again, suicide

YOU need to contact whatever state agency is responsible for child welfare down there. Should be in the yellow pages or you can ask local clergy or something.

I agree that you need to leave the house, but you need to do it by the letter of the law.

There needs to be an intervention and not a suicide.

Tomorrow is monday. Make the call.

Get this ball rolling.

Oh please don't leave! You seem like such a nice kid. I think you are pretty well liked on this forum. I know things are bad now, but maybe you can make it better. It just takes time.

 

Listen to Xexon.

 

The whole selfish thing doesnt help. Why she keeps saying it over and over like its going to help isnt doing anything but making her posts useless. So thank you, WanderingSoul, you covered a lot there.

 

How much worse could it be? read a few posts before this btw.

and you spelled hippie wrong.

 

I don't think she's being very nice either. But maybe you should try getting emancipated and going on your own.

 

what do you mean going on my on?

 

Getting emancipated = legally being declared an adult so that you can live on your own.

 

I dont know if I should do it. Nobody knows what Im feeling at the moment. Theyd think Im doing it just because I can. Its like Im not going to win either way. I dont know what Im going to do.

 

Well what will they do? Where will I live?

 

Well, you would have to have a job and be able to support yourself. Maybe Xexon's idea was better.
If you said you were being mistreated, child services would definitely remove you from your home and put you in foster care. But I don't know if you would want that.

 

What's wrong with ME? Hmmmm, nothing. I care about others...IMHO it's a good thing. When you're so wrapped up in your own life and in your own bubble, you forget that there are others out there. Do I think of myself? On occasion, but there are a lot of other people out there that are WAY worse of than me...and I care about them...but I also will tell them exactly what I think - when they ask.

Hey man, at least you have a roof over your head, food in your belly, internet access, clothing on your back, etc. A lot of people in this world don't have that. count your blessings, man...instead of always looking at the bad side of things. Don't come in here asking for advice unless you're ready to hear all sides.

 

With all sympathy and respect to cheech & chong,
I do strongly agree with,DancerAnnie
cheech & chong, You can do what you can to improve the situation as much as you can,and that's a good thing dude.It does'nt sound so great so do what is possible and benefical.Weather it's acknowledged or not Suicide DOES hurt those around you alot!
I would count that out as an option and start looking to what you can do to help yourself.I've got to say alot of people come from bad backrounds and do well.Don't let it consume you man.Look at what you've got.If you're healthy,have a place to live (even just for right now),you have food,computer,etc.and you're NOT in Iraq right now,it does'nt seem that bad.I know some are gonna say that's bullshit but ya know people have gone through worse and become doctors,lawyers and have succeded in thier life and DID'NT kill themselves.There are people all over the world who would love to have the things you do,cause they have nothing!,no food,no shelter,no clean water and are dying of all diseases.I know it sounds like nonsense but it's the truth.

:applause:
Lighten up.We all have problems,PM me and I'll tell you all mine lol.Try to deal with it like we all do.Some people have problems much worse than yours!.Don't kill yourself,get involved in making them better and if you're feeling that shitty go out and help someone else,that will help I gaurantee it.Like I said I do sympathize and respect what you have said.Get over it or do something about it other than complaining and don't put others down for their point of view.We've heard yours it's only right you hear theirs.I hope your situation improves.If you're asking for help from this thread you really don't want to die.So deal with it.It seems to me alot of people have responded so you've got people right here who care.

 

i used to have alot of thoughts about suicide. like serious philosphical stuff, especially durring my sophmore year. but to tell the truth, the ONE THING which kept me from killing myself was how if i did kill my self my mom would have made such a big deal over it........
