I am 13 years old and am under the impression that running away would be a not-so-crazy idea. I first got this thought when I was called crazy 3 times by my eldest brother. (I am the youngest) During one dinner, everyone in my family was yelling and blaming each other for problems with our computer. Long story short, I start to scream at everyone. Not like scream words, but just scream. This causes my eldest brother to presume I'm insane. I've heard him say to my mother (In not a nice manner, mind you) that I'm crazy. One time my mother told him I've just gotten my violin and am going to start taking lessons, to which he replied "Don't musicians go crazy?" Then, my mother was talking about a soap opera, in which someone stabs a jerk or something, and she says "I would've done the same thing," to which he replies "That sounds like something (my name here) would do, you know, because he's crazy." Finally, when my family was complaining about our computer once more,
he says, "Why should we have to suffer for what (my name here) caused?!"
Another reason I want to run away is because I'm gay, and my family had made it VERY apparent that they do NOT like gay people. They are very opposed and think all homosexuals should burn in hell or some ******** like that. They are also EXTREMELY religious, which they force onto me. I don't want to be that religious however.
My final reason for wanting to run away is because I don't think I was born into the right family. I've always been the outlier (black sheep, mistake; etc) I sometimes go to sleep not feeling secure that I'll wake up the next day.
I very much want to run away, but I'm scared of the consequences. I want to continue going to my same school, go to high school, and go to college. I'm just not sure that's possible if I run away, however. In fact, the only thing keeping me with my family is the fact that this is my best chance of getting into the high school of my choosing. That is all.
Side note: although I reccuringly used the term "family" to describe my situation, I do NOT think of them as family at all. I just used this collective noun because it would be easier to write. As far as I'm concerned, I don't HAVE a family.
