My Mom Makes Me Depressed And [email protected]

[Guest]

Hi I'm 12 Years old and as you can see the title that's what I'm here to talk about. Well yeah my mom makes me want to kill myself she is a good mom just when she gets mad at me she pulls my hair, hits me, threatens me that she will give me away, and makes me cry I'm currently taking 2 pills for my depression everyday but it doesn't even feel like its working at all. And when she makes me cry she doesn't even show a little bit of regret or when she calms down she doesn't say sorry when she pulls my hair or hits me. And then she's like "Oh I don't like hitting you or pulling your hair but its not my fault

Hello! Thank you for reaching out to the NRS!

We're sorry to hear about your struggles with your mom. We hear you, you should not be treated that way at home by your mother or any other family member. You deserve to be somewhere that makes you feel wanted and safe.

You mentioned that you are suicidal -- we take suicide very seriously here at the NRS. If you feel like you are suicidal and a danger to yourself, we highly advise you contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (800)-273-8255 or call 911. Additionally, if you feel as though you're going through your mental health issues alone, a great resource is NAMI, the National Alliance on Mental Illness. They have great support groups there with people going through similar issues at https://www.nami.org/Support-Education/Support-Groups.

Without more information though, it will be hard for us to help you with any specifics of your situation. If you want to talk with us live, feel free to call us at 1-800-RUNAWAY (1-800-786-2929) or chat with us at 1800runaway.org.

We wish you all the best and hope you will find these resources helpful.
