    Should I tell an adult that my dad emotionally abuses my mom and I?
    I don't want my parents to find out if I do tell someone. My mom won't tell anyone because she needs to be loved and she has depression and she doesn't have the courage to stand up to him. I know that I can't take it anymore and I always cry myself to sleep. I don't see what the point is to live anymore. Who should I tell though? There is no relative that I am very close to. Also, what should I say to them and how do I start the conversation?

    You need to keep your post on one thread

    Yes you need to tell somebody that you feel you need a therapist. Start by telling a school nurse and tell her all your problems with how you can't cope.

    I believe that those answers basically answer this question.

    Do you have a girlfriends Mom that you can talk to?

    If so I would say.I'm having some family problems and I need to talk to someone about it.

    That's all I would say.

    My friends kids always talked to me, they still do.

    If not ,anyone who you trust sweetheart is a good person to talk to.

    I think if you involve others your mother will have no choice but to stand up for you and you would be helping her as well.

    It's a very hard burden you are carrying.
    Talk to someone you trust.

    You deserve to have a beautiful life :)
