Dad is abusive

[Aweshum]

My dad physically and emotionally abuses me all the time.
He calls me names which make me angry and I can't talk back or he'll hit me, and it usually turns out that way. He says I act like a girl and says I'm a gay b******d. I can't fight back or do anything so I just have to take whatever happens. He is even worse when he's drunk, and has properly beat me when he does. I actually live in fear of some day he actually kills me. I hate living like this. Can anybody help me? :(

i'm from the USA, but here, we have child services that help to protect children from abuse. i'd suggest looking into something like that. or, go to your school and seek help and advice from them. like i mentioned, i don't know about where you're from, but here, it'd be confidential.

My dad was abusive when I was little, he's better now, but I lived in fear as well. Even now he's almost unbearable emotionally, but at least he doesn't beat me anymore. Do the most you can to avoid him. Make your room your sanctuary. Do something to occupy yourself in there: music, art, reading, internet. Try to seek some outside help. Idk what the deal is in Ireland, but maybe consult someone at your school or if it gets to be too much, the police. My sister called the police on my dad when he went too far. For two years my parents were separated and my dad went to daily therapy. He still goes to therapy once or twice a week and though he doesn't hit me anymore, he frustrates everyone around him. It can always get a little better. :)

Yeah that's not good. You should talk to someone about that and ultimately get some help.

I know from experience how hard it is to get help. Most people just tell you to go to the police but it's hard. What will people think of you? He's your dad. What will your family do? What will your father do? But babe, you really should. What if he does kill you one day? Unintentionally or not. You need to tell someone.

You are protected by the law. If you fear for your life, you are -entitled- to protection. Everyone has a right to feel safe and to be treated adequately. That includes you.

Don't wait for it to get worse. Get help.

Love,
Faith and Trust

People are right. Either avoid him, or tell someone you trust.

Talk to someone...someone who you can trust i.e. Your Doctor,a school teacher, a friend ect ect...If you believe in a religion eg. Christianity Pray to God , Read from the Bible and ask for help...It all starts with FAITH( belvng in sumthn uv nva seen b4 )...
GOOD LUCK BUD

my dad was like that 2 years ago but he was killed in a car accident call child services

I agree with everyone else in here... You should definitely tell it to someone you really trust. How about telling your mom or any of your close relatives. Telling them will definitely relieve some of the stress caused by your dad.

well my dad beat me when i was younger, the first thing i did to make it better was run away... didnt work out all that well so dont do that ok... talk to people to help you through it, or talk to your mum tell her to talk to him. or try to avoid him as much as you can when he is angry but if youconfront him just let him talk ok... my dad will yell at me if i talk back and threaten me still but i just look at him and hold back what i want to say and the next day is good...
sorrry if that post was all over the place :-\
hope everything works out
