My brother is a year younger than me (20) and lives with our parents. He lived with me for a bit but we had him move back with our parents bc he never paid bills on time and was just a hassel to live with. He doesn't have a liscense. He has a permit and failed his driving test so he has to take it again. He won't schedule it after months of my mom telling him to. He doesnt have a car and won't save up for one or an apartment. My parents are tired of taking him and picking him up from work. He plays video games all the time and that's where alot of his money goes. My mom is fed up with it and needs him to grow up and move out. Any advice?

I'm a 16yo female & I weigh just shy of 200lb. I come from a big family where my brother, mom & dad are all overweight. I want to lose weight, but have no support system. All I get is my mom saying I'm pretty no matter my size. What do I do?

In the past, I used to be a good kid. Got straight A's, honor roll every semester in Elementary and Middle School, I rarely ever got a B. But recently, in Freshman year of High School, it all changed. I'm failing AP Geography with an F, my German class, around a D, and my other classes are at C's with rarely B's. I know the cause, it's my procrastination, and I've tried so many techniques like setting times to do my homework and how long my breaks will be, having a study buddy, etc. None has worked, I only push the time off and my friends and I would get distracted. Taking away my electronics doesn't help, tutor doesn't help either, as my problem isn't the inability to learn a subject, but what I'm doing with my time. My parents are disappointed in me, and it's understandable, as my sister is achieving very well with a high paying job in microbiology. My brother is getting amazing grades as well, and he's in college at a great school. I'm starting to lose interests too. I used to enjoy playing the flute, now I don't care much about it anymore. Hanging out with friends, i don't even enjoy anymore either. I just stand there awkwardly contemplating about what my future might hold, basically nothing. I'm sorry for this long draft, but there is just so much I need to let out. This isn't even all of it. If anyone finds this relatable, or knows a solution, or anything, please let me know. Any source of help is very appreciated. Thank you for your time :).

First, I need to set up the situation. We moved to a new house about 10 years ago, my mother quickly became friends with our neighbor and I quickly developed a crush on her son. I never liked how my mom allowed this lady to take advantage of her kindness. Fast forward 7 years, my mom and his mom were still friends and nothing had happened between her son and me. This changed when I went into his work and he started to flirt with me. We soon started dating. This ended within three months as I found out he was cheating on me. I promptly broke up with him. 3 years later (present): I have always disliked this lady but I know now that she has badmouthed me to her entire family because I had to threaten to get a restraining order against her son after he stalked me because I broke up with him. She, however, is still friends with my mom. As I said, she takes advantage of my mom. She calls and asks my mom to wrap her gifts then says she has no paper. She will invite herself to things and then expect my mom to drive. And many other things that greatly anger me. Thankfully she has since moved and always complains to my mother that she hates her new house, thus my mom always invites her over to our house. My mother, of course, wants me to sympathize with this woman and socialize with her when I know she hates me. I realize my mother is a grown woman and I am only home for the summer (I'm in college) but how can I ask my mom to not let me be around her?

My sister is not a very nice person but if she screams and yells she gets her way.

By outsider I mean there always has to be someone She gossiped about in the family. Always has to be somebody she looked for the worst in, in the family. For my mom it was her brother who is was an alcoholic. When he died she shifted it to other siblings in which she would rotate one sibling one year and another another year. With me it is usually my brother who had addiction issues. However he has recovered. So now it is my sister it was a boy with me it is usually my brother who had addiction issues. However he has recovered. So now it is my sister Who is demanding and kind of like a narcissist. and other points it is my mom who is always negative. So how do I break this toxic behavior that my mother passed down to me? I'm doing the exact same thing she did except I don't gossip as frequently about the people. I am actually disappointed that my brother recovered as he made a good scapegoat since his addiction was drugs and he was in jail.

I lost my house recently (well actually it's been 1.5 yrs but it's just hitting me now) it was a fully paid off home that I grew up in and my ex had it put in his name by my mom and took all the equity refinancing constantly. It became underwater upside down whatever and foreclosed. I miss living in it and we had to live out of the town because it's too expensive. Why did it just hit me now ? I thought I was ok . Now I feel so bad fir my kids because they were raised there (niw14abd15) .i can't get another house anytime soon because my credit is very poor . I feel I'll never be able to save and repair my credit. Niw we are in a condo that has no freedom fir them to do anything.

