Hey I guess its bin a while since I had a big problem. I just moved to uni a month ago, basically after a week my mum decided to have a fling and bragged to everyone about and had told my step dad he wasn't satisfying her. Nice to know basically people seem to think they can talk to me and tell me everything even if I don't eant to hear it. She also felt trapped in the marriage she has been in for 10 years. They run my stepdad's business together but since this she and my stepdad have been told they are suffering from clinical depression. My mum and dad decided to make another go of things, it lasted a week, she is an alcoholic and mixed her medication.

What I should also mention are my two sisters, one is at college and moved in with her boyfriend, for a week but she cannot live with him it is not an option, the other is just starting her last year at school she is living with her godmother, I'm 130 miles from home, but I can't leave uni for them I just can't and they won't let me although I think my stepdad would have me do it so he is no longer alone as everyone has left and he is quite a hermit yet hates to be on his own. A self destructive cause from the start perhaps. I grew up with my mum leaning on me for support and now I have my stepdad, who I will state I never really got on with before this, leaning on me for support. He is threatening suicide great! My sisters cannot deal with him, he is a very negative personality on people. ANd I am consistently on the phone feeling like a run around. My mum upped and moved away further than me to the holiday house they have leaving the girls and step dad behind 4 days ago she now has a job and isn't coming back. I don't care about how it affects me emotionally, I'm away from the reality of home at university, but being the oldest I am worried for the girls and my stepdad. My mum said to turn my phone off to him, well I can't do it, I feel like she has run away from her problems and left me, my step dad and my sister's gomother to clear up the mess behind her. My dad is not an option either I don't know where he is. Parent's are ed up is all I can say. And although my friends are at home it's a long way away but too much of a big deal to share with anyone here I have known for under a month. I just say my parents have broken up they don't know any details.

I'm about to break.

Wow! That is a lot to absorb. It is not all up to you, actually it is all up to them.
You can't fix everything. Stepdad must have family somewhere, friends somewhere.
If not he still has to work on getting help for himself. You can make some calls ,maybe? Get him some referrals to places that can help. It is up to him to go there.
Your Mom is a piece of work, alcoholic and mixing medications. She may crash and burn too.
Your younger sis seems to be in a good place. Your other sis is old enough to make her own decisions if in college.
In any case, sad as it is, leaving and ruining your schooling won't make things better in the long run, and for you, certainly a lot worse. Take care, and good luck.
