Don’t be sorry for replying. There are a lot of people on here who are very concerned for you.
In fact reply more, make more posts. Posts about anything you like.
In the meantime please speak to somebody who can help you with your situation.

typo, i forgot the word “not”
tell us something victoria, whats going on? give us some context and then we can at least try to help x
I take it you guys didn’t watch the video a while back?
Things really haven’t changed much since then. Just the thoughts of suicide, not eating, and cutting are getting stronger…very strong.
Hi tori, I have a friend who went through some very similar things to you when she was younger, round about your age and younger. She used to self harm and is recovering from an eating disorder. I’ve asked her if she wouldn’t mind talking with you to see is she can help you out, as she’s been there and has improved her life drastically since the really bad times. I was thinking maybe by talking with each other you could get some hope and see there is a way out the other end.
She’s agreed and said she’s more then happy to chat with you and feel free to contact her when ever you need if necessary.
If this is something you’d like to do, let me know and I’ll put you two in contact. She will do anything she can to help you out.
Best Wishes

I wouldn’t mind that, thanks.
Good to hear from you! Hopefully whoever Daft puts you in contact with can help you out, and don’t hesitate to PM anybody on here if you wanna talk about stuff. Sometimes telling someone else about your problems is a good way of feeling better and coming up with a solution. When you’re in a bad situation, it can be hard to see the way out. Telling somone can be a bit like having someone in a helicopter flying over you with a map giving you directions on how to get to the next town when you’re lost.

I’ll pm you her Facebook details (assuming you use Facebook and you don’t mind contacting her through it; I can try and sort out another method of contact if you so wish, it’s not a problem at all), and just send her a quick hello explaining who you are. She’s expecting your friend request so you don’t have to go into detail straight away if you don’t want to, you can just tell her you’re the person from partyvibe that Josh mentioned and she’ll know who you are.
Feel free to talk to her as much or as little as you want about anything. Just chat to her and get to know her a bit so you feel comfortable talking with her if you wish, it doesn’t have to be about your situation, it’s totally up to you, she said she’ll do what ever she can to help.
LGBT: Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender
You should seek people within the lgbt community who struggle with abuse, that way you wont feel so alone.
also give childhelp a call and tell them your situation.
When calling 1-800-4-A-CHILD (1-800-422-4453), a qualified crisis counselor will answer and assist you, if you:
Need help and want to talk to a counselor.
Are in physical or emotional crisis and need support and encouragement
Connect you to the best possible resources in your area.
Have questions about the signs of child abuse.
Need to find out how to report known or suspected abuse.
Have questions about the reporting process and what you might expect through the process.
Want to learn about Childhelp programs that will address you or your child’s needs.
Want to learn about resources available to parents, grandparents & caregivers.
Need emotional support as survivor of abuse.
Want a referral to an agency, counseling or other services near where you live.
Want literature mailed to you.(Allow two weeks for delivery via the U.S. Postal Service.)
Want information on how to make a donation to Childhelp.
The friend who’s details I gave you is bi herself so will understand the stigma that some ignorant people attach to being gay, bi or trans.
I would strongly advise to do what becki is suggesting as well, as there’s one thing getting emotional support from people, but it’s even more important to get professional support as these are the people who will directly be the ones to help you get out of the situation.
TBH given recent events the USA I’m sure even conservative areas would rather help a young person with family and sexuality/gender identity issues at an early age before they end up joining an an organisation like the military for a surrogate “family” but can’t cope with the unpleasant things military do and end up leaking a ton of classified info..
I’d certainly try the 1-800 child help number. If you do not own a cellphone or these charge for outbound 1-800 numbers, or the house telephone is kept an an area where it may be overheard by parents, or you have other concerns over the security of the wiring in your house (if your dad is not just controlling but also has even basic electronics knowledge he might be prepared to even put a covert monitoring device across the line, this happens loads in dysfunctional families) then hopefully telephone boxes still exist in your part of the USA.
If it’s easier for you tori I can get my friend to contact you via what ever method of communication suits you best. We’ve dug out some phone numbers that are from your local area that are support groups and crises helplines that we can pass onto you if you want. Let me know and I’ll get it sorted for you and pm you the numbers for your local area.
also if the use of a standard telephone is the safer option (seems that in your case the NSA are far less of a issue than your own family!) I’ve unearthed a list of where the old style public phone may still exist in your state (it turns out you might live in what was an old skool computer hackers haunt, and keeping details of payphones was something old skool hackers did back then (as they were useful for lots of situations where you would not want to use your family phone).
Of course if you have a personal smartphone you can trust or a computer not shared with other family members, which should be safe to use provided you can avoid overhearing.
Thanks for trying to help everyone <3
