    Selena, Good for you for standing up and protecting yourself.  You are not a victim.  I hope you are acknowledging that for yourself.  Please think of yourself as someone who is a strong person.

    I wish you continued courage and strength to make positive changes in your life so you can live a happier life.

    Dear Selena,

    I’m so sorry you’ve had to go through all this. You deserve to be treated with love and respect. Definitely you should do everything you can to move away from your sister. Do you have a job, or can you get one? If you can save up money to fix your car and get a place for yourself, that would be a step in the right direction, and you’d be around more normal people for a large part of the day.

    It can’t hurt to pray about the situation if you believe in God. “For the Lord is near to the brokenhearted, and saves such as are crushed in spirit.”

    Things will get better. You’ll get through this and come out all the stronger for it.

    Karen

    Dear Selena:

    No wonder your mother did not help you regarding your sister abusing you, after all, she herself, your mother abused you.

    You wrote: “I would rather die than be in the house with the person who called me horrible names throughout my life”- I think I understand. If I was you now, nineteen, in your situation, I will move out ASAP to a homeless shelter for young people, someplace safe. All I would care about would be that it will be a well supervised safe place, a place where no abuse takes place.

    As I wrote to you in your previous thread, there is no way for a person to be okay living with ongoing abuse.
