Hi you guys ..I don't come here often, hardly ever actually. But i guess i could really use some insight from somebody..So yesh. Things at home haven't been going so well lately. My mom's constantly reminding my brother and I, about her finacial state, which is not good and so on. She has alot of stress I guess you can say but we're really close, her and my brother are the only family i have. Well anyhow, lately she's been obsessed over what I eat. She thinks I'm too skinny, which i'm not. I'm perfectly healthy at about an 110-112 lbs. However she's been threatening me non stop to send me to a hospital and accuses me of not eating, and attempting to create a problem for her. Why would I do that? I do eat to begin with, and I don't know..Then she has this thing where everything I do is not good enough. She's always critisizing me, and i dont know, it gets to me, you know? Because i always held her opinion the highest in my heart, but thats starting to change. I want to get a job, and she has to have a say, I can't work in anything that pertains to school, and she gets upset if I apply any where that does not have a professional office atmosphere. I'm seventeen by the way..What can I do then? With the economy not doing well, no offices want teenagers, when its the adults that need work. The other day we both got into the biggest arguement, because I was tired of her always yelling at me about my food or what have you. I'm starting to feel things would be better if I wasn't there. My brother hardly talks to me, if it isn't for his benefit. We used to be really close, but whenever he sees that i have somebody in my life, he gets mad, and says I shouldn't, and it makes me sad, because why would my brother want me to be alone. My mom and brother calls me a 'cold fish' because i don't like showing affection..I had a pretty tough childhood, and i always only had myself or my brother. But it seems with his two year obsession with this girl who has a boyfriend, and his friends and problems, all i'm good for is to vent when something goes wrong..I'm seriously considering running away in june. I'm not allowed, my mom forbid me to leave the house until i graduate, and there is no way i could leave in good circumstances. But I don't feel needed or i guess loved enough, by anyone by one person..Running away affects my mom and my brother..And I know that.I guess i'm just confused.
