I dont really know what to do right now...

I had an argument with my dad, which I always have had with my parents. But this time, I was just tired of getting treated this way. I know my dad is stressed so he takes it out on me, not physically though. He yells. Last night, I was trying to help my little sister with her food and my dad just took the plate away, I told him what I was doing, then, he just kept yelling "SO DO IT!" and louder and in my face "DO IT! I SAID DO IT!" He just jumps out at me, and I was dumbfounded that he would do that. I just started balling and ran to my room and cried. I slept at 4 pm and woke up the next day, exhausted from that night. What happened was just a minor incident. Ussually, we argue about my grades, that I really do try hard to improve on, but he doesnt accept even ONE missing homework. I just get exhausted and depressed and definatley have suicidal thoughts. This started in 7th grade, now im in 11th. My attitude definately chages when this happens, even with my friends. I used to try cutting and it just made everything obvious, so I had to stop. I also used to be a bulimic, although I struggle with my weight now too. My dad doesnt believe in depression and my mom thinks its a phase every teenager goes through. I just dont know what to do. Help. please.

The way you are being treated is abusive. Emotional abuse is still abuse. They should support any recovery of yours especially and including for depression. The headache specialist being a doctor or your primary doctor might be able to refer you to a psychiatrist and either way should be able to direct you to who to speak to about the way your parents treat you and what could be done. If that approach doesn't work speak to a school counselor.

Also, I very frequently get migraines. and take advil or aleve or any other pill to stop them. I do go to a headache specialist.
