My parents fight a lot. And then they go about displacing, putting their angerIslets of langerhans Ovarian cancer dangers Pancreatic islet cell tumor all on us. But they hate us, too.
No matter how much they tell other people that they "love" their childrenChild neglect and psychological abuse Child safety seats Child tylenol cold multi-symptom plus cough School age child development (us), they don't. I've lived all my life being yelled at, called "worthless ****" etc. Cursed both in spanish and in english. Either way, it hurts a lot. As I am typing now, my mother is yelling. Not a day goes by without her yelling bad words at us, calling us worthless. And my father has said pretty bad things..
My father does not care about my sister's education. He was willing to go to Key Largo and buy $200 bucks worth of fireworks instead of giving her money for her college text books. Everytime my parents yell, I cry. And what's bad, is I don't have any real friends. I suffer from a social phobiaAgoraphobia Fears and phobias Panic disorder with agoraphobia Phobia - simple/specific Photophobia Social phobia, I don't even like being around people and I am ashamed of being around my parents. They've hit my little sister pretty hard several times and everytime I would defend her, my mother would yell at me and say it's none of my business and to "shut the **** up" or "shut your mouthMouth sores Oral cancer..I SAID SHUT UP!!" etc.
Question is..What should I do? I'm losing my sanity everyday..All my friends are online friends from around the country. They can't help me. My only friends in reality don't believe me and basically think I complain too much and/or making this stuff up.
Just the other day, my sister messeged me, telling me what our mother told her about my father..
"He doesn't want you guys. He was looking for you guys so that you can hang out with those boys, get pregnant, and throw you guys out because he doesn't want to take responsibility for you girls anymore."
And I would believe that because he pampers my brother a lot but treats my sisters and I like dog ****.
My mother treats us like slaves. I was cooking and cleaning the other day, and she called me lazy.
many people have to distance themselves from familyBirth control and family planning Choosing a primary care provider Ewing’s sarcoma Family troubles - resources. it just works out that way sometimes. im sorry your parents have turned out to not be lifelong friends for you to carry through adulthood. perhaps, life hasn't been kind to them and they are dealing w/ issues themselves and find that taking it out on the most vulnerable people, and the people that must sit there and listen to it is the only way for them. whatever the reason, it's not right.
dont go questioning yourself though. you are very young and have your whole life in front of you. get into therapy, continue to grow, and live and love the right way.

I wish I had a counselor to confide in but they've sent me to a bad psychologist who referred me to a psychiatrist..they were very biased. =\
I don't have any friends I could trust because all they do is say suck it up and go on talking about how they got to go to the beach for 3 days straight and stuff.
I don't wish to be at my aunt's house because i don't like my uncle. He's a terrible person. I just need to get out.

My post came off more harshly than I meant it.
Panda, this is your life is the thing. You can choose to live it filled with angerIslets of langerhans Ovarian cancer dangers Pancreatic islet cell tumor like your mother, or you can consciously choose to seek out positive influence and consciously choose to view your life in a positive way, and you can consciously choose to let things ride off your backBack pain - low Back strain treatment that are hurtful to you. The more you get in the habit of looking at the positive, and surrounding yourself with upbeat happy people and trying to learn their habits, the better your life will be.

You can decide to spend the rest of your life stewing in anger and rage and hate, or you can take their offer of resources, go back to the psychiatrist and request medication. If you truly have a social phobia you probably will need anti-anxiety medication for at least the time being, until you form new habits and learn to control your anxieties through calming your body.
It's your life. You can decide.
Your life isn't perfect, but really, your parents aren't responsible for your grown sister's college, she's responsible for that. If your dad wants to spend $200 on fireworks instead of giving it to your adult sister, that's his choice. Shouldn't be a cornerstone of your life gnashing your teeth in hate for him about it.
Panda, this is your life is the thing. You can choose to live it filled with anger like your mother, or you can consciously choose to seek out positive influence and consciously choose to view your life in a positive way, and you can consciously choose to let things ride off your back that are hurtful to you.

Best wishes.
