Would going to therapy be a good choice?(Warning its Extremly long)?
Question by : Would going to therapy be a good choice?(Warning its Extremly long)?
So, I’m 13 and i’ve been through alot and my mom thinks I should go to therapy but to me therapy sounds like a place to help crazy people /: i dont want to feel like im crazy. Anyways, I wanna see if it’s really a need for me to go. and im really sorry its gonna be long. and by the way its my first time letting it all out so yeah.
So Before i was even born my parents had arguements.i remember hearing them fight and yell when i was 4 or 5.i also remember at age 5 or 6 i got really sick.i couldnt even stand up to go to the restroom.My dad stayed with me in the livingroom and at the middle of the night i woke up and saw my mom and dad trying to chock eachother.i was scared i didnt know what to do so i just didnt let them know i was awake. and my dad passed away for a while cause of a heart attack but they revived him back.i dont remember when that was i was really little.he was always having promblems with him heart.now he has something in his artery that keeps it open.well cause of all the stuff going on my dad decided to throw my mom out of the house when i was 6.he picked me and my brother up from church and didnt tell my mom. two days my mom was home alone with my older sis.cops arrived and told my mom she had 15 minutes to pack her things and leave.my sister helped her pack and my mom when to stay with family.she told my sister to stay strong and to take care of the family.for years i would miss alot of school to go to court.i remember waking up at 530 to be downtown at 6.at fisrt my dad had custidy of all of us.my sis was the mom till she left and lived with my mom and my aunts.my dad worked all the time so me and my brother had to keep the house in order.iremember ironing and by acident burned my dads shirt and he yelled at me.also we never had food ther.and this one time has scared me ever since it happened.my dad bought only me fries.my bro came downstair to look for food but like always there wasnt any so he went upstairs.idk if he cryed.i wanted to share my fries with him but before i yelled for him my dad hide the fries and shut my mouth.now its hard for me to go out and eat somewere fancy cuz i want my bro there to see him eat.so after that my dad and grandma sold most of my toys and my bed set so i had nothin just clothes. i had a babysitter who helped us out with the chores and i remember her taking me to the store and bought me a coloring book of cats.i loved her like she was my mom since my dad didnt let me see my mom for months.finaly i visted my mom at my aunts.that was the only time when my hair was brushed.since my dad didnt know how.we slept on the floor of my lil cuzins room.she made fun of me wen i cryed wen it was time to go back with my dad.everytime me and my brother would get extremly sick and would throw up when we went to vist my mom.we wouldnt stop throwing up.we gasped for air.after a while we new my dad was making us sick to tell the courts that my mom didnt take care of us cause we were always sick.it was him cause he would allways make us eat something before we left and it always tasted funny.i wouldnt be suprised he foodpoised my sis.finaly my mom got an apartment and i moved to live with her.my dad payed people to record us and follow us.we were scared.we couldnt report it.wat proof did we have?later we moved with another aunt and all3of us shared 1 room.we got our own house and things seemed to calm down.i did things i regret.only my mom knows and close friends.i got really depressed in 5&6 grade i berly talked.i had to push myself to talk.
At times we had courts.My dad had done so much to us.he always tried to seem like the good guy though.i entered to middle school and there was still court going on.i remeber i couldnt go on my first day cause of it.i cryed.so there was still promblems.now this school year came and i knew my mom was talking about moving to arizona.now shes serious about it.i have drama at school like every teenager.but to move to arizona we need more money so we moved to my sis house.imma go on homestudies cause its hard for me to go to school now.and on Nov. 15 2k11(my dads b-day)my bestfriend passed away.im still hurting from that.knew her for years.couldnt go to school for days.now to move to arizona i have to leave everything.family,friends,memories…and i always have to be careful on what to say around my dad. we planning to tell my dad in a month.we dont want to tell him to early so he wont try to stop us.so theres gonna be alot of drama…soo yeah and drama at school to top it off.having to breaking up with my bf too. idk and for 3 years know im emotionless. i cant feel emotions anymore. one of my deepest secrets…
what you guys think? Should i go? And feel like im crazy… /: i wanna hear from real people what you guys have to say.
