I really cannot take it with my family anymore especially my dad. I can’t believe one small thing he want me to go to hell
Hi @user0554, it sounds like your dad said something really hurtful, and it’s left you feeling shocked, angry, and maybe even betrayed. When someone in your own family, especially a parent, says something like that over something small, it can cut really deep. It’s understandable that you’d feel like you can’t take it anymore.
You don’t deserve to be spoken to that way, no matter what the disagreement was about. His words say more about his anger in the moment than they do about your worth. Still, it can be incredibly draining to live in an environment where you feel attacked instead of supported.
If things feel too overwhelming right now, it might help to give yourself some space, maybe step outside, distract yourself with something calming, or talk to someone who can remind you that you’re not what those words made you feel.
Do you want to share what happened before he said that?
Dear @user0554
Thank you for writing in and sharing what is happening in your life, especially with your family. I’m hearing that recently your dad reacted very badly to something which was actually a small issue.
He had uttered an unkind and hurtful remark at you which was inappropriate and disrespectful. Understandably this harsh remark has greatly affected you. Overall, I gather your family dynamics has been challenging and you sought help here to figure out what you could do. Reaching out is a good first step to take.
I believe that no one deserves to be shouted at in the manner you have been treated, especially by a parent.
Please consider reaching to a school counsellor or trusted adult (such as a school teacher) and share with them what you are experiencing. You don’t need to bear this alone. There is help available for you, so please tap on it.

Hi @user0554
It sounds like you are hurt and angered by the remark from your father and also perhaps other instances of family interactions. I understand that it can be very painful to be hurt by those you love. So it’s completely understandable to feel the way you are feeling. Our loved ones may say hurtful things that they don’t mean in the heat of an argument or when deep down they themselves are feeling hurt too. May I ask for more context on what is going on? Feel free to share kay🫂It’s a safe space and we are all here to listen and give whatever support we can❤️🩹You can also consider reaching out to any of the helplines on mindline❤️
