It all started when I was hit by a car in October. I wasn't badly hurt, but I couldn't graduate this spring like I wanted to because I had to recover. I've been through a lot: -During speech therapy, which I had to go through after the accident, I kept forgetting to do the work my therapist assigned, but she told my dad that I just didn't want to do it. Of course, he believe her over me. -My mom's still as hard to deal with as ever; she's always yelling at me, and complains about how she never gets any help around the house and that no one cares, even though I try to help as much as I can. -My teenaged brother has become a mean, nasty bully. He snaps and curses at me and other people, and never helps out around the house. He used to be so sweet; what happened? -I want some friends, or even a man or woman to love me, but I don't have anybody. I feel so alone. I just need someone to vent to; someone who wouldn't yell at me like my mother does (I do have my dad, but he gets home late.).

Replies EmilyAnn Posted at 1:32 pm on June 5, 2008 That's terrible. :( It sounds like you are definitely not being appreciated for what you do. I understand so well, and it's a VERY shitty feeling. At my job, am so under-appreciated that I could puke. Even though I try my hardest, my bosses come up to me and tell me what a rotten job I'm doing. I am not even fucking kidding you, or exaggerating. Just know that what you are doing now is strengthening you. You are becoming a damn strong person who is perfectly capable of taking care of yourself and others, and even though you're not the recognition for it and actually getting treated like crap for doing nothing wrong, at least YOU are getting ahead. When it's time for you to start your OWN life, you'll be ahead of everyone else. In crappy times, what else can you do but look to the future? ElectricMayhem Posted at 3:25 pm on June 2, 2008 I'm also sad tonight because I feel like no one in my family appreciates me. I stayed at home all day with my 6-year-old terror of a brother, and no one cared about that; no one cared that I made dinner for the family, and no one cared that I caught the puppy each time after my little idiot brother let her escape from the house. I just want to find someone who loves and appreciates me.   silverpolished Posted at 4:34 pm on May 29, 2008 You can vent to me All 3 previous replies displayed.
