I am 18 years old and I have been so stressed. I am feeling so unnaprecited and unloved in my own house. I am the youngest and the only girl. All my life I've had to put up with so many emotional stress that I've come up to the point where I can't take it anymore. My parents have never said they were proud of me or that they loved me. I have always been the good student even though my brother has messed up in so mnay big ways. I do come from an abusive family all my life and I don't know what to do. My brother is always hitting me and one time he actually slapped me. No matter how many times I tell him to stop and tell him its not right to hit a girl he doesn't care. He calls me worthless and he says that I'm not going to do nothing with my life. Ive come close to committing suicide so mnay times but 2 years ago I met my now boyfriend and he has changed my life evr since. The only problems is that we don't get to see each other that often because my parents are very strict and they don't let me have any freedom and go out. No matter how many times I tell them I'm old enough and they can't tell me what to do, they don't care at all and they just end up yelling at me and I'm stuck at home. Im tired of it all and me and my boyfriend think that its best if I just run away with him for good. Hes the only person that makes me happy and loved he's the only reason why I'm still living and if I continue to stay here ill become even more stressed. Im so confused and sick of it all and so stressed, I need someone to hear and give some good advice. Please

Princess, hi, I am sorry to hear that you are in such a bind and having trouble with your family. Please don't be offended if I ask what nationality you are; it will make a difference how I answer. I get the impression from your post that women may not be regarded highly in your family. That is the reason I am asking.

It all makes a difference.

No not really I'm still looking for some good advice and I have no one that understands me and I just need someone to talk to me and give some good advice

Okay, I don't think you should take much stock in what your b/f says, Princess. If he can't make up his mind, he really isn't into doing any travelling with you to get your settled away from your parents. As for your brother, well, he needs a good slap upside the head if he can't keep his hands off you. Your parents don't seem to be too involved in what you two do within the family circle. If there is even a family circle. Do both your parents work ? Have you spoken to a counsellor about the abuse at home so something can be done.

So you see I have a lot of questions too.

Well he tells me that we are going to leave but I have to give it some time, and I'm frustrated, and I can't talk to my parents because takto them beacause talking to them is like talking to a wall, no matter what I say they never seem to care and they don't want me to be happy. And I haven't talked to a consellor because I am very scared as to what might happen
