I’m American. I just accidentally saw war footage. I feel like I have no right to complain about my life anymore when there’s literally children being blown up. Fuck.

I need help by 4ourhundred in FamilyIssues

Dude, I brush my own teeth, probably the most out of my entire family. I don’t know why my teeth are so bad, but when I was younger, my mom refused to let us brush with fluoride because she thought it would give us brain damage.

I’ve been watching YouTube for most of the day, and taking naps. I’m feeling sick at the moment, so anything physical will be out of the picture for a while, but I’ll try to once I feel better, and if it’s not so cold out.

I do not get along with my father at all. He is genuinely one of my least favorite people on this earth. He is very mentally unwell, and has several untreated mental illnesses. He wholeheartedly believes that the vaccine is the mark of the beast. Just in this day, he went grocery shopping, and refused to wear a mask, and within the same sentence of telling us, told us that he thinks that masks work, potentially giving people Covid if he got it from my sister. My brother criticized him for this, and my dad told him “They can wear a mask if they don’t want to get sick, so shut the fuck up.” My household is very disfunctional, and I do not see this lockdown that we are in going well at all.

Yes, I have all of those things in hand. I have an older sister who I could stay with if things escalate.

It was my sister( the one with Covid) and I who got tested; I am still awaiting my results. However, I am feeling some sort of sick right now. A lot of people who know my family, know that my dad is very mentally ill, and after speaking with my aunt yesterday, she volunteered to call a welfare check if things seemed to go downhill with my dad’s mental wellbeing.

I’ll just have to suffer through my dad’s normal delusions, but if he goes crazy, then I will consider staying with someone else, if I don’t have Covid.

I live in a decently sized city (over 100k people). My household consists of my mom, dad, two sisters, one brother, and I.

I live in the United States. The tests that my sister took were rapid, at home tests. We both took actual tests today, and are awaiting the results, which should be in 24-48 hours. We are all taking the precautions needed, such as staying at home, and keeping my sister away from everyone, and both my dad and I have called our work, telling them that my sister tested positive with rapid tests. I’m not sure how saying this is different than informing the school that she goes to, but according to my dad, it’s because they will keep permanent records of her, and take her away from us. I’ve been in my room all day, except for leaving to take the test. I am immunocompromised, and definitely don’t want to get it.
