can i call cps?

Hello There,

Thank you so much for reaching out to The National Runaway Safeline, we are here to help and here to listen. Wow it sounds like you are going through a difficult time and we want you to know that you are not alone.

You do not deserve to be abused and you do have the right to file a report and there are a few ways to go about doing this. One option would be to call Child Help at 1800-422-4453, and they would be able to help with making a report. Another option would be to speak with a school counselor because they are mandated reporters they would be required to file a report. Lastly, you can call or chat with us and we would be able to help you with making a report.

Going through depression and self-harm is difficult and you do not have to deal with this alone. A resource that may help you is called NAMI (national alliance for mental illnesses). They can be reached at 1800-950-NAMI.

We hope that this information will be helpful to you in your situation. If you have any other questions or would like to explore more options please give us a call. We are here 24/7 to listen to you and to provide support. Best of luck!

im 12 turning 13 in 2 months and just yesterday my uncle and my grandmother got upset with me because i say “idk” alot to the questions they ask me and as a result of that they called me failure and other things. then they grabbed my arm and my keg and dragged me out my room. i was begging them to put me down. they only recorded it and sent videos of me screaming and having a panic attack to my mother. when my mom arrived home she took my phone for the rest if the year. there has been many times when my mom and my grandmother and my uncle have put their hands on me previously. im also aware of the use of weed being used in my home. my mom verbally abuses me aswell making small comments on how i look or how a act. its led me into a deep depression leading me to self harming and suicidal thoughts. i still get everything i need like money food clothes. but this home is very toxic and i wish to be put out of it.