A month ago one of my Special Olympic Athletes, whom I went to World Summer Games in Connecticut, back in 1995, was unfortunately killed in an automobile accident, and I just found out about this last night on a news media website. I did meet his father back in 1995 before we did head off to Connecticut, and in later years I always seen his father at some State Tournaments, Last time I seen both him and his father was back in 1995. I am not sure if the father remembers me well, but I also plan to send a photo of the whole volleyball team with both me and him in the group, so is it to late to send a sympathy card to the family?

I'm an 18 year old female and I have a 10 year old sister. She's a good kid and she's really polite and studious, but my parents want to send her to a boarding school, because they say that they've lost their ability to raise a kid. I really can't understand them! When, I ask them why they don't want to raise her, they say that they're too tired to raise her! I live in a university dormitory and I don't have enough money to manage a kid's life, otherwise I would raise her instead of my parents. What should I do​?! I can't convince my parents to stop thinking about sending her to a boarding school and I don't want her to be raised at such a depressing place.

He's gay but that's not what matters, he has this attitude of not wanting to do anything and always complains and criticizes everything and he gets mad very easily and always talks back plus he likes to get very argumentative with things and has this way of thinking that if a song is in a bad time he will not listen which is okay is my belief but he over exaggerates upon that. I can't stand his attitude it's driving me insane. Sorry if I sounded cold hearted that was not my intention

My daughter is 14 and she lacks maturity and responsibility. I have tried everything to help her develop certain skills but it didn't work. Her doctor says that she has the mental age of a 7 or 8 year old girl. She was born with autism spectrum, and I am worried that she might not be able to cope with high school. She could not cope with middle school back in 6th grade, and the school counselor suggested that it had to do with her mental age. We understood that a typical 6 year old wouldn't be able to cope with being in the same classes as 11-12 year olds all day and act like one of them. She often has trouble with: socializing, organization, take responsibility for whatever chores we gave her without reminders, etc. she may also say inappropriate things during class. Unfortunately, we worry more about her than her siblings. We cannot trust her to babysit. Her interests are not what kids her age are typically interested in. They are the kind of things that younger children would like. The things she says to other people are also often inappropriate. She easily trusts people and my other concern is that she can be easily taken advantage of, especially with older teens. Any ideas? Sorry, forgot to mention that in Canada, our school system is wired differently. She has an IEP and there will be staff members to support her for sure.

My parents are divorced so I see my dad every other weekend. I spend a lot of time on my PC, because I don't know what to do when at their house. When we do spend time, we play board games, watch TV/movies, and the occasional hang out and talk session. What are some good hobbies that will be fun for both me and my dad and will allow us to spend more time together?

If a parent decides to have two children, a lot of them seem to want a girl and a boy. Not two girls or two boys, although there are still some parents who prefer their child to be the same gender as their sibling. Is there something different between parenting a girl and a boy so they want both worlds?

So my dad is moving to chicago for a job in like 2 weeks and idk how I'm gonna be able to handle it. Thing is, my parents have been divorced since I was 2, and since then, they have gotten married to other people and I now have 5 half siblings. My dad, step mom, and 2 of my half siblings are going there, too, and I am really not looking forward to it. I am going to see him only about once every 2 months and it's only gonna be for like 2-3 days at a time. I need some advice for how to cope with this, and how to just make life a little more enjoyable after he moves. Help!

Ok, my grandma is very old (she's going to be 80 this month!) and has been severely ill for a long time My aunt lives in my grandma's house along with my uncle and their two kids. My aunt looks after her but she is very lazy and never keeps the house clean. However, some bad things about my aunt have come to light in the last few weeks. My aunt has apparently been scolding and screaming at my grandma so much that it made my grandma cry (she rarely cries and to hear her cry was so painful) and my grandma complained to other people that she is scared of my aunt. Also, my aunt is a downright ***** because she kicked my grandma out of her own house. Since I come from a pretty big Asian family, one of my other aunts took my grandma in. What struck me is that my aunt had the GALL to come visit her at my other aunt's house even though she kicked her out and she sends her kids to my cousins house so they can babysit them all day and my aunt can have the house to herself. Three days ago, my grandma was sent to hospital and all my relatives have been each day to see her. I went to visit her yesterday but she keeps mumbling that her time is coming. My aunt hasn't been to visit her. I don't know how to act around her. Should I just be normal with her and let the adults deal with it? But the thing is that no one is saying anything to my aunt about this! She'll then think that she can get away with something like this. What should I do about this?

