    • I was abused if I did something wrong.

      My Mom emotionally abused me every day. She seemed to find a way to put me down all the time. Most of the time it's because of school. (Not finishing homework fast enough, bad grade, ect)

      Take a second and imagine the meanest bully you've ever met. Now imagine living with that person. Yeah.

      My Dad physically abused me. Because he has a job, he's less involved in my schoolwork, so I was able to avoid his abuse. He'll only abuse me if I do something really bad. Unlike my Mom who emotionally abused me everyday, my Dad physically abused me every few weeks or sometimes months. He also threatened to hurt me often.

      The reason I wasn't doing well was because I was being abused. The reason I was being abused was because I wasn't doing well in school.

      As a result I suffered a very deep depression for several years. I also had sleep paralysis hallucinations. I hallucinated about a shadowy demon who only wanted to scary me and make me suffer. I wouldn't say the demon 'abuses' me, but he certainly loves to scare me.

      TLDR: My Mom emotionally abused me every day. My Dad physically abused me every once in a while. I used to cut myself a lot. I also had sleep paralysis hallucinations. I hallucinated about a demon who loved to scare me.

        I'd be willing to vet that you have PTSD.
        :-'(

        Seek out some treatment and or a support group.

        This will not last forever. Hang in there. Do your best and time will set you free.

        • Like I said, this was the PAST, I am no longer abused. Thanks for your support. I really wish I did something before, but atleast I'm free now.

    Its really bad you know, I feel bad for you. I don't know why they do this to you? Or maybe they're too strict parents? But the most important thing is they are your parents, they always care for you though I think they are being too strict and rude to you. My parents are very polite to me. Even when I get F in the result of exam they would only scold me & encourage me to do better the next time. I think you should share your feelings with your parents about how you feel when they behave badly with you. I hope they'll certainly understand your feelings.

    • Thank you for your support! My parents don't abuse me anymore, though. They stopped when the school called because a girl told the counselor that I was planning suicide soon. (It still baffles me that my parents didn't know I was depressed...) My parents abused me because they thought I'd do better, and over time, things started to go really far.

    You got bad grades and your mom was upset? Oh what a horrible person she must have been. Yep, that would be abuse, not care and love.
    Your dad punished you "only abuse me if I do something really bad". Really, and how is that abuse? Aren't you the one who did "something really bad"?
    Fuck those assholes. Yes you were certainly "abused" by a couple who seemed to care and love a shitty kid who got lousy grades and did somethings really bad.

    • You have no idea what it was like. My Mom insulted me every day. Telling me to hate myself. It's not just about bad grades. At first it was, but later on she made fun of everything I do. I was bullied.

      My Dad would beat me up for stupid things. Once everyone in my class got an F on a test, yet he still beat me up. He threatened me a lot.

      By "something really bad" I meant something that happened that I DIDN'T MEAN TO DO. Like if a got an F, or if I didn't finish homework quick enough. I didn't purposely do bad things. To sum it all up, I was insulted or hurt for literally every mistake I made.
