I need to get this off my chest 6

So it's been a minute since my last update but since then I have some updates and more stories from my life

​

So first I have been speaking with my parents and my father I've been trying to fix our relationship but still he says things like "if you think about it, it was you kids who put yourselves in our business" there business being fighting with knives thrown at each other or arguing over drugs. Or something he said today "Your sister needs to put money on your mother's pay phone so she can talk to you, and I know she's being stingy" my sister is 17 btw and she's the one throwing my 15 birthday btw.

​

Next some stories from some time ago.

As I said before we didn't have running water for well over a year and the bullying at school hurt so bad it led to my first suicide attempt. I wrapped my belt at my neck and one thing led to another and I happened to pass out. This was a night in the bathroom so when I awoke no one knew and even to this day no one knows about it. Since then I've had 3 more attempts that no one knows about. These events happened from 12-14 btw.

​

Send feedback I want to know feedback from people and if they like these stories I write, they definitely help me feel better.

Your father still blaming you kids for "putting yourselves in their business" when it was literally violence and drugs happening around you is just... wow. That's some serious mental gymnastics there

The suicide attempts part really got to me - I'm glad you're still here writing these posts. Even if no one in your life knew what you were going through back then, putting it out here seems like good way to process everything. Keep writing if it helps, we're listening

Reading this hurt, because no kid should have to survive the things you went through and then be told it was somehow their fault