We Canadians have a lower drinking age. 18 is the drinking age for most provinces, and a few provinces have 19. Lots of college students go to the bars and clubs in the big city on a Friday or Saturday night. However, lots of people think that Canadian kids shouldn't be able to drink until they are 21 because of their brain development. I agree that lots of fights occur inside clubs and they make harmful, bad decisions (stabbings, fights, getting out of control, many aren't responsible, etc). The same things would probably still happen if we raised it to 21+, but some people think it would decrease the amount of problems going on at night time.

So my younger sister. My parents did a bad job at raising her which is the gods honest truth she curse out my parents yells at them. And annoys them. And they do nothing they threaten her but they are emptey threats. Even tho how terrible she is she will lie to my parents constantly about me. Like i would be in the kitchen eating and she would be like OW joe stop hitting me and then i get in trouble. I tell my parents that shes lieing but they dont care instead they call me special and retarted is this like abuse cause i cant stand this anymore all i get is **** after **** and i cant take it anymore. This little girl is sick and twisted. And you can tell me oh its sibling rivilary or shes being a kid. No she is something straight out of hell. She hits me and curses me out and my parents could be watching and they could care less. Child service? I feel like im getting neglected

I am 13 years old and my sister is going to college across the country in August. I currently share a room with my younger brother. She insists that her room is kept how it is and I share a room with my younger brother until I go to college. I even came up with a compromise where I would sleep in there and spend time in there without messing with her stuff left there. She won't even agree to that. Is it okay for me to take her room? Who is right?

He's getting deported and idk what to say to him he's always been abusive and I can't think of one good memory so help me think of something to write just to make my mom get off my case

So I live with my mom but my dad visits everyday. Both of my parents complain about how I don't spend a lot of time with them, and it's true. But the reason why I don't spend time with my Dad is because he is super boring. Whenever he comes over all he does is just sit and watch tv for 6 hours and then leaves. Both my parents make me bring them food and stuff, and then they complain why I don't like spending time with them. Does anyone have any advice that can help me maybe deal with them? By the way i'm 15

Quisiera saber si no importa que sea menor de edad yo y mi novio si no habra problemas en registrar a mi bebe

Hi our current schedule is husband works random shifts either morning or afternoon. My mom works some mornings. Usually my mom or husband watch my son while I sleep. ( sometimes I split my hours or try to sleep the whole 8hrs) have other moms gone through this?? My job would pay me less and work me way harder if I had a morning or afternoon shift.. so more work for less pay doesn't really attract me. Are your kids in daycare when u sleep in the day?

So my mom and I used to be really close a couple years ago, up until her and my dad got a divorce. My mom and dad were always fighting since I could remember so I was glad they divorced. However, since then my dad has moved out and recently my mom has forced us, her, me. and my three other siblings to move back in with him against all of our wills. For the past year and a half my mom and I have been distant since, she has been more in my business and everyone else's. She has just been a ***** to everyone except my little brother who is obviously her favorite. Recently I have been hanging out with my friends more and she has been super strict about where I am, when I'm coming home, and what I'm doing. I'm a senior in high school, but she will not let me out past 10. Anyways, she has also been tracking my dad, me, and my siblings through her phone but we are not able to track her back. She is constantly accusing my dad of cheating and visiting other women, when in reality they are not even married. It's quite obvious they are not happy so I do not understand why we were forced to move back together.My dad is okay with letting me go out and do stuff, he understands I am in high school and almost done and should have some freedom. I feel when she forces me home it impacts my social life a little at a time. since my mother is very antisocial and I guess wants to rub that off on me. Any advice for anything? All is appreciated.

Also, their son screams in the middle of the night at 12 a.m. and 3 a.m. from night terrors. What should we do? How should we talk to them? I try to make my voice loud and show how angry I am....but haven't talked to them.

