I live in a trailor with my brothers, mother, and grandma. Everyday is a struggle to not cry. Its not like my mom doesn't know that my grandma screams at us and call us names, she's just always at work. I hate it here, I truly do, I'm in the middle of my freshman year and I want help. I've been cutting since seventh grade. I'm just afraid of her getting mad if I spoke my mind(cause she has before).

Personally I'd go seek help from a professional and let them deal with your mum and pus find it a lot easier to talk about you're issues with them too :)

Speak to your school counselor. If you feel that you are being abused in any way at home, you need to reach out for help. Abuse comes in many forms, and verbal abuse can be very brutal. If no one else knows, then nobody can help you. Be strong and don't be afraid. You are doing the right thing for the safety and well being of yourself and your siblings. I hope this helps :)

I agree with Jojo1290... you should definitely go talk to your school counselor. If there is abuse going on in your house, they are obligated by law to report it.

First no you can talk to her, but not "speak your mind" to argue back. Often older people yell to get kids to do things, esp in some ethnic groups. Are you going hungry ? Are you being beaten? Just talk to mom

Well I don't really feel that I'm being abused. I just hate her for yelling at me and my brothers for the most stupidest things. Im not going hungry and I'm not being beaten. I don't know... I guess I'm just some dumb teenager huh.
