What do you do when you feel like a failure & suicidal?
I’m 16. My dad emotionally and verbally abuses me. He calls me a freak show, weirdo, anti-social, stupid, loser, and other things like that. He treats me as if I am this worthless. My dad jokes about how one day I’ll end up in the projects or public housing. I have this constant battle in head where I am thinking that MAYBE I really am worthless. Maybe my dad is the only one that has the guts to tell me that I am.
My step mom is an alcoholic that gets drunk and yells at me and accuses me of abusing her dog when I was only petting him.
My self esteem is very low. I don’t really many good qualities in myself. I am socially retarded. I only have 21 friends on Facebook while other people my age have 500. I never talk to people due to my low self esteem. I won’t even put a picture of myself on my Facebook. I don’t even bother with my appearance anymore, I never do my hair so it looks like this thick frizzy mess. I only wear baggy black t-shirts even though I am skinny. I stopped doing my make-up. Who cares if I’m not attractive? Guys don’t notice me. I go after the loser/abusive guys that no one else wants.
I get purposely excluded from family events. They didn’t want me at their wedding or reception because I guess if I would have been there then I would have ruined their special moment.
I was bullied in school until I was 13 years old. After the bullying stopped, my dad started bullying and abusing me at home. I tried killing myself once when I was 14 but I never told anyone. Sometimes I want to kill myself because I feel like this nuisance in everyone’s life. My presence *bothers* people apparently.
I am afraid of going out in public because I’m scared that someone will start picking on me like my dad does.
I have ultimately hit ROCK BOTTOM.
What do I do?
okay first of all let me say that I am very sorry that your life is like this. Mine was like that only include my dad saying he doesn’t love me, physical abuse from stepmom (for example to push me down stairs) and I had cancer and have had to deal with the changes that it has permanently ruined but yeah similar. Second let me say that this may sound harsh but you have to stop feeling sorry for yourself. I’m 19 and still have managed to get to college. change your attitude. Your dad and stepmom are not great human beings but letting them make you want to kill yourself lets them win.

I am going through my second divorce. Each wife has left me for another man. The first divorce was so devastating I considered suicide. But this time I have been studying my Bible and have been cultivating my faith in Jesus Christ and it has made all the difference in the world! Everyone says I’m a new person. Even my wife who is divorcing me says I’ve become a "better man". I am actually happier now than I’ve ever been in my 54 year old life!
So here are the steps I took to survive divorce #2. First, I wanted a closer relationship with God so I began praying to him 3 times a day. At first I felt like no one was there to listen but I remained consistent in my praying and eventually found that God was hearing me all along! I discontinued my cable TV service as I had evaluated the time I was wasting watching sensless (and Godless) television and I decided to replace that activity with listening to Christian radio/cd’s, Bible study and prayer. I haven’t missed TV at all!!!!! Then, since the Bible says "Seek first the kingdom of God" I decided to pray every morning before I even took my first steps each day – I literally roll out of bed onto my knees and begin each day praying. Then I start Bible reading. These are my top priorities before doing anything else! It’s my way of "putting God first." In my prayers I confess all my known sins, ask God for forgiveness, I asked Him to save me because I have placed my trust in His Son Jesus Christ (I thought I had already been saved – but then had doubts so I wanted to make sure.) I ask for help with my faith/unbelief, I ask for clarity and wisdom and for a closer relationship with Him. I also asked God to help me be a reflection of His glory and love to others. I am not telling you all this to be bragging or to sound "holier than thou". I’m telling you what worked in a wonderful way for me. The simple practice of praying and reading my Bible on a consistent basis has truly changed my life and I know it will change yours. I also joined a wonderful church and listen only to Christian radio which keeps things in a positive perspective. I applaud you for coming on here and reaching out for help. Simply cultivate your faith in God during this difficult time and it will comfort you like you won’t believe! Make conditions favorable for God to fill the void. Eventually – You will know that God loves you incredibly and that will override anything anyone else makes you feel. (It overides the rejection I was getting from my wife bigtime!) I will remember you in my prayers.

Well, I’m having similar problems with my mother ever since I was about 8. Just keep your head up high and tell yourself you are not worthless bc you aren’t. My mom tells me the same things but I know she is only trying to make herself feel better about things she’s done in the past. I was also made fun of at school… mostly bc of my wieght, if I were you get in a fight and put those peices of SH** in their place. My boyfriend that I have now is 27, he was made fun of and bullied all the time in High School unlike me he never fought back since he hadn’t he hid himself in his own world, but ever since he met me he’s been better and talks more clearer.
I am pretty anti socail myself bc most girls are too dramatized for me to be around. I usually hung out with the guys.
The situation with your dad is obviously an idiot, and your step mom is nothing but a loser getting drunk all the time. If your dad or your step mom hits you for no such punishment YOU CALL THE POLICE!!! My father is a police officer, you HAVE to call them if your parents are abusing you.
Now, committing suicide is just out right dumb, I thought about it too a few times in the past but I have finally found a light at the end of the tunnel. I am 18 now, I have found someone that would give me all the love and support I want and need, and I have a job.
Just keep your head up as long as possible, it won’t be too much longer then you’ll be out on your own.
Email me if you want any advise or just someone to talk to mpence16@yahoo.com
Stay strong =D

Even though your situation does suck, I gotta admit, you are the one making it sound so bad. You shouldn’t be your own worst enemy. Everyone else is dragging you down into the dirt but you’re the one staying in the dirt. I know you’ve heard it before but everyone feels the way you do at sixteen. You’ve got to believe things are going to get better. You can only go down hill so far that eventually things will look up but that will only happen if you allow it to happen. Do something for yourself like learn japanese or get your grades up so you can get a scholarship and leave or even join the military if you feel like you’re going nowhere. In some instances it is at rock bottom that people turn to God. I’m not trying to preach to you but to know that there is someone and someplace out there bigger than this is comforting to me.
The fact that you are reaching out to people like this is good. It means that some little part of you wants to make a difference.
Trust me you’re not alone. I just graduated high school and can’t get a job ANYWHERE. Even at friggin Taco Bell. So I decided I would join the Army for a few years to see different places become a medic and get some life experience under my belt. As it turns out I’m most likely not going to get in because of my bad knees. That’s how bad shit is where I can’t even get into the military. But I figure sometime everything’s going to be 0.K. because I have one goal in life to become a firefighter. That keeps me going whether I get hired when I’m 18 or 38 I just can’t make it through life without doing this one thing.
Just don’t let the world bring you down. Killing yourself won’t solve anything. I promise things will eventually get better. God bless.
