Is it normal to actually hate my family and not love them?

Ever since i was little my family as been putting me down. They have called me fat, useless, piece of sh**, and a lot of other stuff that is unimaginable. I don't feel loved by them so im not going to love them. I've been working out so much i feel like im hurting my body. Im 125 pounds and i still don't feel accepted in their eyes. I don't love them now and never did Is this normal? Im 21 I have two older sisters and then my parents. All of them try to run my life. I can honestly say I hate them. Is this normal too? Also ever since I was younger i can remember I always used to turn up my ipod and cry myself to sleep because of the things they were saying. Its just gotten worse with age and i feel like i never even knew or had a family.

    You have to get away from them. All their doing is tearing you down! If you're around people who think you're useless, you will start to believe it. Your NOT useless! You have to get away from them, just like... If you think they're trying to run your life, I don't know, just take off? Don't tell them where your going? Mean, but it doesn't seem like they care. Idk. All I know is that you have to find away to get away from them and get positive influences into your life.

  • Once you're out, try to completely cut contact. They're really not worth your time by the sounds of it. And yes, it's completely normal to hate them with every ounce of your heart.

    that's horrible.

    utterly horrible. please, hon, move out before they cause any more damage. it may be hard, but try to scrounge something up. i'm not on very good terms with my parents, either, and i'm thinking of moving out in a few years.

    all families are inherently messed up. i idolized my mom and dad but now see them for the self-righteous, miserable bastards they are.

  • Agh! I pressed the wrong button!
    I meant to say it's perfectly normal. But I pressed the no button :(
    If they've been treating you like shit from day one, how else are you supposed to feel about them?

  • I'm so sorry for you. I'm not great with my parents, but at least they don't say such horrible things. Get out asap, and seek councelling. I'm ready to bet they've left some damage behind from very young yeaars. Please just get out =/

    I hate my mom and dad too. All they ever did when I was growing up was put me down and make me feel like a would have never amounted to anything.
    I moved out when I was 18 and I never looked back.

    Look at me now, I'm Mr.Dick lol.
    So ya, perfectly normal man!!

    If they are realy acting like you say it is normal for oyu to hate them. - You are not obliged to like people who put you down constantly.
    I agree with marley. Move out, if you are still iving at home. - Bring as much distance between your "family" and yourself.
    You can built your own life and do not need them. - Built it somewhere where they are to far away to sabotage you.
