friends help: i work in a family entertainment centre. - Help.com



This post left anonymously

i work in a family entertainment centre.

i used to enjoy it untill i started getting blamed for anything that went wrong. i’d spend my day on my hands and knees doing other peoples jobs and not even getting thanked for it. just getting told that i’m lazy and good for nothing. then i go home and look after my poor sick bed-riden mum while listening to my drunk father tell me how worthless i am and how i’ll never make anything otta my life. then i stay a couple of nights in my boyfriends house, get a black eye and half my hair pulled out and told that i’m stupid. then when i try go out and have fun with my friends everyone holds this huge intervention and says i’ve a drinking problem. this is my “happy” christmas.

then leave. check your mom into a really good decent care home near to where your going to and then get the hell out.

none of these people deserve your effort. save up some money and go. then theyll be sorry and regret taking you for granted

I agree with raver barbie. Go crazy, you know? Think back to a moment in your life when you were really really happy, even if it was when you were 5 years old. And go back to what you were doing then! Or if you have a dream, no matter how crazy it is, just take a chance and follow it. Check your mum into a decent care hom like raver barbie said and take a chance to be happy!!! And dump your boyfriend! You can always visit your mum, even every day if you want.
I know it sounds daunting and extremem to do that. And maybe for you it is. I don’t know the full story. But from what you have said, that seem slike a good solution to me.

It sounds to me by what you have wrote and I can only go by what you wrote that you are letting a lot of people walk all over you. Stop doing their jobs for them, you never did say what is wrong with your mom but if you do need to be there for her and you are that is great! As for your father tune him out. As for your friends and they sound like great friends that they truely love and care about you or they would not have done what they did. You can’t get rid of your problems with alcohol. You need to stand up to these people that tell you your worthless and stupid and that includes your boyfriend. When you allow yourself to be used and abused you surround yourself with negativity and I know it is easy for me to say this to you when you are the one going through it, but I have been there and I know how much pain it can cause. Find a new job, and if you can move out of the house and take charge of your life. NOBODY IS WORTHLESS DEAR. Good Luck

Ok, I don’t know how old you are or where you are from. In the US we have “Emancipated Minor” . If you are a minor and need to leave, you might look into that. Also, if you are a minor, this is child abuse. You can google child help and get advice and resources. They can help with your mother.

If you are an adult, can you go to college or find another job so you can leave? Research getting your mother help away from this situation. That place doesn’t sound healthy at all for either of you.

Your boyfriend is a batterer. Call a domestic violence hotline and get advice from people that hear this everyday. You might even seek shelter and consider the police.

Lastly,these people are playing with your head. If you hear it long enough, you might start believing it. Find a counselour that respects your values and start healing. These people are abusing you enough without you abusing yourself with alcohol. This is easier said than done. Try AA or some other support. You sound alone out there, without the proper help.