There s a lot of things going on. I really need to deal with this but I dont know how. It starts from health anxiety. Last month I have a really bad insomnia. I tried to call any family member to get help because I really cant take it anymore. I called her at first. And then I tell this story and she doesnt want to know what I already try, no matter how hard it is, she doesnt want to know where I did wrong. That time I was really frustrated but she wont care. She only repeats try to sleep . Then things got worse when I was unable to find a taxi, i was catching this train to another city. But she never offer me a ride. Theres a car and she can drives. She tried to help me find it by uber. But i was scared because it will be more delay. The time was so near to departure. I told her about it but she got mad and said fine if you dont want help, then went to her room. Why? I was rarely at home and I was treated unwantedly. It is too painful to know your own family doesnt care about you. So how to deal with the pain? Since I know I wont be able to get away and keep avoiding.

My Mom taught me to see the worst in my siblings like she did in hers.

So my Mom is mad because my aunt had me over and her daughter, my cousin, was there. The cousin has 3 kids and has never been married. There are two fathers of the kids and she is getting back with the father of the older two kids. He is ghetto like and lives in the worst part of Philadelphia. So my mother says it is enabling to meet the boyfriend and act all nice. Is this? Should I have boycotted my aunt's event since the boyfriend was there? The cousin has just moved in with him again after they broke up for 4 years and she met someone else and had a baby with that other person. The cousin was abused by her father (aunt's ex-husband) and so that effected her mentally as well as her father's suicide when she came out that he had sexually abused her (the man was evil).

So we had a barbeque yesterday with kebabs and chicken skewers, and my mum was complaining that it wasnt 'proper food'. We sat on deckchairs and ate. My mum said that we should have sat at the more formal dining table, but only mentioned this afterwards. Does she expect me to read her mind!? A typical example, every saturday she shouts at my dad saying that she is "bored stupid" HOW ARE WE SUPPOSED TO KNOW, If she had said earlier, we could have made plans to go for a walk ... Please tell me that this is normal, because i just don't know what to do next. Finally, I know i'm ranting but she also said just now that she "hated cylinder hoovers" and "wanted them as far away from the house as possible" - she overracts right? Yahoo Answers is kinda my only 'lifeline' - I daren't tell other family, because i dont want them to get involved. I have my GCSEs next week, please give me some advice x Basically, she doesnt tell us what she wants, instead waits until we have done it ant complains. How are we know what she is thinking if she doesnt tell us??

All my life I've wondered who my birth dad is, whenever I ask my mom, she tells me her side of the story and he always seems to be this bad guy that my mom stopped me from, possibly because she was quite young when she had me. Recently, my half brother on his side (with proof given) has reached out, and with that, my birth dad.. I've been speaking to him recently and he doesn't seem like the dad I've always heard of, he has pictures of me as a baby and my half siblings know all about me, they say I'm included in every prayer and everything. He said he tried to reach for me 15 years ago by letter but I never received a letter and he also said he was trying to reach me by my mom's email, but I've never been told about him trying to reach me.. some people are saying she might of cut communications because he may not be the guy he says he is (we spoke on the phone and he sounded genuinely happy to hear me and even asked me to please stop crying) and I'm more thinking that maybe she's cutting all connections because my grandparents told her to due to her age being young... he asked if she's okay with us talking and personally I think she is because I am 18 and she seems to care less about my dad now because she's remarried & everything. She even said she doesn't care if I searched for him, but would she care if I spoke to him? we've been talking for 2 days now and he hasn't done or said anything to break my trust, and he honestly doesn't sound like the guy my mom told me about..

I'm a grown man and I have a life to live. Yesterday I went to hang with my friends at their house and play hockey and she kept calling me asking me if I'm ok. I had to shut my phone off because she was annoying me way too much. Another time my parents went out and I was still home. I went to take a shower and when I got back there was 10 missed calls on my phone all from my mother screaming at me saying I had her worried sick about me. I was in the shower. What should I do? Her excessive worrying and babying is making me resent her to a new level

