I have decided it is best for me to run away. A girl at my school who used to be my friend asked me on Ask.Fm "I love how much u think I am annoying considering I was the only person who stuck by you and made you laugh. You brought your sadness upon yourself and constantly blame other people for it" she has also said to me my depression is only a phase and I'll grow out of it like I do everything else. My closest friend has been giving me *** because she agrees with the girl who said those things. I hate my family because my younger brother is favoured and get everything he wants and often tells me to kill myself and how he wishes I was never born. I am constantly yelled at by my dad because of making mistakes and never trying because an A+ is never good enough. And he thinks I've stopped trying when I'm spending all my effort on not cutting or killing myself. I cry every single night and was this nightmare to end. I want to know what I should bring and where I should go (I live in Australia btw)

Contact one or all of the above AND TALK TO THEM.
You have a whole lot of life yet to come and it most probably will be a great one.
Seek assistance from those that both know and understand and are able to give you support.
Take care.
I suggest you do what I and many others have done over the centuries. Choose your time, don't think you have no choice.

Weigh up the pros and cons. Why should you be driven out when it might be better to wait till when the time is right for you? For myself I detached from myself enough to play the game for long enough to allow me to get the time to gain the qualifications I needed to get on in life. Once I'd got where I needed to be I was gone. You need never look back.

Don't give them the satisfaction. Take control of your life and make sure you choose when and what you want to do with your life at the time that is best for you not them.

The one thing that has helped me dignify my existence, if such a thing is possible for a human, is that I have never given the bastards the satisfaction of victory over me. It is incredibly hard I know, but with every day you suck it up, ever nearer comes the day when you can give them the finger and disappear from their shoddy lives forever.

Listen.

probably best if you don't get a cat though
Sorry about your troubles. Don't run away. You have nowhere to go and no money, I guess. It sounds like you're a teenager, and that is a tough time. Tell your dad how bad he makes you feel, that you're trying your best.
Try to stick with it. Your brother is being horrible, but that's brothers (I don't have one, but sisters can be just as horrible-she and I get on fine now).
Try to talk to them and tell them how bad you feel. You don't mention your mum. Is she around?

Yes my mum is there but she is always working and doesn't do anything about it.

\\\ how on earth are you going to get to Australia !\\\\

No problem.....she already lives there...;-)
Ha sqad, missed that one, dont Australia have any social services ?
LOL^.........no idea........that's even if the OP is real.
Look here. I think it should be the default understanding on these boards that the original post is genuine. Of course it may not be, but if any of them are genuine and we respond with mockery or apathy the result could be worse than anything we would want to have on our conscience.

re. my "pulled" post above.

the "LOL ^" was referring not to the OP er but to the post of catswhisker............

LOL......don't worry catswhiskers........no b ig deal.....I am used to being in trouble with AB.
And were you to run away do you have a place you know you could run to where life would be better ? I suspect not, not least of all because you are asking here.

Running away is rarely a good move. Most of these way out ideas tend to be calls for help but they can go very wrong. I suspect you know that your issues are those you need to sort out with your GP and other medical personnel. Rushing off would make it even less likely you get the help you need. And who knows who you might meet up with.

I think you need to talk over you r issues with someone you trust, work out exactly what the real issues are and work towards getting what you can sorted, and accepting that which you have no power to change. And yes, depression tends to do for a period only; like everything else in life, change is the only constant.
Please think things over Yasmine,lots of people have been in a similar situation.When I was in my teens I never spoke to my dad for nearly 5 years,my two elder sisters were a right pair of bitches and mum had enough troubles with her health to worry too much about it but eventually things got better.Mums health problems were sorted my sisters didn't seem so bitchy and dad became as much a friend as parent.I cant promise things will get better for you but don't do anything without exploring all the options,things will get bette
Then forget the idea of getting a cat. You dont have enough responsibility for yourself, you couldnt look after an animal.
Yasmine, I hope you listened to the music. I first heard the piece when my life was upside down and my head was full of worries. After a while the beautiful melody calmed me down and I felt the love the composer must have felt as he worked on the piece.

My initial response to you may have been too hard but let me explain why. My nephew lost his mother to cancer nearly two years ago. Let's just say the UK NHS didn't cover itself in glory. The opposite in fact.

One of the things his mother did before her untimely death was to go to his school and complain about the sustained bullying her son had received since he went to the school. If anything after her death the bullying got even worse and it all came to a head when he broke down in class when several pupils, in front of the teacher were making hangman's noose gestures and encouraging him to kill himself by hanging or by drinking bleach! They would steal his lunch and any money he had. They would run past him in the corridor each one punching him as they went past. The site won't allow me to repeat the vile verbal abuse he was subjected to.

He, as is often the case, was much younger than the other boys in his year.

To their eternal shame the school said he was unpopular and was gay and had brought much of it upon himself! His father is now home-schooling him. He has a girlfriend and slowly he is getting over his ordeal. He's growing more confident and getting taller and broader across his chest. With the help of his dad and his sister my wife I think he's going to be OK.

So remember it is never darker than before the dawn. Don't do anything stupid or selfish and if you need to talk to someone at any time you can get the number of the Australian Samaritans Crisis line here;

http://www.whitepages.com.au/business/samaritans-crisis-line/

I and the others on this site are hoping you'll be OK. Get in touch again if you want to. Don't do anything stupid and remember there are people out there who can help you.
