It started when I was 7. We were in the car and she was telling my dad how she was going to end it and that he better go to the police befor she really does it. That was because she got in a fight with here mom.
Betweent that time she became severly deppresed and me and my brother would hide in his room all day while she would watch soup opreas and drink. Around this time I began haveing learning proublems. I was 8 and he was 6. We were afraid of mother and I would spend the days entertaining him untell My dad came home.
The when I was 10 both of my parents became acohalecs, at times being emotionly abusive towered me and my brother. I became tired of always watching him and I started to want to kill my self. Evrey thing was hell and I hated life. Home was horrible. My parents fought often.
When I was 11 things seemed to calm down, but my parents still fought.
And now from 12 on My mom seems to thing that my dad is haveing an affair, she cheacks all of his

You poor girl! Is there no other family you could go to with your brother? An aunt or uncle, grandparents etc? You need to remove yourself from this situation asap. Seek the help of councillors, teachers, friends or if things are that bad call the police and tell them what is occurring in the house and that you fear for the lives of you and your brother.
Your parents sound as though they have severe mental issues especailly your mother. She needs help starting years ago. Your father needs to protect you and instead of drowning out his problems he needs to be a man and face them head on, and that could mean taking you kids to a safe place while he deals with your mother by taking her to a rehab program or psychiatric institution.
I come from a family with severe depression and my uncle committed suicide. My partner has OCD and her mother is bipolar. I understand what out of control situations can get like.
Please, for your own safety and the wake up call your parents need, seek help from those people you can.
Child services if need be but you will grow up facing a very real possibility to mental disorders like depression and self harm if you dont' do something now. You have to continue being strong now by taking the grown up step and making the change for everybody else.
I send you my blessings and hope little one, may you be protected.

I sympathathize with your problem, one of my parents had a problem as I was growing up and it made my life hard too. I decided early that I would be supportive to the other parent and would live my own life. Hard to do when you're 11 but it seemed to work ok. I do get depressed and that parent is dead now, but the other parent is living a happy life and so am I.
It will work out for you and it is not your fault that this is happening, no more than if she had cancer. Be supportive and dont let her give you a guilt trip. Be the adult, if you have to.
If you feel like cracking, talk to your dad and perhaps a school counselor. help is available for you too.
Good luck.

oh, this is horrible, I am so sorry your going through this, it's a damn shame how people would do this to their own children. I think you should immediantly find an adult that you can trust, (teacher, police, friends' parents) you and your brother need to get out of that environment asap, it won't get any better if you two stay there. I had a friend who had similar issues with her family, and she told the police about what was going on, and she is now in a safe secure place. Do not be afraid to tell, you will be okay. It will be for the better of you and your brother. God Bless

The said thing here is she is crying wolf for such a long time, that if she up and decides to really act on her depression NO one is going to believe her.. Your mom sounds like she needs some serious counseling. Possible medication to deal with her problems.. Has she consulted with a doctor for all her depression? My dear you need to talk to someone at school and see if they can become involved in the situation and get you some help.. Talk to your teacher or a adviser and see if there is something that can be done with your situation.. As a parent I don't believe any child should have to endure what it sounds like you have dealt with. I pray you don't give into the depression and stress and do something drastic. You are worth more than that...Good Luck and my prayers go with you.....

Omg! I'm sorry what happen. This reminds me of a book called "It". So what i would do is that i would go to my school and go to your teacher or a teacher you trust that give you advice. And maybe your teacher can help and could have a talk with your parents or maybe your teachers could find you a place to stay like with her/him teacher house. Or maybe you should tell one of your parents or write them a letter saying that treat me better and if you don't treat me better put me into adaption because if you go to adoption center you can go to a better home. But I'm not saying you should but it would be better to be in a better home were you are now. And maybe you could talk to your friend about staying at there house and your friends mom or dad could talk about it and you can live with your friends with your little brother to. or you can live with your cousin or aunts.
Ill hope this would be good enough

You poor thing! That sound horrible. I'm sorry all this stuff's happening to you! One thing you should do as soon as possible is tell a teacher or something about problems you're having at home, and maybe they could help. I know this sound tacky and you've probably heard it before, but TELL AN ADULT YOU TRUST! Maybe you and your brother could get involved in a youth group or something, and that would help with dealing with all this trauma. God would love to help you and be with you when your parents aren't. I'll pray for you!

oh hunny, I am so sorry, Go to your school or your doctor and tell them what is going on. You and your brother need to get out of there. Do you have any family that can help you? There is always people out there to help you. You need to get away from this, or it will ruin your life. They need help and so do you.

Tell her to grow up and that you need her to be there and the assurance that she will be there. Tell her you can't have a relationship with someone who is emotionally unstable because when she goes down she takes you with her.

If she is threatening, then she is using it to get attention. People that want to commit suicide do. Those that need attention in some manner suggest they may attempt suicide. Your mom needs psychological help.
