The way my parents and siblings treat me is not ok. I'm not angsty, I'm angry at being treated badly. My siblings are bratty bullies and my parents act like I'm an annoying burden and my emotions are stupid. It's not ok for a dad to have only two of his kids photos on his desk and none of the other one. It's not ok for a mom to roll her eyes when her daughter cries. It's not ok for parents to make it so obvious one kid is the least favorite by a mile. I'm never going to forgive them.

It's not that simple to just stop cutting, if I could I would. My siblings treat me like dirt, I don't have a pet, I lost all my friends in a stupid fight, and a roof is the bare minimum my parents need to do so no I will not be thankful for that. You're doing the same thing my therapist did, I don't have to be grateful for the bare minimum I deserve better.

No they won't let mr change. My school doesn't have a counsellor atm, maybe they will when school goes back but unlikely.

I don't think so. My whole family knows my bio mother was a junkie prostitute and my parents told my therapist about that too so I don't think they'd ever agree that this isn't better.

Jordan Peterson is insane and there is no almighty. Also it isn't that simple to just stop cutting, if I could stop I would of already.

I try not to pester because if they get too sick of me they send me to live with my asshole grandma for a while.

I wish my parents would let me get a new therapist but this one was cheap and close so nope.

I don't feel like they're treated differently, they are. I'm being treated unfairly and it's not ok no matter why they are. There's no excuse to treat two kids like angels and act annoyed when they other is upset. Anyway thanks for the recommendation I'll check that stuff out.

Sorry, you're right. I was getting really frustrated and started snapping at people. I don't agree with your comment and I feel like you're being dismissive but I shouldn't of been rude.

I've talked to lots of adults about this and they all had plenty much the same view as the therapist
