friends help: My parents are getting divorced and now I just want to beak someones - Help.com

Dear friend out there,
My parents aren’t divorced so i can’t really tell you ways to overcome the sadness and confusion.
But they were THIIISSSS CLOSE to!
And maybe they still are.
But i can give you a hug.I can relate.
(*hug*)
Don’t go out there and hurt someone. It’s just not right.
My parents told me to stay out of it because it was THEIR problem and not MINE. I think that’s ***p.
Tell them how you feel man.
Or Run(Excercise) Makes me feel better.
And yes, Coke does you no good but a long term of toothe decay, 5 pound weight gain and no change but even more frustrated.

i like weed better

Look at the bright side, if they do get divorced you will have two homes. you can always run to the other parent’s home when you need a break. Plus they will both feel guilty and try to over compensate by buying you stuff and giving you more attention. cool eh?

Seriously, divorce is no laughing matter, but neither is thinking of drugs. I know it seems very selfish of them. But living together might be more of a hell. Try talking to them and figure out why they are feeling this way towards each other. Let them know you are hurting too. Just remember it is not your fault, don’t blame yourself and don’t try to hurt yourself by any means, this include doing drugs. It’s also a subconscious way of hurting them back for what they are doing to you

Weed is too addictive! Drugs will never help you, I promise. My parents announced they were getting divorced on my 13th birthday and made me choose right then and there who I wanted to spend time with for my birthday. I hated it, it hurt like nothing hell! I went through depression, I thought of suicide, I felt extremely lonely, I got jealous that my dad’s new wife got lots more attention and her kids were spoiled. I had to listen to my dad put my mom down constantly and hardly ever heard an I love you from him. My mom was over religious and my dad tried to go against everything and anything religious.

Point is, divorce SUCKS - a LOT - and the only way I found to make things seem better (and actually eventually become better) was to change MY attitude, because in life that is the ONLY thing I can control - my attitude and my actions.

I know, I want to blame my parents for everything, too, and I wish THEY would take responsibility for everything they are doing to make life harder and miserable - it would be easier than having to deal with it - but blaming them and wanting THEM to change never did anything to change the situation.

This may not be what you want to hear, but sometimes we have to go through hell - and KEEP ON GOING until we find a way out. Stopping to look at all of the bad things happening and focusing on how angry it makes us and how much it hurts will only keep us there longer.

It takes time, but eventually you can make it better if you really try.

Weed is ok to do. Its not addictive or will not kill you. Plus my parents are divorcing I’m 20 now and have been smoking weed since 16. Through my experiences I know that weed is not a gateway drug and all the other lies. I blame my case of divorce on 1. Feminism, think about it. 2. The american life. 3. My self for not being the perfect son, cuz if I was valid dictorian instead of last in class mom and dad would be that much closer. And 4th the first son is always a mistake.

I’m 12 and my parents are getting divorced, my mom is moving away in 3 weeks and I’m really depressed and devastated. I’ve thought of suicide and becoming an emo too, but I will still see both my parents - and they still talk together so not a lot is going to change. But sometimes I cry myself to sleep at night because it’s an emotional pain.

hi, im 20
Listen, try not to feel to bad, i know its hard. but turning to drugs is definitely not the way to fix anything. take my situation for example, about a year ago my parents decided to throw away a 24 year marriage and now im stuck in the middle here,i have a younger brother (10yrs)who im really worried about and i have stopped caring about myself and paying attention to my needs in order to pay attention to his feelings more than mine. One of the ways i try to forget about my problems and issues of their divorce, is by going out at night and jogging up until the point i cant think anymore about the issue and just concentrate on how exhausted i feel from running. i wish u the very best and just think that only time will heal and that at least we still have our parents alive even though they’re separated.
good luck
