Hi, I go by the name N.
I am trans he/him or they/them
So my dad got really mad at me this morning because I had a sock outside my door and like 2 small pieces of paper on the floor. he yelled at me and took my phone away. I just cried. I put my laundry away.
Then about 10-20 minutes later my parents were less angry and I went to the school behind my house to use the swing, I felt so free.
went home ate some lunch
and went to the anticek store

had some chill time and then Mom got mad at me because I cleaned my bathroom but here was a bottle of nail polish on the floor and 2 qtips. also a towel blanket thingy that mom has in her car was in my bathroom she was super mad because she wanted it back like 3 days ago.
thankyou for reading this,
N
I'm really sorry to hear that you're feeling this way. It sounds like you're going through a tough time with your parents. Please consider talking to your parents when things are calmer and let them know how you felt about their behavior towards you. It sounds like there are some expectations your parents have regarding your chores. I will suggest you put an alarm to remind you to get them in a timely manner. This will help address any miscommunication about what you are supposed to do and decrease the tension at home. If you’re unable to tell your parents verbally, write them a note or ask a trusted adult to help you talk them like an aunt/uncle. Your feelings are valid, and it's important to prioritize your well-being. If you would like to discuss these concerns further, please reach out on the 2ndfloor app or call 888-222-2228.
Hi N,
I’m really sorry to hear that you’re having a tough time with your parents. It sounds like you’re doing your best to keep things tidy, and it can be really frustrating when your efforts aren’t recognized. It’s understandable to feel upset when you’re yelled at, especially when you’re trying to manage your space and responsibilities.
Finding moments of freedom, like swinging at the school, is so important for your mental health. It’s great that you took that time for yourself. Remember that it’s okay to have your own space and to take time to relax, especially after a stressful interaction.
If you feel comfortable, it might help to talk to your parents about how their reactions affect you. Sometimes, they might not realize how their words and actions impact your feelings. Communication can be tough, but expressing how you feel might help them understand where you’re coming from.
You deserve to feel respected and heard. If ever need someone to talk to or just want to share more about what you’re going through, 2ndfloor will be here to listen. Take care of yourself!
Hey N, I'm really sorry to hear that you’re going through such a tough time with your parents. It sounds really frustrating to be yelled at over small things, especially when you’re doing your best to keep things clean. It’s completely understandable to feel upset about that.
I'm glad to hear that you found some freedom and happiness at the school swing! Sometimes, just taking a little break to do something you enjoy can really help lift your spirits.
It’s also okay to need space and time for yourself, especially when things get overwhelming. Cleaning up can be a lot, and it’s tough when it feels like it’s never enough for others. Just remember that you’re doing your best, and it’s okay to have moments where things aren’t perfect.
If you ever want to talk more about what you're feeling or if you need support, don’t hesitate to reach out. You deserve to be heard and to feel safe in your home. Take care, and keep finding those little moments that make you feel good!
This is a safe space to share what's on your mind and to get support from real people.