So I'm female and was browsing porn like a lot of adults do and click on a home video because it had my city and state underneath it was my older sister she is 24 but from the video it doesn't look like she knew she was being recorded if she chose to be on there fine she is grown but how do I approach her about this how do I even start this conversation were close and have discussed sex before but this is way different I PREVIOUSLY STATED IF SHE ALLOWED THE RECORDING SHE IS AN ADULT....IF SHE ALLOWED THE RECORDING AND NOT THE POSTING IT'S UNFORTUNATE RECORDING "PRIVATE" SEX IS NEVER A GOOD IDEA... REALLY TRYING TO APPROACH HER PROPERLY IN CASE SHE HAS NO IDEA ABOUT THE VIDEO AT ALL

For the past few nights I start to think about something happening to my dad and what I would do. My dad's fifty-two and is in good health, and my mum passed away three and a half years ago from cancer. I imagine how it would happen to him, myself ringing my girlfriend crying, what would happen at his wake, having to go to the bank and explain what happened to sort out finances, and taking the role in raising my fifteen year old brother, etc. My dad and I have a good relationship and he's an amazing dad, so I've no idea why I would sit and think about something that won't happen for a while. Anyone at least have a clue?

Okay im living with my boyfriends family, my boyfriend has 2 sisters. One is 15 and the other is 6. The 6 yr old is manipulative to her parents, she always says hateful things to her 15 yr old sister. Yesterday, she came into the house, and looked at her and said do you know why daddy doesnt buy you things, cus your not his favorite. So the 15 told her to leave her alone and the 6 yr old wouldnt so she threw a book. The 6 year old played it off like she was dying, she screamed and cryed to dad, and dad came in and punished the 16 year old and screamed at my boyfriend,he didnt do anything. Dad is very violent whe angered and doesnt even access the whole story. The 6 year old is very manipulative to him, whenever she doesnt get what she wants dad makes sure of it. We try to confront him but it becomes an all out hellstorm. How should i access the situatuon??

Me and my mom have not talked for 8 years now... It all started when I was 13 we would always argue and she would always get after me and hit me... I got tired of it and moved with my dad... After I moved with NY dad she tried getting me back saying "sorry" but my dad went to court and filed custody over me... Deep inside I wanted to be with my mother , I had and still have so much love for that women I'd give my life for her...however she has 4 other kids so idk if I'm ever on her mind... Today my grandma said that ever since I moved here with my dad that I'm allowed to contact my mom or to look for her whenever I want to see her... But I just dislike the fact that in these 8 years she never looked for me... And Just stopped contacting without saying anything to ... Is it right that i have to be the one to look for her...?

When I cough, they think I'm just trying to be qwerky. They also think that me coughing is clearing my throat. So like a few nights ago my Mom came into my room telling me to stop clearing my throat. It's like they have no idea that I'm sick. I even told them, and they just go like "Oh Ok". They think I'm just trying to be qwerky

She always looks right at me whenever I see her, and almost examines me. She will say "your skin has got a lot better". She notices any makeup I wear, and always comments "oh that looks nice", which makes me self conscious. She will stare at my body and then say " you have lovely slim feet", it freaks me out. Then when I try to be have a normal conversation. I was talking about how I am getting fitter, but still have a long way to go. She looks me up and down and goes well the only way to do that is get into the gym. I just feel she judges my outer appearance so much, and not that all the comments are bad, I just don't see the need? I don't think it is normal to notice everytime your daughter is wearing a different color lipstick, these tiny details, it freaks me out?

I never had a girlfriend despite having a good job, and not being an alcoholic nor a drug user. I'm not close to being rich, but I can afford to live by myself and saving money to someday start a business. I already gave up on the idea of marriage; Just trying to come to terms with always being alone.

I'm 28 and am thinking of moving out after having had to move back in with my parents. The up side is I would be moving in with good friends, I'd be getting away from my abusive mother, I have money saved up and can transfer my mental health help to my new state. The down side is, it's two states away, I'm only guaranteed social security (I'm disabled) for three years and I'm worried about how I'm going to make a rent if I get kicked off of social security. I'm also afraid to leave my mom alone because she was widowed two years ago when my dad died. I'd be moving away from my whole family and my best friend. I want to move because I can't live with my mom's abuse anymore but I can't afford to live on my own. What should I do? Would I making the right decision by moving? Help!

