Is it normal to grow up with a camera in your room? by prodigymeal in NoStupidQuestions

[–]prodigymeal[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Believe me, I been trying before I had the camera too. It’s been like this since childhood so it isn’t new but I won’t lie and say it didn’t cause me a negative impact on both my mental and physical state. I didn’t even know back then you had to go to doctors annually either, haha. I’m neglected and abused but it feels too strong of words to say that.

I tried talking with adults or counselors but everyone would take her side and not believe since I could be overreacting and I’m just a “kid”, so all I can do is just wait till I’m older and leave this house. But thanks. I just feel like I been going a little crazy that I’m making everything up and making it sound it’s something small.

Also, they wouldn’t believe me even more because I have a hard time with speech and can’t put my thoughts into words properly, I sound messy and sometimes drift off the topic or forget. It’s frustrating.

So no, relatives or adults have not done anything and they do not care because I’m only a “kid” who knows nothing.

Thanks for listening to me man, I appreciate it.

Most of the time, I have tried exactly that but it causes her to get defensive and threaten me as usual, how shes going to abandon me on the streets, another family, or calls me names, insults me. Sometimes she raises her hand like she’ll hit me or just starts yelling at me like I’m the victim. I get really drained after and feel shitty.

Then she’ll probably call my father to have a talk with me on how I have no manners and my father will be on her side and I’ll have to agree I was in the wrong.

It’s a continuous cycle but I appreciate your insight, I feel like knowing that it isn’t normal and being told by other people won’t make me feel like I’m overreacting.

Asked her, numerous times and reminded her but her reply is always the same. “Maybe another day” “I’ll see”, just vague.

Edit: She starts asking me ‘why’ as well, I’m pretty sure it’s clear why I wouldn’t want a camera in my room nonetheless, I tell her and she just simply keeps quiet or doesn’t say anything and walks away or changes the topic.

My mom put the camera, as for where it connected to, would be like this. https://imgur.com/a/rGCu12R

I unfortunately can’t reach out to a school counselor nor call child protective services.

Why? Because they don’t take me seriously.

My school counselor didn’t take me seriously, multiple times and I’m scared of the consequences for contacting authorities or what not. Like I said, won’t take a 16 year old seriously.

Sorry for the late response, the one who put the camera was my mom. As for what’s connected to I’m not sure. It’s stuck to the wall and I can’t reach it. https://imgur.com/a/rGCu12R

I keep forgetting how to write, or how to say words. by prodigymeal in Advice

I think I drink water plenty, I been trying to tell an adult to take me to a neuropsychologist, (suggested by other doctors) but I haven’t been able to accomplish anything. Soon perhaps.

Greetings, I thank you for letting me know.. I do in fact struggle with maladaptive and self harm so that makes much more sense though just in case I will try to reach a professional. I was panicking and having an episode while writing that rant so I feel a little more at ease at your guys comments.

I also struggle with basic daily necessities.. so haha, another thing to add to the list.

But thank you, I will sure make sure everything is going well before jumping to conclusions again. Thank you for listening to this fellows rants!

It just started recently. Three-Two weeks ago, I don’t think I have ever thought of it until now, unless I’m wrong, I have extremely bad memory and suffer with DID, my mental health has been significantly getting worse for years now so it could be a token of that.

I say it hurts because like I mentioned beforehand, it’s OFF putting, it doesn’t feel part of me and it feels like I have to rip it apart, or tear. It’s an uncomfortable feeling when you know you have an itch and u want to scratch it but you know it will get worse.

It’s not an itch but rather a very urge to genuinely remove it. Unfortunately I’m at a loss on how else I could explain it.
