Need help...

[TAKING_BACK_MONDAY]

maybe i'm crazy, but shouldn't something like your parents getting divorced cause some emotional damage?Shouldn't having your father cheating on your mother with another woman ande getting her pregnant effect you?
Shouldn't having an alcholic dad since before i was born faze me in any way?
for some reason it hasn't yet, i mean all the years have taken their toll....
But i don't....i don't know.Maybe it's my way of dealing with things
blocking them out cmpletely, but it scares me to have all of this bottled up inside because i'm afraid that one day i'll just blow up and let it all out....and do something that i'll deeply regret.
Is it right to keep all of my emotion bottled inside?or should i tell someone?

Re: Need help...

You should definitely talk to a guidance counselor or something. Maybe a friend also, but I don't know your friends, so I don't know if they will care or not.

Edit- So, yeah. I just read your poems in Literature.

Definitely tell somebody. If there's one thing you can take from this, it's to not follow your dad's path. Don't do anything stupid.

Re: Need help...

It obviously has affected you more than you think if your asking for help. Go to a counselor.

Well, those certainly aren't things that are easy to accept, but you have to.

You're afraid something will happen if you don't tell someone, so go get help. There are plenty of people to talk to and, since you're in a not-so-uncommon situation, get help from.

Re: Need help

Also, you've made like a lot of threads for the same thing. Why not keep it all in one topic?

Also, when people are trying to help answer your question, don't blow off their suggestions (the CT thread). We're trying to help, so listen.

PS - Moved this into the CT discussion as that's where it belongs even though it's really CC-material.

You asked us if you should bottle this up, and we told you no. You should really listen. If you're going to stick to yourself, though, go online and find some info about what you should do to get out of a funk.

I don't want you saying you'll just "get through for now".

Re: Need help...

Yeah parents getting divorced does mess you up a little. It all depends on the situation afterward and how young you were when all this happened. Like me, I was seven and really didn't know what the hell was going, luckily iwas so damn spacy i got away without lasting effects, or so I thought. It turns out the effects I got were from the aftermath, having to live at two different houses with two different sets of rules really gets confusing. But, the longer it went on the better and more stable it got. So pretty much give it time and DON'T bottle up. Bottling up is the reason I wasn't able to keep myself in check. I would get pissed at anything intolerable. Hell, i didn't know, I thought I was fine. So either write about it in a journal or talk to a counseler.
That's the best thing to do.

Also, sometimes the effects go deeper than you can see at the moment. The older you ge, the more drastically they will affect you if you keep them inside.

You should definintly tell someone. Anyone you think cares about you. Don't keep your feelings bottled up inside. That will give you severe mental stress and cause an ulcer which is a nasty thing involving tons of pain. Ulcer's come from stress which will build up inside of you if you don't express yourself. Try writing a story of your life. That may help. It has helped me, though I have different passions than you so I don't know how well it will help you.
You probably don't want to get help because you don't want to think of yourself as someone who isn't sane or someone who isn't normal. Don't think that because your definintly not abnormal or insane. Your perfectly normal and your situation isn't uncommon. So there's probably a lot of people who can relate to you. The stress will get more dramatic as you get older. Trust me it does. You don't want that because the tiniest change can bring your whole world down and you could become mentally depressed. That's a dark path to take. So get help and find a light path that will make you rise up from what could become an emotional mess. Good luck!

I agree. i don't think i can actually take anything you say seriously after all those other stupid threads you posted. you proberly just went into another forum and plagerized some one elses problems. Also i dont really think this has much to do with Critical Thinking.

Re: Need help...

Its the same thought ive been having. Like i havnt cried in who knows how long. Ive never really cared about things for along time. Cant be good for me.
Also like when your grandparents die, am i supose to cry? cause it really doesnt sadden me all to much. Im not sure if i would cry over one of my parents death. Although i think that might hit the right button to trigger that.

Re: Need help...

My grandma died not that long ago. i didn't really cry untill some one else did or i saw a picture of her. Im fine now though you move on after a while
