I cry almost everyday because of my mom.

My mom is always yelling at me yeah I have anger issues but when I'm calm she yells at me over and over again. Even when I wake up I get yelled at she barely talks to me. I cry everyday because of her.sometimes I think of moving with my brother.my dad is somewhat the same way but everyday is the same old same old yelling at me. And If I tell my parents about this their going to get mad and say "yourtemper\adittude is mean but I barely get mad sometimes the only time I really get mad is she yelling at me or when people ignore me. I can't keep living like this I was adopted by my mom and dad but no I just want to leave.

Ever since I was caught at school with my juul it’s never been the same at home. My parents probably say five words to me each day and I can only have my phone during school. I find myself crying at the most random times because I feel so unloved and worthless. I know what I did was a huge mistake but I don't think there is anything a kid could do to make their kids feel like they are unloved. it’s so hard because I’m grounded so I can’t see anyone or talk to anyone outside of school so I find myself alone all the time because I can’t talk to my parents. I think it’s causing depression because the way I’m feeling I’ve never felt before and it’s an aching feeling, please help, I really need some words of encouragement because right now there is no one to talk to.

Thanks so much for reaching out to NRS. No one deserves to be abused, and the way your mom has been treating you is wrong. You deserve to be in an environment where you feel safe and respected.
In most U.S. states (except for Alabama, Mississippi, Nebraska), the legal age of majority is 18. That means you do not need your mom’s permission to leave home or move out. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (866-331-9474) is a great resource. They are a 24/7 hotline like NRS who can help you make a plan to leave home safely. We at NRS can also help you find resources like shelters in your area. If you feel like you are in immediate danger, always call 911.
You are not alone in the way you are feeling, and you deserve mental health care. We can also help you find affordable counseling services in your area. If you ever feel like you might act on a suicidal thought, please call 911. You can also call NRS or the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255. We are here for you any time.

Hey,
im 18 and my mom beats me everyday for no reason and
she hurt me physically and emotionally since i was 8. Every time she sees me she yells at me. She always compare other children with me and complains. She always tells me to die or get lost. No matter what i did she never appreciate always blames me. And calls me harsh words such as ********** everyday
i don’t know what to do im emotionally down and stressed, physically hurt. She never think about me everytime when i tries to talk to her she yells at me with anger and start ro beat me. She always makes me feel like useless and it makes her happy. I just want to stay somewhere peaceful even when i tries to stay at a firends house she won’t let me. She drives me crazy wish i was dead or something.

Hello There thank you for contacting The National Runaway Safeline, we are here to help and here to listen. We know that reaching out takes great courage and we are glad you gathered up some courage to share a little bit about your story. It sounds like you are going through a really difficult time. You do not deserve to be yelled at disrespected. Have you talked to your parents and your aunt that you want to go to go live with your aunt? If you did then what was the outcome of the conversation? There are some things to think about when wanting to move to a different household. The first is are you moving away from your friends, restaurants you like, or places you have fun at? The second is will you have to go to a new school with new teachers and peers? The third is what are you hoping is different when moving into your aunt’s house? These are some of the main questions to think about and it sometimes helps to do a pros and cons list. The benefit of writing a pros and cons list is that you can see everything at one time about if moving is a good idea or not. We want you to know that your life is very valuable. We hope this information is helpful to your situation.

I cry everyday because of my parents they always think that I have a attitude I can tell that I’m the least favorite of the family. When I get something to eat my father says no I’m not going to become broke so stop eating everything in this house always puts my down as a person. I need help I don’t want to live here anymore I want to go and live with my aunt

Hello There,
Thank you so much for reaching out to The National Runaway Safeline, it takes courage to reach out, and we are glad you had the courage to reach out to us. Wow it sounds like you and your sister have gone through some difficult years. You both do not deserve to be treated this way. Abuse is never acceptable. You can make an abuse report by calling The Child Help line at: 1800-422-4453. If you are in immediate danger you can call 911 and a police officer could help you ASAP. We know that making an abuse report can be scary, if you would like help you may call us at any time. If you are attending school you can also tell your teacher or school counselor they are mandated reporters and are required to report any abuse that is going on.
We are sorry you have to deal with your mother calling you horrible names, you do not deserve that. We want you to know that you are important and you are worth something. Sometimes when people say mean things they are doing that out of their own insecurities. If you are ever feeling suicidal you may call The National Suicide Prevention Line at: 1800-273-8255, someone will always answer to provide support and listen. If you ever feel like cutting yourself you can put a rubber band on your wrist and pull it whenever you are feeling like cutting. This method may be a safer option. Whenever you are feeling depressed you can try to do coping skills to keep your mind off of what’s going on. Some coping skills may be writing your feelings in a journal, going for a walk, taking deep breaths, and doing hobbies you enjoy.
We hope this information will be helpful to you in your situation. If you have any other questions or would like to talk more please feel free to give us a call we are here 24/7. We wish you the best of luck!

Finally people I can relate to im a 13 year old girl from a half Mexican family. From the age of 4 I saw the most horrible things done to my sister. At that time my sister was 8 cuz she is 4 years older than me. My mom always hit her with cables ,the broom, the belt. I always felt bad and would start crying on my own whenever I saw how my mom treated my sister. I saw the same things over and over for the past 2 years. Until everything changed at the age of 6 my mom started doing the same to me. It started from her only pinching me and pulling my ear to her banging my head against the wall and slapping me with her own hands. I cried so much I always prayed to God telling him to make this stop. Same things happened over the nest 5 years until I got to 6th grade. I was 11 when I started 6th grade I didn’t know that the worst 2 years of my life were about to come. My mom always had the idea that she was a perfectionist therefore her daughters had to be the same. She scolded me for everything little mistake I did I got called horrible names and was told that I was worth nothing. She threatened to kill me many times saying if I’m the one that gave birth to you I have the right to also kill you as well. Honestly whenever she said that I wasn’t scared because I myself had plans on dying soon. I started cutting my self at the start of 7th grade I went through depression and loneliness at the verge of just wanting to end it all. I just wanted to silence those screams for good. The only places I found comfort were my friends and my sister who went through the same thing. Right now I’m 13 not much has changed I still get called those names and still get beated by her. Ive been able to control my tears but I always pray to God asking him to take my life away.

The problem is my mom she compares me and makes me feel like I don’t have a personality just a bad reflection of other people I thought the the problem was my grades so I raised them but she still yells at me she gets mad at the simplist things like me wanting to split up veggies from meat she hits me when I try to stand up for myself and she called me the f word and says that she wish she would’ve of killed me at birth when I cry she tells me boys can’t cry and I cry to much but that is only because she hurts my feelings I tell her child abuse is illegal but she just laughs at me like it was all a joke sometimes she threatens me and pulls out a kitchen knife of course she doesn’t hurt with the knife she twists my ear sometimes slaps me too and strangles me untill I can breath then let’s me go I’m only 11 and I wish that I was never born because of my mom My dad is nice but when my mom influences my dad he gets mad and hits me very rarely and it hurts so bad I have bruise marks.
