my friend is struggling
so for the past 6 months to a year my friend has gone through so much. her parents are LITERAL SHIT. i’ve known them my entire life. her dad is emotionally abusive. when we were little he would literally punch us. he’s very angry and has super bad outbursts and says the most hurtful things. her mom is quiet and does not stick up to her husband. my friend got diagnosed with EDS and is always in a lot of pain. she struggles so much and her parents do close to nothing.y friend likes to express herself with clothes and piercings and her dad always calls her a whore and a slut. he says stuff like that she’s a terrible person and is a disappointment. i feel so bad for her. she recently started cutting(i’ve been here before so i’m trying my best to make everything better for her, but i know that’s not so simple.) tonight she got in a fight with her mom (she wanted to get stronger pain meds) and her mom accused her of being a substance abuser when the pain meds she has now is basically advil. anyways they got in the fight and my friend lighted her sleeve and showed her mother the cuts while saying “don’t you see that i’m struggling? this is why i want to die and no one cares!” her mother called her dramatic. i will not have it anymore. watching her go through this is like getting stabbed every time she talks about it. idk what to do because we’re both young teens. i was hoping to turn to some adults for actual help and advice on what to do. please.
