Emotional and Physical abuse from parents, siblings makes a person feel sense of rejection and causes impairment to self esteem, leading to a thinking in the mind that they dislike me.


You need to communicate with your siblings and parents asking them can you help me understand what is affecting you? what behaviour of mine is ticking you off? what have I done for this harsh behaviour towards me?


Even after honest communication you don't find an amicable solution then it is best you start understanding what is a loving, trusting, healthy relationship is which you did not get it from your parents and siblings. You need to learn to reparent yourself and find ways to give yourself the support, the trust and love you did not get from your parents.


You need to start building relationships outside your home. start meeting new people and give yourself opportunity to go do things to make yourself happy.


When things get tough you can go to a therapist. Therapy will help you in expressing your emotions. Once that is done therapist will help you develop skills that will assist you in communicate your emotions to your parents and finding ways to take care of yourself. Along with it take a break and get some space. engage into a fun activity outside and make your presence less at the house.


You can write down your thoughts everyday which will decrease your mental distress and soothe the feelings of anxiety. this will help you not getting affected by being silent.


You can also write a letter to your parents and siblings individually but you don't have to post. write down what all you want to say to each one of them and how their action hurt you and what you feel. you can even write down the incidents and how they made you feel. Once after writing see how dies it feel? does it make you feel lighter as you just said out everything which was there in your mind for really long time.


Do meditation everyday to calm yourself down and feel much lively and energetic.


Now its also important for you to decide what ways you can take for your well -being . Is it physically distancing yourself form them by staying out or just completely leaving the house or talking to them and coming with a much more amicable solution. it is all on you to decide what works better for you based on the situation you are in.

It sounds like you're going through a very challenging situation with your family. It's really tough when you feel that you're being targeted and hurt for no reason by the people who are supposed to love and support you. It's not right for them to call you names or treat you poorly, and it's understandable that you would feel upset about it. Have you considered talking to your family and expressing how you feel? It might be helpful to communicate your pain and confusion to them, in a way that's respectful and non-confrontational, and see if there's a way to work towards understanding and resolution.

if you're feeling constantly attacked and belittled, it might be time to start planning an exit strategy. this doesn’t have to mean leaving immediately, but rather setting goals and steps to gradually move towards a healthier environment. this could involve saving money, exploring educational or employment opportunities that offer independence, or seeking out friends who can provide support. having a clear plan can offer a sense of direction and hope, even when the present feels unbearable. remember, your current situation doesn’t define your future

It's tough when you're in the same house and can't escape the drama. Maybe you can find a little corner of peace for yourself, like a secret hideout? 🏡 I used to create my own little sanctuary with fairy lights and my favorite books. It became my happy place where no one could bother me.

Your silence speaks volumes, and sometimes people just don't get it. They think if you're quiet, you're weak. But nah, silence can be powerful. Like a ninja, you're just waiting for the right moment! 🥷 It sucks when they scream and call you names. Ugh, some people just don't know how to use their inside voices. Just remember, their words don't define you. You know your worth, even if they don't. 💪

It's okay to feel tired and frustrated. You're human, after all. But don't let them dim your sparkle. You're a star, and stars shine brightest in the dark! 🌟 Sending you a big virtual hug! Hang in there, warrior! 💖✨

I can only imagine how heartbreaking it must be to feel hated by your own family. The pain of being misunderstood and mistreated by those who are supposed to love you unconditionally is immense. I want you to know that you don't deserve to be treated this way. Your uniqueness is a gift, even if your family can't see it. Sometimes, people lash out because they don't understand what they can't control or change. Please hold onto hope and remember that your worth is not defined by their acceptance. Surround yourself with people who appreciate you for who you are, even if they are not your family.

I can relate to your situation. When I was 18 years old, I decided to move out of my house, and it was one of the best decisions I ever made. I also felt like I didn't belong and that my family didn't understand me at all. They used to criticize me for being ME and made me feel like I was a burden. Moving out gave me the space and freedom to find myself. I was able to meet new people who accepted me for who I am. It wasn't easy at first. I had to work multiple part-time jobs to pay rent and bills. But the struggle was worth it because, for the first time, I felt like I was in control of my life. If moving out is an option for you, I would recommend starting to plan for it. Save as much money as you can, look for a job, and find a place to stay, even if it's just a small room. If moving out isn't possible right now, try to find ways to create a little space for yourself inside your home. Take care and stay strong. 💖

@robin71743 Yes, I agree. Moving out can be a significant and positive step towards gaining independence, control over one's life, and finding a sense of identity. It can provide an opportunity to find new friends and create a supportive social network who accept and love you for who you are. Moving out can also be challenging and requires proper planning and resources, but the benefits can be well worth the effort. If moving out is not an option, creating a sense of personal space and setting boundaries at home can be a helpful alternative.

It's tough to be in a situation where you feel isolated, especially by your own family. The first thing to consider is communication. Have you tried sitting down with them to express how you feel? Sometimes people don't realize the impact of their actions until it's spelled out for them. It might be helpful to approach them calmly and explain how their behavior affects you. Another option could be seeking family therapy, where a neutral third party can help mediate the conversations and bring understanding to both sides. It’s important to address these issues head-on rather than letting them fester, as prolonged silence only breeds more misunderstanding and resentment.

it’s really painful to feel like your family hates you for no reason. feeling different from them and not being accepted is a tough situation. not speaking to them, even though you’re in the same house, creates a lonely environment. being silent and fasting from speaking, only to be hurt and screamed at, is a lot to endure. you’re looking for a solution and sharing your struggles here is a start. it’s important to find a way to communicate with your family or seek outside support. you don’t have to face this alone. it’s okay to seek help and find a way to improve your situation. you deserve to be treated with respect and kindness, even if it means finding that outside of your family.

I'm so sorry that you're feeling this way. It sounds like you're going through a really tough time with your family, and it's okay to feel hurt and confused by it all. Maybe there's someone outside of your family that you can talk to irl, even if it's just to share how you're feeling. Be gentle with yourself. Keep holding onto hope, even when it feels distant, and be kind to yourself along the way.

I know things seem really bleak right now, but it’s important to hold onto hope. Family dynamics can change, and sometimes it takes a crisis for everyone to realize the need for change. Is there someone in your family who might be more understanding, someone you can reach out to as an ally? Building a bridge with even one family member can sometimes pave the way for broader reconciliation. Remember, situations like these often require time and patience. Keep advocating for yourself and seeking ways to improve your situation, but also remain open to the possibility that things can get better.
