We can't choose the family we are born in to, your family didn't deserve you, you're too good for them.
As for social services, (not that I'm defending them because taking that long is awful) but it's not like how it used to be. There is so much red tape and nonsense to go through that social workers hands are tied. Where as in the past, one word and you'd be out of there.
None of this is your fault, you didn't ask to be born, to be stuck with vile humans as family, you deserved help that didn't come.
Would you say it was the zebra's fault for being chased by the lions? For being born a zebra? That zebra can't be at fault for being the prey that lions chase, just like you can't be at fault for the actions of others around you.
I begged my social workers to take me out, I begged school...My brother had put me in hospital repetidly...but they never did anything..
amazing things?..
You're still going, despite everything that's happened to you, you're still going. I'm impressed. So keep going, keep doing amazing things, grow, learn, LIVE. Marry Jessie J.
Live?...I'm living..but not enjoying it...I guess I'm just breathing..
Well at the moment, just breathing is good enough. If you carry on just surviving for a while longer, things will start to change and you will be able to be happy. Concentrate on being alive for now, and enjoying it will come later.
seems to be just getting shittier..
What needs to be done now?
I need to get help?.
I haven't contacted them yet due to being busy, I'll be contacting them tomorrow, Thanks MR.
Tour a glacier in Iceland and see the northern lights
Learn to ride a motorbike
Get a degree
?
I want to become a social worker for looked after children as a career, Get a place to live in a city where i dont have family..and where nobody knows me..(except my friend im staying with)...
I've known you for a while, and you ALWAYS pull through, that shows your strength. You're reaching out, which means you want to get help, and that you want the support to get better and achieve everything you possibly can and to fulfil your potential.
You can do anything you put your mind too, getting a degree is possible, it may seem impossible and that you're incapable of even getting there, but that's because at the moment all you see is this darkness and no hope for things to ever get better. (Correct me if I'm wrong)
Keep holding onto hope, Em. You can do this, and you can get through this.
You can do that.
Done...
Bye.
Please get medical help if you need it. Your life is worth more than you believe right now.

I know everything I say means nothing, but go forward and ask for as much help as you need. Even, if like me you're faced with hospital admission, it's for the best and will help you as much as possible..
Keep on going....
Im staying at someone else's house today with my friend and the first thing I packed was my blades. Mums carrying on to tell everyone ive died or that she doesn't have a daughter called emily ive lost everyone...
It was very brave of you to tell your friend about how you have been feeling and the thoughts that you have been thinking Did it help talking to your friend about it?
You haven't lost everyone even if it feels like that. It can be hard for parents to know and see their children going through what you are going through and the words she uses maybe not the best ones but it could be a fear in her and that is why it comes out different.
You are doing well in telling on your thread what you are feeling and remember we are here to support you *hug**hug*

Wanting to feel loved and accepted and wanted by someone who should, but knowing i never will be..
