Your parents are the ones who are ungrateful. You dont do drugs, you are not lazy, you have a job, you are respectful. They are just a bunch of loving control freaks who want to feel like they have control over you even though they dont even have control over their own loving lives.
Pretty much. But I could do more work around the house to help them. That's the least I could do even though I've got a rare amount of time to spend outside of work.
I did not read the op or any of the thread
I would just like to say, I'm glad that you put rant warning in the title. More people should definitely do this for their rant threads
Lol thanks :D
I understand the desire to move out, and I feel it too, my parents were always less than fair about a lot of things, but pretty soon I'll have a place of my own.
I guess my advice to you is that things will get better, they always do, no matter how bad it seems. I've struggled with Bipolar II (undiagnosed for many years, misdiagnosed as depression) and Schizophrenia, and there were times when I've wanted to die and tried to, but I'm feeling so much better now and I haven't sh'd in years and all my scars are faded, and I'm getting engaged in less than six months, it's so much better than my life was two years ago, and I'm sure you'll find that life usually works itself out with time. Hang in there
I've been there as well. I have a little bit of Bipolar, but a slight bit. Dealt with some hardcore depression and such and my parents never really helped me feel very good about myself even though they were trying to. My parents are good people and they intend good things, but they suck at some parts of their parenting. lol
I've never self-harmed but I've thought of Self Delete a few times. But I've never been in a very severe situation to the point to actually try. I plan to be engaged as well within another four years. :D
Go to school and get a job that pays loasemone so when you move out you have enough to support yourself. Working at Mc. Donalds won't help you that much.
Oh yeah, McDonald's is only my first job. I get paid $7.50 an hour, so 25 cents above minimum wage. Not bad for a first job. lol
I do plan on moving on sooner, though.
