Unhappy

my dad is very extremely abusive, who do i tell?


What is the name of your state?illinois. my name is michelle, i'm 15, and my dad has been verbially and a bit physically abusive for as long as i can remember. he makes me feel like **** and cry all or the time, i can't even think about him without wanting him to feel as much pain as he has made me feel over the years. it's so bad that a bunch of my friends want to just kill him, and all of the rest just want to beat him till he can't breathe. i told my therapist about how he calls everyone names and hurts me internially more than the time i jumped and beatten ****tless by my beloved old boyfriend. she said dcfs couldn't do nething about it because there weren't any bruises. please tell me then, who do i tell and what do i say? i'm dying on the inside, so i need help**************.

what my dad does


he shakes me to the point where i feel like my neck is about to snap. he shoves us (my sisters and i) to the ground, trips us on pourpose. he has made me fall down the stairs, he pushes us. he breaks our things(not his), like he broke some of alison's perfumes on pourpose and he knew they where very special to her. he calls me bad names, his faveorite is calling me a "little ****". he hids our stuff, and he takes whatever he wants. he goes through all of my stuff so much/often and takes anything and everything he "feels" like taking so if i don't want something disturbed, i have to bring it with me wherever i go. he is always threatening me about really stupid and pointless things like "if you don't go get your winter jacket right now i'm going to send you to the hospitol." when he knew damn well that it was at my friends house and no one was home, he'll even threaten to call the cops or send me to residential if i don't clean my room. he provokes us on pourpose and continues to until we react, then when we do he threatens us. he basically black mails me, ex. he is always threatening to call the cops on my boyfriend(just cuz he doesn't like him) if i don't do **************...whatever he says. he has a way of making me feel completely wothless whenever i'm within yelling range of him. he has yelled at me that "i'm ruining HIS family" and "i'm stupid" and "i'm always wrong" or "you're a slut" and many much more scaring things that have perminately partially distroyed mycommunicating skills, lowered my self esteem, and has made me become a person who emmeditly becomes defencive over anything.

-if your being physically abused at home, contact your school counselor and tell them what is going on and request that they call the police for you. you can also call the police yourself.

you stated... "i told my therapist about how he calls everyone names and hurts me internially more than the time i jumped and beatten ****tless by my beloved old boyfriend. she said dcfs couldn't do nething about it because there weren't any bruises."

by law, the therapist should have notified the police. also, if your being "beatten ****tless by my beloved old boyfriend" then you need to get out of the relationship, the guy is a pr*ck. as to dcfs, talk to the police and they will contact dcfs if they determine it is necessary.

You could also talk to your regular doctor, if you have one. And if there is a next time when he lays his hands on you or your sister - pick up the phone and call the police. There is likely little they can do about the verbal abuse, but they can do something about the physical.

Where is your Mom in the picture?

And PLEASE don't listen to your friends who want to hurt him in any way - that's only going to bring you much more trouble.
