    My parents tell me things like Im stupid and worthless and cant do anything. Everything I do for them is never enough. They think somethings wrong with me, they wanna send me to a counselor. But Im scared of them, I shake when theyre around me cuz when they get mad they hit me or push me so becuz Im so scared I screw up things. Sometimes I think it mite jus be all in my head. Other times they make me so depressed i cut myself. They call me a baby for crying. i told them nothings wrong with me, but they are doing this to me. They said theyre gonna take me to a counselor anyway, but I said I wont go. My dad was mad at me last night jus cuz I went on the computer after 7 pm even though I hadnt been on all day. I tried talking about it nicely with him but he wouldnt listen to me. He got mad and started slamming things again and my mom was silent. The she started screaming and slamming things too becuz she does anything to keep her marriage together. Now they arent talking and my mom threatened me tht if I break up this family shes gonna hurt me. My mom was crying so I gave her a hug but when I was crying she called me a baby. Stuff like this always happens. Should I see a counselor? my friends said i should but im bad at opening up to people. but if i keep living like this im gonna be nothing but scars.

    ^ i like that word...procrastinate...its my new word of the day...

    Look, it seems that your parents are sorta split. i.e. they hurt you, but they still want you to see a councillor. If i were you, i would see a councillor. Your parents don't seem all that responsible if they hurt you. You need to do something.

    I think jarreds put it perfectly... i think you really should speak to a cancellor, they may beable to assist you and help change what's happening i think you really need to speak to someone. Don't dely it id try to do it asap it may be hard at first but they are here to help.

    What is happening to you is not "normal", I would see the counselor and tell them everything about what your parents DO to you.
    you haven't done anything wrong, it seems like needless bullying to me, and from the people you rely on at the end of the day, that's atrocious behaviour. You expect your home to be a safe place more than anywhere else and they are sabotaging your outtake on things.
    You aren't in a normal environment, and you should definitely try and get out of there, if it means telling your counselor about this, then i would do it.
    all the best.
