I honestly don’t know what to do. Â I tried to tell my parents my problems but they say that they’re stupid reasons and people go through worse stuff. Â I pretty much don’t have anyone to talk to about my problems. Â I self-harm. Â It started when my uncle committed suicide, it pretty much shattered my heart. Â Then one year later my best friend died. Â That pretty much broke me, and last summer I sat there in the hospital after my game to stay with my grandpa, and I watched him die. Â That’s when I started to get depressed, after everyone around me was dying and I couldn’t do anything. Â Useless. Â But my childhood was also ruined by my older step-brother. Â He always volunteered to baby-sit when I was like 5. Â He did horrible things. Â As a child I was sexually abused, and physically abused. Â He thinks I forgot but how can someone forget something like that. Â There’s pretty much nothing here for me, my friends all drifted apart from me, my parents ignore me, I have nothing to make me want to get up in the morning. Â Tell me now, are my problems stupid?

Nobodies problems are stupid, you know what I can tell you that I know Forsure? You deserve a lot better and you shouldn’t let anyone belittle your problems big or small they still effect you and that isn’t fair
the person who should be depressed and contemplaiting the size of their problems is your step brother, not you. he is the one who needs to feel isolated and alone. you need to make someone realize how sick he is, so you may begin to feel better
Your problems are not stupid. You know the truth. Others in your life will ignore this truth because they do not want to face it. My parents always swept everything under the rug when I was growing up. Keep reaching out. Reach out to be reached. There is no judgment here, just those who want to listen and understand, and not demean you by giving you advice.
