I don’t want to live with my dad
My parents are currently divorced and I live with them both equally by doing week on - week off. However I don’t want to live with my dad. When my parents first divorced when I was little, I would cry when my mum would leave me at my dads. So we eased into it by having my mum over for dinner at my dads most nights but I would still cry. my dad used to get deployed in the Middle East a lot so it feels like I barely know him. However in 2010 (roughly) my dad met a girl who was so good for us. She made my dad settle down his rage and she kept everything in order. As I was young I built a really good connection and bond with her, recognising her as a second mother. However in 2017 they broke up and recently I’ve been really depressed. and I’ve noticed that it all comes back to that, my depression started when they broke up although it wasn’t caused by that. so now my dad has a new girlfriend who I don’t get along with, although my dad is still really close with the one I have been talking about. they act like they never broke up and they’re really close and weird. I’m now 14 and I don’t know what to do about my depression because it’s been happenning for so long and I haven’t told anyone. So now I live at my dads every second week. Now I don’t think my dad is abusive. He doesn’t hit me or sexually abuse me but I don’t feel safe around him, and I dread seeing him, to the point where I don’t want to go to his house and I get a bad feeling in my gut. I’m always grouchy around him and hate him. But I don’t know, my sister always tells me how I need to give him a break but I just don’t like him. I don’t want to live with him. Please help xx
