I divorced my family.
I went to visit them after being away in the real world and struggling myself.. What I discovered was that they were all insane.. My brother who is 44 years old controls and terrorizes them.. He doesnt have any desire to ever move on his own.. Yelling and screaming is an everyday occurance.. My father abuses my mother verbally.. When I saw this I wanted to get them all into concelling but they all turned on me and made me the troublemaker.. It was sooo sick being there and nobody wants to change.. They are all insane and I cant ever talk to them again.. I have no family now.. I have nobody to ever give me support for my own issues, like I have untreated bipolar, the real deal not the watered down version.. Nobody is there for me .. Not my pastor, mental health rejected me saying I didnt need help.. I cant turn to anybody for help with this crippling disorder.. I feel very alone now and wonder whats the point.. I am seeking help from people and am being rejected.. I really dont want to suffer anmore. I need your advice.. Last night I was thinking of buying a gun.. Scared me thinking this way…

Where were you?
You can also watch events on Help.com as they happen
suicide is never the right answer. You’ll just end up hurting more people :S and trust me every bodies family sucks :S you’d should hear some of my family horror stories lol. Also there is people out there who can help you - you just need to find them!!! tell them that you do need help and that they are wrong. Tell them exactly how you are feeling etc …
Yes Ditzy is right, find people around you who listen. Try to make friends where you can go to when **** gets rough at your family. Everybody needs a time out from home
omce and a while.
Ditzy in all due respects not everones family sucks,, in my case its totaly insane and if the authorities knew what was going on they would be taking my brother to a hospitol.. He is violent and terrorizes them, no exageration.. As for finding someone to help me I tried for years and made all kinds of pleas for help and nobody listens or takes me serious.. I dont know what else I could do..
I take you serious.
I know that there can be a need to break with your family. I had to do it too.
Other reasons, but sometimes it is the only way to continue in life.
It is very hard though. Disconnecting from your roots isn’t easily done.
If you want to read my story: http://help.com/post/169654-support-n…
About your untreated bipolar, can you explain me why you can’t visit your doctor and/or a therapist?
Well because I was ill all of my life I couldnt work, and was put on disability.. I could barely eat more then some apples and fruit everyday and am going into debt by the tens of thousands.. So affording a doctor or a thearipist isnt in my future.. So I rely on mental health who flately rejected me despite my plea for help..
ok. I am in Europe. Really can’t tell what your options could be overthere.
Let me ask some people for you.

But we are around here for you, also when you find a spot we’d really appreciate it if you keep us updated.
I have this issue that I easily care about people. =)

lol yep - sounds familiar. My mother is a crazy psycho ***** who manipulates everything any body says. She is currently self harming - on her 2nd marriage. Married to a drunk only 9 weeks and already is talk about divorce. She drove my Dad to be an alcoholic (who we all hated coz mother made him look like the bad party - yay for manipulation) my sister and I were always fighting, my other sister was stealing and my brother is a weed/pot user. Trust me families are crazy. Nobodies is perfect.
Also if your brother is that bad maybe he would be better off in a hospital. If you wanted to get better you would find the help. Tell your pastor he is wrong - tell them everything. It sounds like the authorities dont know half the story. Hope the Christian dude emails you back. Do what ever you need to do to get help. Scream if needs be. Some times people can be wrong - you need to prove that to them

That looks like it will be a very good link, and it seemed that one could have the first counseltation for no charge.

Hang in there…. I believe that there are always answers to lifes perplexing problems, if we just keep asking questions, sooner or later, we will find the answers we need.
The computer will pull up lots of information on any subject that you type in, and for many situations, there are message boards that deal with each specific subject, like dysfunctional families, bi- polar, loneliness, abuse, verbal abuse, toxic relationships, emotional well being, etc. the links are endless, and you are never alone. There are resources avialble today, for anything that we may face.
The main thing is to never give up, if you do, you don’t progress any further.
Today is the first day of the rest of your life, change can take place.
