I am in desperate need of advice. I want to run away me and my family is a bunch of drunks. I am trying to think if I should do this or not and I feel like i'm about to explode. I'm in school and having thoughts of just walking straight out the door and leaving and not looking back. Idk what to do. I have a million thoughts swirling in my head. Help?

RE: Mr.Rock

Hello,

Thank you for writing into the National Runaway Safeline bulletin board, we are always here to help and here to listen to you and your needs. After reading about your situation it sounds like living with your parents is pretty difficult for you. Having all these thoughts of runaway can be hard to handle.

From what you have told us, it sounds like you want to run away due to the fact that you feel that your members of your family are a bunch of drunks. Can you talk a little more about what has been going on with this issue? Is there anything else that is happening in your life that is making you have thoughts of running away?
