It's Not A Real Problem If You Are Not Hiding It...

I mean, assuming that your parents are decent, understand your increasing need for privacy and all of that, just how do they give you more space and such while you are self-injurying?

You haven't been around a long time, so will have missed @Saelben's posts over the time he's been here. He doesn't have decent parents. They're abusive, not the normal concerned parents you are assuming.

@BuckarooBanzai thats what I started thinking after calling them ducks maybe just scared and not dealing with it well. I thought maybe I was too hasty because of things that's coming up for me right now with my parents.

@sun seeker ah I see then I stand by my first post total dicks.

@Saelben I'm so sorry your having to go through this. All the abuse and trauma is in a the past for me and I live with it daily. I sometimes forget it's some people's present, that hurts me deeply to know how you're suffering at the hands of those who should protect you. :(

Actually, they are a lot less abusive in the past few months, especially because I'm growing stronger and stronger, so at the point where I could easily kick the shit out of them or even kill them, they refrain from some stuff, but still, stuff happens from time to time...

@Panda Bear
But yea, since now they cannot do much when I'm in a somewhat functional state, they are most likely to bash me when I'm feeling the worst. Because then there is the lowest chance I will do anything.

@sun seeker
I'm getting better at dealing with it over time.

I do not know any solution that works, basically, the only thing that works is to hide everything well enough so they don't notice, which is basically not talking to them about problems at all. And it works because in that case I only deal with them complaining about me not talking to them

That's not the way it's 'supposed' to work, but sometimes that's the way it is. Staying under my parent's radar screen worked for me. (At least I think it did! :confused:) They don't pick very helpful ways to help because they can't. That's them, not you. Focus on taking good care of you, if that's at all possible. (Someone has to and YOU are probably the only person available to do it.) :hug:

Hope I didn't come off wrong. I wasn't trying to make your parents out to be saints.

Nah, it's okay, I understood :hug:
