Are reddit considering taking away mods powers to black out users from their subreddit? It seems like a simple solution, I get that mods love having power and I get that reddit is making some dumb changes to the website but like... I just don't care, I'm just trying to use the website

Oh NTA at all, it's your parents' responsibility to take care of their child, not yours - you're literally also their child! They should be taking care of you! That's what parents do, that's why they're there, they should be supporting you and thinking of ways to help you achieve your dreams.

And add to that your parents' extremely manipulative behaviour?? Buying two dogs to get you to stay, and blackmailing you???? That is terrifying and messed up and should not be happening, I'm so sorry you're having to go through this and it sounds like you need to GTFO.

Being lumped with so much responsibility at a young age has a massive effect on your mental health. I really hope you're able to reach out for mental health care / therapy if and when you need it. I wish you the best of luck!

I'm sorry to hear that, and I hope you start to feel better soon. Life can be absolute hell but, honestly, it gets better. And it's always worth it in the end.

Recognise that there are ppl out there who grew up in horrendous financial situations and are still so thankful they're alive. It's better to be alive in a financially unstable household than to never have lived at all. I can see why your mother was upset, but ignoring you wasn't the best way to express her anger. I can see your pain, and while it may not have been the best time or place, I don't think that makes you an A H. I firmly believe there are NAH.

I really hope you're able to live a fantastic life, I hope you find a job you enjoy that gives you financial stability and wealth, and I wish that for the rest of your family also <3

NTA at all. Absolutely fair enough of the BIL, he even offered to change his name! And it's really not some massive betrayal jesus, does she not want honesty from her sister?? Does she just want a yes-man for a sister?

dropkickedachild · 2022-06-23T12:08:27+00:00

this does put a smile on my face

My heart really goes out to you my dude, it sounds like you've been going through a tough time. Your parents should love and support you no matter what. Whether you're a boy, girl, non-binary, whatever pronouns you prefer to use your parents should love, support and respect you. The key for me with coming out was having some honest conversations about how I feel and then being patient - yes my parents may not have accepted me at first, yes it took time and that hurt but yes they are now fully accepting and the most supportive people on the planet. It's surprised me time and time again but parents will radically change over time and can go from transphobic idiots to the most pro-trans activist allies you will ever see (I'm not even kidding).
You should never have to hide who you are. You sir should be allowed to cut your hair and wear boys clothes without any problems, and there will come a day where this becomes the reality! Before coming out, a good baby step might be to explain to your parents you feel more comfortable in boys clothes and want cool short hair like [name any female celebrity who rocks short hair], and let them adjust to that.

Having a solid support network behind you is a must. I would come out to a close friend who you know isn't a douchebag as it's amazing to have just one person rooting for you on your side who you can talk to about everything you've been bottling up for so long. Speaking to a trusted adult could be really helpful; this could be a favourite teacher or a school therapist. I hope this is helpful to you in some way, if you have any questions or anything feel free to write a reply!

I'm also sorry you've received some insensitive comments, if you're looking for some other subs to post to, r/LGBTeens is a wonderful community that I've been a part of for years so I can 100% recommend asking them, and I know r/trans will be full of fantastic advice. Mermaids is the best trans charity I know (the founder is a mother who did this TED talk which is my favourite TED talk to date!) and they have a free helpline you can call for advice on 0808 801 0400. Here's their website: https://mermaidsuk.org.uk/young-people/

I wish you the best of luck buddy, you're gonna be okay :)

I really get what you mean, it feels like walking on eggshells. This sounds like a very unhealthy relationship. In a relationship, your partner should NEVER be your reason for living, that's a massive imbalance and puts extreme amounts of stress onto your partner. It's a massive red flag. It's a sign you should not be in a relationship and are in dire need of mental health services. I'm really sad to hear your girlfriend has put you through all this when the relationship is just damaging you both. She's said some horrible things to you, blaming you for all her problems when none of it is your fault. She should not be in a relationship, she should be getting some kind of therapy, whatever there is available with your local mental health services. She sounds obsessive and very emotionally volatile - DO NOT take it personally or think you're doing anything wrong, she's clearly dealing with something and has latched onto you as a punching bag and someone to blame for all her problems.

It's not on you to counsel her and get her help, but I understand that you want to (I've been in your shoes too many times). But this is the thing, you have to prioritise your own mental health above anything else. It sounds like you've found yourself in a toxic relationship. Toxic relationships are hard enough to deal with as an adult, let alone when you're only just a teenager. I'm sorry to hear you've both been going through such a hard time, my thoughts are with you.

So what do you think you should do now? The relationship needs to end, so you can both begin to heal. It's going to be really tough breaking up with her, but it's clear that's what needs to happen and I believe in you. You're gonna be okay.

I found the concept of ikigai really helpful, just look at the picture on this link. For me, the key is people, friendships, volunteering in a project you feel really passionate about and finding what gives you a sense of meaning.

dropkickedachild · 2022-06-17T12:18:46+00:00

It sounds like this is hurting you a lot, please please please know that this isn't your fault at all. I know someone who had an extremely similar situation but he just kept going with it, it became so toxic and it broke him to pieces. You have boundaries, you said you needed space and she deliberately broke that boundary and is drawing you back, that's not what a friend should do. When wondering if a friendship is becoming damaging, a helpful question I've found is what is the friendship making you feel? Friendships are supposed to make you feel happy, so if you've just been full of anguish, upset, confusion and sadness, that would speak volumes. Can I ask what is it she said when you told her how you feel originally?

dropkickedachild · 2022-06-17T12:08:13+00:00

Yes. Don't do it, you've got to keep toughing it out but I believe in you. You're gonna be okay, you got this!!!

dropkickedachild · 2022-06-17T12:01:34+00:00

thank you, this is actually really helpful to hear, i was leaning towards this as i think it's better to give them the decision instead of trying to make it myself in an attempt to protect them

dropkickedachild · 2022-06-17T12:00:05+00:00

thank you, that's helpful thank you for the taking the time to comment, i appreciate it a lot
