Description
This can be my own, a friend's, or a fellow deviant's.
The person would like to add: It's been 4 months. I'm still not completely over him, or what we had, more like. He's already in love again. The fact that he forgot me so quickly hurts. But it's okay. It has to be okay. My sister is anorexic. My parents refuse to see she has a problem. Next to her, I feel fat and ugly. I still cut myself. So many things people just don't know...Please take into consideration, that some of these secrets contain sensitive issues, so please choose your words carefully. I will not disable the comments, because what someone has to say, may help another.
Additionally, take the time to really understand the piece. See it. Feel it. Live it.
Thank you for viewing.

your family is hurting you more than you're hurting yourself. make them understand you (and your sister) need help.

I think parents do that because they don't want to admit that they did something wrong.

the families that seem so happy and perfect on the outside are the ones with some of the biggest problems..they just choose to ignore them and pretend everything is ok...my parents were a bit like that....i still feel sometimes that they don't accept me fully for who i am..... but then, it's their lose, not mine, because I am happier now than they have ever been....i swore to myself going up that I would NEVER become my parents and that my daughter would always have a friend and mother in me. And though she is only four and a half, I like to think that so far, I'm doing far better than they did...

I'm bi as well and all I can think now is if people choose to not accept that than they are too close minded and I don't need them in my life.
With your family though - I'm sorry to hear about that. You're still young (so I'm assuming) so maybe they believe it's a '
The whole suicidal/cutting/it being in your mind - welcome to my life! At least, my old life. I've changed my ways and it's taken a bit of time, but yes, I'm much happier now. The only thing that fixes it all is time. Everyone says that, but it's not until you have all of this thinking and healing time that you actually believe it. I promise you.

don't let your family tell you how to live your life. even so, like you said, knowing they will never accept you for who you are has to be the hardest thing ever. But don't give up, your life is something that you will never get back if it's lost.

Its your life, its your existence that will span however many years. You arent living for your parents, you should only live for yourself. If you come out as bisexual and they cant accept it then YOU need to accept that about them and move on.
Maybe you are hoping to always have your family there, it doesnt always happen and sometimes you need to lose people. You cant live a lie or a secret that will eat and destroy you for fear that someone in your life might not approve.
In this world, you can be picked on, bullied, alienated etc for ANYTHING, as long as you accept SOME people may treat you like that but is their opinion worth making your life miserable? Dont live for other people, live for yourself.
People will always be intolerant, but at least the world has come a long way. A few years ago the intolerance was terrifying, with more and more people coming out about who they are and their choices, the more the world changes.
Be strong

I know how this feels.
My family has refused to acknowledge my existance since I told them I was bisexual.
I think that, you can't help how you feel, and if they're going to be like that, you can't do anything about it.
There's no other advice I can give than to try to make yourself immune to them. Don't hear what they say, and don't see what they don't.
As for the best friend thing, I think that if you really actually like this girl [girl, right?] then you should opt for spending time with her. I mean, it's better than nothing right?
I wish I could solve your problems for you, but there's not much you can do here.
I hope things work out. :]

The only way I deal with it is finding someone I can talk to. I have so many problems to but none like yours but it always helps to have someone you can trust and someone who you can really rely on even if they can never totally understand what you're going through.

People seem to need to see someone as having the perfect life. It's ironic that they usuallt pick the people who, in fact, have a million problems to think have perfect lives
