hi there... i suggest you talk to them. have an open discussion about your problem. its ok because they are only your family members. if you dont talk to them, then who else will you talk to in order to solve your problem... so talk to them, be very open and frank and i'm sure things will get solved. all the best.

Follow your own spiritual path, but let them come to their own conclusions about their path. You can only be accountable for yourself. Just be the best for yourself you can. Be peaceful and try to live by example. Maybe your family will notice without needing to say anything.

Talk to your parents about it and see if they will tell your siblings that you are the responsible one in their absence and that they need to respect you.  They of course will need to back you up if your brother and/or sister do not listen to you.\n\nYou can also reward their good behavior and withhold your attention when they are being bad to you.

Go to a counsler a teacher a friend someone you can trust. Get out of there! Remember Jesus said we should love one another? Well abuse is not loving you. Find some family you can life with that are not like your parents! Please! and killing yourself..... suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem remember that!

You have to take care of yourself and not worry about what others expect from you.\nAsk your parents to speak with your sister and explain your situation.\nIf your sister continues to call and upset you, dont take her calls.\nShe sounds like a very selfish person and not very considerate.\nPlease take care of yourself first, and dont allow anyone to upset you.

Be honest with your family. If they love you they will come to accept your life choices. You have to be true to yourself and not live your life for other people.

they are trying to protect u, sweetie. my mom and dad used to give me a hard time, too, but i realized why now since i've grown up. they are trying to protect u from any dangers that might be able to hurt u in any way. u will realize it when u grow a little older. trust me.

Whatever it was that made them disown you will surely dim as time passes. Give them time to cool off, do a lot of growing up yourself then you make the grand gesture yourself. It may take years, and pride will surely get in the way (on your part or theirs) but in the end having family means everything. Once you grow up and change your ways (if that is it) they will surely see the light.

Well, does "VERY against" mean you being disowned and out on the street with nowhere to live?  If so, make sure you have a safe place to land.  If it's not that drastic, you will have to do it gently and firmly.  Be ready to receive some harsh words and respond without anger as much as you can.  If they truly love you, they will accept you, but it might take some time.

This can be addressed with medication and therapy.  Please contact your local mental health facility for advice.  Before you sic the health department on your family member or start pitching stuff out behind their back, please at least do this.  If you just take over and do things for them, it takes away all their control, and they literally may never speak to you again.  If you care about them,  get them some help but be compassionate.\nThis is an invaluable site for some insight for you and them:\nhttp://www.squalorsurvivors.com

i think u need 2 get more involved in life. take up a hobby(one that involves other people), tell ur friends and family so that they  can support u through this confusing and difficult time and so that they can intervene everytime u feel a little down. u'r not alone in this world, u need 2 tell urself this everytime u start 2 feel desperate. no situation is hopeless. there are lots of people going throgh depression, so maybe u could find a support group if u dont have an understanding family. but in most cases, we tend 2 believe that our families will laugh at us or will think that we are freaks but they turn 2 be really undersatnading and caring. best of luck!!!\nps if u need a friend, mail me at shreyalovesmusic@yahoo.com. i'll be happy 2 help.

Do you have a close friend or a close relative that you can talk with?  Are you in your teenage years, if you are, that can be a trying time.  Maybe you should talk w/a therapist or a minister about your issue.  Please keep trying your best, and stay focused.  You're not doing anything wrong, your just searching for support and guidance.  Try to stay strong.

live everyday to it's fullest. Everywhere you go, people will try to bring you down. Don't let them get the best of you. Tell your family and friends how much they mean to you every time you see them!\n\nyou never know how long you have left on Earth, make every second count!!!

Kayla, \nSometimes things can get pretty low in life and we don't always know why. I have been there and my heart goes out to you now. It seems as though there are those that suffer more than others at times and I know it doesn't seem fair.\n\nThink about the future even though it is hard. Tell yourself that it is going to get better and take one little thing out of your day that may have made you slightly smile and think of it often.\nTalk to your Mom, I do to mine. She is with you, just in a different way. \nSchool is a hard place to find friends, especially girls. They can be very petty! Find them elsewhere. In a good place. Like maybe a support group or something.\nMost of all, say your prayers! He is listening even though at times it doesn't seem like it. Things will fall into place. I promise you that!
