A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Im a 16 year old girl and i live with my two brothers, my mom, and my stepdad. My parents got divorced when i was younger, i dont really mind it except for the fact that my dad has never been there for me. My mom got remmaried when i was 7. I honestly love my stepdad, hes a great man who will do anything for me. He makes my mom miserable though. Shes always crying and saying to me.."if it werent for you, id kill myself."

sometimes she even says she wishes my stepdad was dead. I dont know what goes on between the two of them and honestly i think im better off not knowing. This morning they woke me up with another one of thier fights where they are telling each other to move out. my mom says shes stuck with him b/c my two younger brothers are his kids.

Now my mom, ehh shes kind of crazy. i dont know how else to put it. i often get yelled at just for being in the same room as her. she asks me why im following her around. i dont know, i dont let it phase me anymore because i feel like her goal is to make me as miserable as she is. Her and my grandmom dont get along so the way i see it, its going to be the same sitaution once i get out of this house. As you can see, im not really a big family person.. but i still love them with all my heart and i dont want it to be torn apart. Any suggestions? =/

First of all I'm so sorry you're in this sitation. The best thing I can suggest at this point is that if your church or school provides counseling services, run, do not walk, to make an appointment. If they don't, go to your docotr's office and ask for help there.

I'm so sorry there's no magic wand to wave to get you out of this situation. If possible do your homework in a library and sign up for every after-school activity you can just to be out of the hosue as much as possible and spend as much time in positive environments as you can. Stay over at friends' houses from time to time for support and so you can get a good night's sleep.

Your mum needs medical help if she is not only suicidal but openly telling her young daughter about it.

Get her to see a doctor.

She needs more help than we can give her here.

Good Luck!! xx
