Ugh I feel so horrible thinking my life is getting worse when other people have it worse then i do.

My parents used to abuse me and my mom went to a mental institution and just came out. Before she went she was always judging how I looked and called me fat and a **** and alot of points. But she came out and she STILL does the same thing as she did before. The abuse got WAY better, but the mental abuse she does kills me. I dont know what to do I’ve been feelings extremely depressed and the only thing that makes me feel good is being with my friends, but im not even allowed to see them because of my mom. Can someone help me think of what to do, because my brother had the same thing done to him and hes still unstable but i love him. My moms just not a good person the way she judges everyone.
If someone can help me through my depression it would be GREAT!
and i love good quotes so lay em on me

Are you under 18?? If you are under 18 and living with her, I would call one of those hotline things and tell them and see what they can do. If your 18+ just forget about her. Unless of coarse your brothers under 18 and lives with her than I would call a hotline thing again. I had a Magnificent Mother and I cant imagine what I would be like if it wasnt for her. Unfortunatley she died when I was 14, but I feel blessed to have her in my life for those 14 yrs.

“A casual stroll through the lunatic asylum shows that faith does not prove anything.”

“And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you. “

By throwing these two quotes at you, I’m trying to say that (from the second one): if you keep looking into the abyss (depressing things) it will keep staring back at you.

As for the first quote; you’ve got to stop worrying, it does nothing, because only actions produce responses.

lol. Suicide prevention. I dont think your quite there yet. I was thinking more around the lines of a DCFS type thing so you can be moved away from her if you feel it’s needed.

Erm… Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass, it’s about learning to dance in the rain.
Also, studies show wealth has nothing to do with happiness, so if that’s your concern I wouldn’t worry about it too much.

tell her to **** off and go hang out with your friends, if she calls the cops, tell the police what she is doing to you, i bet that will shut her up. If that doesnt work, call for help, abuse is abuse, verbal or physical. also, just know that what she is saying is not true, keep positive.

you might want to go counseling. i dont know the reason why your mother would do that to you, but was she also abused when she was a kid?
becareful in picking your friends though, pick the ones that would encourage you to do good things and be better in life and not only satisfy your emotions.
btw best quote; come to Me all you who labor and are heavy laden, I will give you rest. jesus said it, i love it when i get frustated with life.