I am a 28-year-old with a license but nobody will let me drive their vehicle I have offered to pay my mom my half of the insurance and gas but she still refuses to let me drive and won't give me a reason yes I get that it's her car and she has a right to say no but I can't become a good adult driver or a confident one if nobody ever lets me drive I have done and said everything I can to convince her but I can be trusted with her vehicle but she still won't let me drive she won't even get in the car with me and let me drive that way either and when I tried to touch her car keys or hold them in my hand she yanks them away like I'm a child and won't even let me touch them and if I'm sitting in the car while she goes into a store she takes the keys with her and won't leave them in the car with me she knows I am not going to steal her car or take it for a joyride but she still refuses to trust me everyone else I know gets to drive and has their own vehicle or drives their parents car I can't afford a vehicle at the moment but I'm trying to save up for one as hard as it is I don't know what my mother's problem is but my dad taught her to drive and taught me so there is no reason for her to think I'm a terrible driver I don't understand her her why she is being this controlling over her vehicle but I'm getting frustrated at this point and nothing I do seems to worki'd appreciate anyone's thoughts on this

I am visiting my dad and step mother for about a few days and they were under the impression I was moving with them. I have been trying to go home since Friday my real mother doesn t have as much money as them so she went out on a limb and booked me a plane ticket which my step mom made me miss by hiding the keys. So now my mom doesn t have anymore money. Today they were supposed to get me another flight but coincidentally waited too late now I can go until tomorrow. Now they are asking for more money to go half on an airplane ticket in which my mother doesn t have money for and they know that. I have my one year old son with me and I want to go home. And also me and my step mom got into a physical fight so we aren t getting along too well my dad is taking up for her. I want to go home. I m 20 btw.

My mom rarely listens to me, even when I'm right..basically the toilet in my sister and I's bathroom is terrible, so it gets clogged easily. It clogged today so I was trying to plunge it, which usually works. No matter how long I tried, the plunger wasn't working so I asked my mom to help. She wouldn't help at first but after two hours of plunging she finally came up. She told me to flush it while plunging, but I said no because literally every time she's done that it overflows, but of course she didn't listen so it overflew. This was three hours ago, and I'm still cleaning her mess. She said it's my fault because I couldn't get it to work, but idk because I specifically told her not to do that because it only ever makes it worse. Like it's still not fixed and it took me from 11 pm-1 am to get her to "help," but it only made it worse. What should I do?

I'm extremely unhappy. If that isn't enough information right there, here's a little bit of background: I work with people that have mental disabilities & behaviors. It's getting to be too much. I've been here 2 years and 4 months. At first it was great for what it was. Now we have two new residents who are horrible. One of them is completely there mentally he is just physically handicapped. Anyways he is constantly kicking me,grabbing my fingers and twisting them and hitting/punching. Calling me ALL types of disrespectful names. Now I'm a 5"5 23 year old and he's a 240 lbs 6"4 man. Now the other new resident is completely DEPENDENT (which is BS because that's not what type of home we are, or so I thought and they made us to believe) is so nasty to staff. He's always calling me ni**er (I'm white) calling us "mother *******" etc. you can imagine. He SCREAMS all night LONG for no reason. You guys I don't know how much more I can take. The only bills I have are my car payment $170, insurance $120 and my phone $60 and my dog supplies every month. Ilive at home with my mom bc I'm in school and I can't afford to live on my own. Plus I have a german shepherd and I couldn't keep her in a tiny apartment all day at my mom's she can run and play with to her dogs and be around people constantly so that's why I'm still at home. I have my mom's blessing to quit and look for something else But it feels wrong but at the same time I want to cry when I'm at work. On top of those 2 we have 4 more residents. Only 2 staff on at a time. We do everything all te personal care, we shower everyone daily, medication 3x a day for everyone, injections, dishes, we have to mop the entire house every night on top of everything for a measly $9.50 an hour :( our boss takes advantage of us. I just can't do it anymore. I feel like a failure. also I do pay for my own gas, food and I pay rent to my mom as well. That's why I had to ask her first because I do not want my mom supporting me. I pay mine and my dogs own way.

