

[righthandman-martyn]

What if i exploded, my mom's thinking abt being a fucking crunchy mom and walking barefoot and laying on the grass in a hippie wannabe way, omfg please help m e las just two more years two more years till I'm away two more years

[depressedtrenchcoatbees]

[im-a-riot22]

Not my mom claiming our money and putting all her shit under our address and number causing the government to think my dad is committing tax fraud lmao

[leftistgamedev]

“How did you decide when someone was irretrievably lost—when they were so evil or toxic or just plain set in their ways that you had to face the fact they were never going to change? How long could you keep trying to save them, and when did you give up and grieve for them as though they were dead?”

Why have I never related to a passage more? Fucking hell Rick…

(now feeling a strong desire to make a game based on this concept of trying to save people too far gone and expending so much energy you have no choice but to accept it and move on)

PS: I haven’t read the last magnus chase book yet if you spoil it for me I’m going to have an aneurism

EH EHE HE EHE EHEMMMMMMMM

YOU DONT 'TRAIN UP' A FUCKING CHILD THEY ARENT YOUR GODDAMN PET FUCK YOU

GOOD DAY

[bannedwheatandwheatbyproducts]

The amount of parents who think that monitoring spying on their kids via spyware, with or without their knowledge, is acceptable or “good parenting” makes me so FUCKING SICK.

[exposingtroubledteenindustry]

[inhumanliquid]

It's fucking sad how many people refuse to see kids as fucking human beings. Every time I see someone act like you're an object until you turn 18, I get one whole day closer to ending the entire human race on my own. Fuck y'all's "kids don't have rights" shit.

[to-the-moon-angel69]

this is basically my everyday nightly phone routine so that my parents don’t know about my 2nd life

[hand-soap404]

Last night after an argument with my mom, she told me to leave the house and not to come back, to find somewhere else to sleep because she was locking the doors tonight.

I walked over a mile and a half to my friends house. The cops found me there and took me back to my mom.

I tried to explain that she kicked me out, they said I was lying. I tried to walk away and was restrained by an officer. He threatened to cuff me, tried to put me on my knees.

Today I feel like shit, I've got bruised ribs and a twisted knee / ankle from the cop.

And all of this, for reference I'm a 16 year old girl with bipolar 2, Major depressive disorder, generalized Anxiety disorder, and Oppositional defiant disorder.
