21 Years, and sick of everything.

[Unregistered]

Hello,

My name is Valentina. I live in NY. I have been in a shelter last year because my mom told the police I was harassing her. The truth is-- I believe she is distorting the truth to the public. I am in an urgent crisis because I don't have the confidence to get a regular job, I am diagnosed with severe depression and P.T.S.D which my mom plainly denies.
I don't have relatives in this country, and I'm desperate to get away from my abusive mother. I have a boyfriend, but even he does not empathize with me. He is older than me by 22 years, and I am desperately trying to escape everything that causes me to worry or suffer.
Please tell me how I can get help.

Hello Valentina,
Thank you for contacting the National Runaway Safeline.

It sounds like you are going through a difficult time yet you are very brave to reach out as you battle with having severe depression. Good for you. It also sounds like you would like to escape from your mother’s abuse and have more support from your boyfriend.
Is that right?

Sometimes having an escape from what bothers you can be some sort of a relief. Having a good support base is might also be very helpful.

It may have been difficult for you to make the choice to ask for help. It’s great that you are.
