Is it normal that my life turned out this way?

Take care of yourself. Find a friend and talk to them. IF you are hurting you shouldn't do it alone. Everything takes time.

emotionally and physically. If you dont take care of yourself stress may get the upper hand. Dont become an emotional junkie. These reactions you are feeling are normal and healing takes time.

Whatever your mum and dads problems are, they're not about you. Even the money situation is between your mum and dad. Don't take it so to heart.

Be there for your mum and remember you won't feel like this forever, its just going to take a little time.

Leave this one to your mom to sort out as there are obviously a lot of things that she's protecting you from. Support her by saying she should do whatever she thinks is right.

It is not hard to send money - the banks just set up direct debits (as the court will do) from his wages. This is very unfair of him to do this to you all.

Try not to mope around coz I'm sure your mom is really worried about you. Try to be her friend and help her out a little. It's normal to think of yourself but you are your mom's priority but obviously not your dad's.

Don't accept your dad's pathetic little excuses about money etc and if you have a good relationship with him, you could tell him it's really hard for you. I'd say he has pulled the rug from under you which i making you more nervous - coz if he can do this to you, what are others capable of?!

You and your mom will be ok, so don't worry. Let her sort it out officially if necessary.

If you had a BFF you could confide with, it would help! Seek someone out. These feelings will pass though, if you give them time, all will work out.

If you could just support yourself off of love.. some people would be rich. :( sadly this is now how the world works so something needs to be done. He really needs to step it up.

It's normal for people to go through a lot of crap when they are younger - I went through a mess..... so long as you are determined to be the person that you want to be, and really try, you WILL make it.

i agree with babydoll plus , i think he loves you its only money, youll have to plan to get yr own cheer up

Your mom has every right to contact the attorney to attain monetary help from your father! Just remember he left you didn't nothing you do can help or change it just know that he loves you and so does your mother
