I just finally got to live with my biological father. After going to court and begging to live with him because my stepdad mentally and physically abused me and my mom. He was very controlling and my mom was very fragile so i don’t want to blame it on my her for not getting us out of there. It all started when i noticed lots of my underwear going missing and at the time i never did my own laundry, come to find out he’d been taking them. My mom tried to confront him about it but he only belittle her to the point where i had to step in and apologize and say i was jumping to conclusions. He’s finally going to jail (i think) i have a lawyer that my dad paid for yet he’s still not behind bars, he won’t let me have any of my stuff including my ssn which i need to enroll in school. This all really sucks and i keep having nightmares of him, i don’t ever want to go back to that apartment and even thinking about it makes me cry, i’ve gained so many insecurities from him and even took up coping counseling because of it. It wouldn’t be so bad if he just left my dreams and thoughts maybe then i could be a little bit more happy again. Sorry if this seems like depressing teenage girl story. Not trying to be dramatic. Any suggestions maybe some tea i can drink that can help me fall asleep or something idk if those work but they taste good.. :(

Light candles or do something that would smell nice, when you go to sleep think about...... reply
Please don't apologize for sharing this, you're not being dramatic. You deserve better than you've been treated and it's amazing that you're willing to share this with others, even if its online and anonymous. You are already taking steps to take care of yourself, rather than bury the feelings, and that's very admirable.

My Suggestion Are :
1. I Think It Would Be Better To Go To Therapy To Recover From Your Abuse.
2. Talk To Some One You Trust (Sibling, Friend, Or A Adult).
3. Take Care Of Your Mental Health, Emotional Health, And Physical Health.
4. Finding A Hobby Or Passion You Can Enjoy.
5. Get Enough Sleep, Eat Well Balanced Meals, And Exercise Daily.

second of all, if you wanna get distracted from things that happend or something, you can easily try to get distracted with other things or even so discover more about yourself!
There was a time when my family and i didn't have a good economical moment, so i decided to distract myself from all...... reply
You don't have to apologize. I've never exactly had nightmares before, but what I do before I go to bed is to play relaxing classical music. It helps me sleep better and not think so much, if you feel like crying at times just let it out and talk to someone about them, it's not okay to bottle your feelings up.
I hope you'll start to feel better s...... reply
