A female United Kingdom age 26-29, anonymous writes:

Please help, this has nothing to do with love or anything like that but I really need help and don't know who to turn to.

My mum got out of a abusive relationship after 7years, during those 7years the only person I could tell was my Anty that was suffering with a illness that only left with a few years to live, but no matter what she always had time to help, she was the only reason why I hadn't ran away.

Well 3 years ago my mum moved in with a guy from work, at the start he was really good to me, when I got into trouble he would he help me out, he'd help me with homework and stood up for me when I got kicked out of my last school, he told my mum that I was just getting bullied and that he was moveing me. He promised my mum wouldn't find out aslong as I controled my actions and anger, he also told me he would take me to see someone for my depression. After a couple of months of seeing them, they let me go and I was in a new school and met aload of new friends.

Everything seemed good untill I found out that my aunty was in a hospital in London and he helped me and my mum through it all, a mounth later my aunty died, I was at my step-dads sisters at the time and my mum found peace at her house. Since then my mum tried making her like my aunty not thinking why I'd except her.

After a year my mum got married to him and they were really happy, I always wished I'd find somemone like him.

Still his sister was flung on me to like her and to trust her like my aunty, she had two daughters and one son but I didn't get on with them.

After there wedding was when I started to notice the change, mum moved onto days instead of nights and things got weird, instead I couldn't talk to my new step-dad, I was now seeing someone for my depression again, but instead of getting better I got worse. Things were getting weirder and weirder, even though my depression was getting worse they pulled me out of councelling and I then was told that I have to tell them my problems but I couldn't, next I started relieing on my nan that lived on the other side of the uk.

I was being told off for not doing more than I was told to do for chores. Instead of trying to find peace I was always doing something for them, like makeing a coffee, doing my mums hair tidying up, doing the garderning with no help and if it was not done perfect they would shout and scream and I'd still be up late doing it. I had no time to do homework and was always in detention and they'd have ago at me for that, or ever get ready for school in the morning so I was going in looking like a state, I started loseing my friends because I wouldn't tell them what was wrong as I always learnt to bottle everything up.

After a while my nan died and I had no one to talk to, I was always in arguements with my parents, and the only place I seemed to go was my dads at the weekends. When my mum fell pregnant he helped me then and told me everything would be fine but after a while my mum lost it I was happier. My mum and step-dad was still acting the same even through the funeral of my nan.

I've met a boy that I really love and will always, I started to find time to go out with my friends again, untill I met him and I am always with him which I have told him everything, after 5 mounths we started to sleep together and the only person I could tell was my mum but I still don't trust her as she didn't believe me about her 7 year relationship, and what he use to do to me.

But now again they are the same, they are always telling me that I have to do this that and the other, last night I had anouther arguement with them about me haveing to do everything for them and then her saying she is the only one that is doing everything.

Please help I have had enough of being a slave and I've tried talking to her but she just argues instead.

Please tell me away to stop being a slave for them and them know that I still do have feelings.

What country are you from. Aren't you old enough for the independent youth benefit where you can live else-where? Go into your local financial support agency. It's good you have mates. They can come and visit you. You could board some-where and do your schooling and get involved with sports. If you can't do that, you need to look at how you view life with taking the good with the bad and always striving to do those things for you like keeping up with your homework. But think about this. Some-where a person has cancer and lives alone and hasn't many friends, and is isolated from people. Some-where some kid is begging on the street. Or think about our local hospitals. Turn a bad situation around. Enduring hardship makes you strong
