My father ignores me as a punishment, he has been doing it for 3 days now. I feel like if i could't breath and I am really anxious because of that mother f*cker who I usually call as dad. Is that any kind of abuse? How can I cope with it? My next T session is om 2 weeks and I wanna cut myself again and I am also been self-medicating me ( but only with nicotine)
I'm really sorry to hear that you're feeling this way due to your father's behavior. Being ignored as a form of punishment can be emotionally distressing and can have a significant impact on your well-being. It's important to remember that you are not alone, and there are people who can support you through this difficult time.
The pattern of your father ignoring you for an extended period of time can be considered emotional abuse. Emotional abuse includes behaviors that undermine your self-worth, create fear, or erode your sense of self.
In terms of coping with this situation, it can be helpful to reach out to someone you trust, such as a family member, friend, or teacher, who can provide support and validation. Communication with a trusted adult who can intervene on your behalf may be important in addressing this issue.
It is concerning to hear that you're experiencing distress and have thoughts of self-harm. It's important to prioritize your safety and well-being. If you feel you are in immediate danger or cannot keep yourself safe, please reach out to emergency services or a crisis hotline in your region.
In the meantime, there are some coping strategies that may help you manage your distress. These include deep breathing exercises, grounding techniques, engaging in activities that bring you joy or relaxation, and seeking support from helplines in your country for immediate help.
Please remember that professional help from a therapist is crucial in situations like this. If your next therapy session is in two weeks and you feel that you need more immediate support, consider reaching out to your therapist to discuss the possibility of scheduling an earlier session or explore other resources that are available to you.
Take care of yourself, and remember that you are not alone in this. There are people who care and want to help you through this difficult time.
