My brother accidentally saw my cuts and scars...and he just stared and said "next time, make sure to cut deeper" and walked out...
I can't breathe... I feel like he just ripped out my heart...

I know this is going to be very different from my usual style of post, but it needs to be spoken.
WHAT
AN
ASSHOLE..


I'm sorry you had to put up with that, btw. Words really can hurt more than physical infliction's...

He's been telling me stuff like that for a while now... I should be used to it...

[King_of_Hearts]

No, you shouldn't. That is horrible. I understand siblings can poke fun at each other and be mean, but that is low. There is no need for you to have to deal with that kind of pain. I am so sorry that he said something so cruel to you.

[Croconaw]

That's horrible that you have to deal with that. I don't think anyone should have to deal with that. :(

[Seemyheart]

I just didn't expect anyone to ever say that... granted, he hates me, but still...
I heard him telling my mom earlier... I'll probably get yelled at and my phone taken away... she warned me if I did this again, she'd send me to the hospital:'(

[Croconaw]

I don't think she would send you to the hospital because that seems overboard. :(

[Seemyheart]

She warned me if I did it again, she wouldn't have a choice. I really don't want to go there.
My brother told us stories about it when he went in, and if they were true, I don't want to go...

[Luminous]

No, you shouldn't be used to that! That is horrible. I can't believe it would even cross his mind to say something like that to you. Some people are just plain out terrible. Ignore him. This is your life, and he has no say in it. Recently in school I studied a poem called "Invictus". I want to share it with you. It goes like this:
Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

I'm not going to leave you to puzzle that out yourself. In a nutshell, what it means is that nothing can take control of you. This is your life, and you can choose how to live it; even when something happens to try to steer you off course. "My head is bloody, but unbowed." Troubles and problems have come at you put you keep your head up and work through them. I'm not a huge fan of classical poetry but this one really spoke to me, and I think it could mean something to you too.

[Seemyheart]

I don't read poetry, but that speaks volumes... I like it, thank you for sharing that with me

brothers can be cruel sometime.... i've been with my sis, but in the deep.. i guess i love her, i mean... she's part of my family.... it's really hard to have a serious talk with a brother/sister.. ive never done it, but well... can't give u a better advice than just hang on till ur able to leave home and start a new life... things will get better, ull see :)

[killerrockyroad]

What a butthead

[thatgothgirluknow]

im srry he said that to u i now how it can hurt when a family member says something but dont let it get to u hes being a jack ass and no one should have that said to them

[Katiya]

OK you need to talk to someone about your family and their reaction. Someone can teach them how to make it better rather than make it worse.

Can you talk to your mom and say what your brother said? If not get a specialist involved.

Hospitals are NOT punishment! That's a very serious and bad thing to do to a person who does not need the unit. Exreamly traumatizing! And cutting is no reason to send someone there.

If she does take you there you have to be evaluated first. Be cool collected, funny, laugh and act totally peppy and normal. ACT! And do it well! And you will pass inspection. I've done it many times.


If it were me id well... I better not say it.

[kylem]

Ummm wow, nice brother, NOT! What kind of a brother would actually say that to his sis. If I was there I seriously kick his ass! Don't even accept comments like that, you're way better than that and him! Still can't believe he would say something like that what a douche!!!!

My mom is well aware of what my brother says to me. And he just gets a "leave her alone" and that's all.

I can act... I've become amazingly well at faking it...

She involved my dad. He told me they think it's the best thing for me if I go there
