I don't want to go into too much detail but I am the stage where I just want to commit suiside, I am getting threatened to get lethered, kicked out and I have had enough ihave got into drugs for trying to get over it, self harming it doesn't work and well I just want to go into care with kind carers who are there for you but not to get adopted or fostered I just want to get away from home I have ran away from home before and returned drunk and well I got people looking for me and I got in trouble again so I ran out the house and stayed at my mates for 4 week.

If you are under 18 (since you mention runaway) nobody can legally take you as a runaway. Your family is responsible for you until then.

You should be in a lot more trouble than being threatened to be "leathered" for the way you are acting.

Getting into drugs, self harming, drinking and running away. You are lucky you still have internet access.

Going into care isn't going to solve your problems. Those people aren't going to be nice to you the way you expect them to be. Your life would be so much harder than it is now.

You have some serious problems that you need to address. This is all on you, not your parents.

You need to ( if you are still in school) see the school counselor and start talking about your problems. There is no way to get into care without the state or government taking you and putting you into some foster care system.

These will not be nice often and the rules will be very strict.
