    I lost myself doing stupid things, angry and sad and depressed at everything. I ended up failing my classes, not caring about school, and getting into fights.  more...

    I have been staying with my dad because my mom doesn't want me around when she is sick, which is all the time. My dad works at night so I spend a lot of time alone since I'm not with my mom. I'm afraid she is going to die and I'll blame myself for not being there more. more...

I just don't know what to do cus if I talk about it I hit stuff and get angry and snap at people but if I don't talk it all builds up every now and again and gets to me

Mum was diagnosed with brain tumour 4 years ago and I never really talked to anyone as I didn't understand. She went for operation and they removed it successfully but it has came back now and I'm finding it very hard to cope with. At the start I was talking to my mates about it but I was getting angry and hitting stuff every time I talked so I stopped and my parent have tried talking to me but I always end up hitting something and storming off.

I don't want the school to know as I want it to be the place I can go and get away from it and not have to deal with it for a few hours. I'm not doing very well in school and this year is an important year for me in school. I just don't know what to do cus if I talk about it I hit stuff and get angry and snap at people but if I don't talk it all builds up every now and again and gets to me. I just sometimes wish I was like my younger siblings and didn't know what truely was going on then maybe it wouldn't bother and affect me like this
