feeling hopeless

I don't have enough money to move out, or to pay for rent , or sleep on a friends couch.

I'm not trying to be sexist.

I live in a male dominate household. I just have anxiety because my sibling and my parent don't get.. my sibling has a lot of issues. I try to confront my parent as he's the more mature person but I feel like I'm not being listened to.

I'm fed up of the constant confrontations, the arguing.

I just want to live in peaceful and loving household.
Everything is just so cold and dire.

I feel hopeless and wonder why do I have to put up with this, my heart hurts so much.

I'm trying to prefect my art skills to distract myself

But it's really hard

What can I do?

It sounds as though you're having a really tough time at home, not being heard or understood, and not feeling comfortable or safe. That can be exhausting when you have no space as your haven, where you can get away from the world and be yourself. It sounds like you're feeling trapped there, with no feasible way to get out of this situation in the near future, and that in turn can lead to hopelessness. If you are feeling alone with these thoughts and ever think about ending your life, please do reach out to Hopeline, where we can discuss this further and try to offer some support with keeping yourself safe.