Can someone else offer this kid help as well flag it talm them down this kid claims to want to kill their whole family please someone

I am very stressed out. To start off I had to do a colonoscopy yesterday I kept telling everyone I was no having it done. They kept telling me I had to do it due to family history of colon problems and cancer. It got to the point 2 hours before my procedure I was told if I did not go I was getting kicked out of my house. I am very modest and was uncomfortable being naked even with a blanket and sheets I'm still naked. My colon problems are constant diarrhea with cramping and very slight bleeding on rare occasions. I told doc I could handle my problems by myself she was upset she ended up taking me to the appointment and guess what the results were. They found nothing just like I told them but they didn't listen. I did not sign a consent form for anesthesia but for them to take biopsies well I was out in twilight sleep. They damaged my right hand I can not use it and when I try to it's a sharp pain shooting through it. I was told to do another colonoscopy and a endoscopy but I'm not doing anything every again. I am trying to figure out what to do. I really just want my records deleted and to never go back to the doctors but not sure they will delete them. I'm being told I'm acting like a child and need to grow up but they don't understand I did not want help with my health it's my business not theirs even if it's my mother I still don't want her help and they are constantly yelling at me over how I'm apparently acting. Any help/ advice is great. is it even possible to have my medical records deleted. i am never going back to the doctors i cannot trust them at all not after this and all my last doctors appointments i am a chronic migraine sufferer i have had a migraine for almost 4 years straight it never goes away ive done all kinds of tests and they dont find a single thing i stopped going to the doctor a year ago cause i lost all hope just like now. you could just say im depressed but thats how i feel right now. i need my records gone After a while of talking to a friend about this. i am going to go get some antidepressants. i know there is nothing i can do about any of this stuff its already done and in the past i need to forget it but its hard for me to forget anything. i have been through so much in my life from being raped, molested and beaten to anything else and all my life i have bottled my emotions up and i cant do it anymore. you can keep answering if you want but im going to just give up and live life.

I had smoked twice before. But, then I did it in the basement at 1 am. Noe, I just did it in my room because the basement is flooded. I thought that since my window was open that would lessen the smell. I'm 15 by the way. Anyway my mom had apparently opend all the windows. The whole house now smells like weed. I dont want my friend to get in trouble. However, my sister says that it smells like my other sister's weed. I don't want her to think I stole weed from her. She is a mom anf i love my neice to pieces. What should I do. By the way I was given the weed for a way to relax from exams. Everyone I know is going to kill me. HELP!

My older cousin is gorgeous and is favorited by everyone in my family. They treat her so differently from me and it makes me sad. i get so insecure when I'm around her and I don't know what to do

Please...my parents are divorced and don't want to have anything to do with each other. My mother, father, and I all live in different countries. I am in the states living with family friends. Both my parents are still supporting me and want the best for me. But my father...it's been super rough for him and our situation is really not a common one. My mother has her family and is alright. Not my father, he's had to deal with a lot with our situation. I can't tell my mom. But he has an illness which he is not taking medication for and he is depressed. I will be visiting him over the summer, in just a few days, and he has informed me that he can't take it anymore. He wants me to be by his side as he takes his own life. I cannot tell anyone and I have nowhere to ask for help. You don't understand. He's constantly telling me about it and how life is pointless, how there is nothing else left here, and that he wants to die. He doesn't believe in afterlife he just wants an end. My family is just so messed up and I'm just in a hole I can't get out of. I've lost so much and now I am going to lose a parent. Everyday he tells me how he sees life, how it's all horrible, how nothing matters, how he doesn't know how to go on. I can't tell anyone but I'm suffocating. He means it. He wants me to be by him and his bottle of pills. What do I do. I already know it's inevitable. My efforts just weren't enough. It's too late. I don't know what to do. What would you do. Help. This isn't a joke

15 year old girl here, fairly fit, well-kept despite some acne. Mother always tells me she never thought her daughters would be like "this" - her idea of not feminine. She wanted daughters that would get weekly mani-pedis with her and beg for designer clothes on Christmam. She doesn t even pretend to care about the fact that I am passionate about great games. Playing games for me is fun, and I meet lots of new people through them, and hear so many new stories. I asked her to stop calling me a "gamer" because of the negative correlation. So now that s all she calls me. When I ask her to stop, she says "you re just guilty". I have nobody in my family who I can talk to about my hobby, and it really really hurts that she treats me this way because I enjoy video games. I don t know what I did wrong.
