I hate my family, they're jackasses. Every week up until February, my brother would punch me in the face, make threats and leave ugly bruises on me. He's infuriating and seeks to dominate me as he says "you don't scare me 'cause your my sister! !!" (By that he means the submissive beta female) WTF?! ! It's not about who intimidates who. When I'm angry no one cares and tells me to shut up. I seriously want to run away, preferably with a bad influence or to some residence with creepy talk show guest-like people. I'm desperate to alienate them and make sure they don't know me anymore. I can't wait to get plastic surgery and bleach my hair even deeper. Then they'd never remember I ever existed.

My older relatives treat me like I'm still little. Well that's because I'm the same stupid person I was last time! I wish I could make them forget I exist and that I'm even related to them!

You are 18?

Do you have friends who will allow you to stay at their place for awhile?
Are there nearby shelters?
You don't have to put up with this abuse.

Get out any way you can.

are you able to move out?
if so, do that. once you got some physical distance between you and your family, it gets better. not fantastic, but better :]

Sounds like your brother is abusing you, I'd get him in trouble with the authorities or something. Personally I hate dominant males, I hear stories about them (wife beaters and the such think their so great) continuously and I wish that I could punch them back in the face (though that wouldn't solve anything, and I'm not telling you to do that.)

Some people don't have the most supportive families in the world, its important that you talk to them in a calm serious manner too (if you haven't already tried this) and not get over angry because it just breeds more anger. For example if you came and told your parents in an over angry tone about how your brother won't leave you alone, they might take it as normal sibling rivalry. Now if you came and seriously told your parents "My brother is literally punching me in the face and leaving bruises" then they might realize its a serious problem. Also its hardly appropriate to tell someone to shut up if you came to your parents with other problems in a similar manner.

Yeah, I noted that it was abuse. All he said was "Abuse?! ! HA!! !" :roll:

Why should I note the athorities if he's 2 years younger than me (but he is taller and stronger)

I wish I had people to run away to. Prefferably the kind that gets high.

Whether he is younger or not, he is still old enough for him to get in trouble with the proper authorities. If he continues it again, report him immediately!

Set up a camera or a sound recorder (Like a webcam and microphone on your computer) You might be able to secretly record his actions. Take pictures of your bruises and injuries. Gather as much proof as you can. Then report him.

Don't bother to tell your family first. From the sound of it, they might try to prevent you from getting help.

He used to do it in front of the rest of my family and they don't care.

But the authorities might. It's this type of thing that makes me angry enough to want to drink, smoke and molest children/young people in their early teen years.

Yeah, sorry to hear that. I personally hate having dinner with my parents. It's annoying and it give them chances to have personal conversations about my personal life or telling me that I need to make a change or educate me about life skills, etc. It's annoying but I know they care.

Yeah, your brother sounds like a Prick.
You probably don't get much space from everyone I imagion.

Your 18 I see. Don't worry, just hang in there and hopefally when the ecconemy gets better, you can live on your own or better yet..........ask your parents to put you on an appartment list now since it takes a few years. It'll give you someone to look forward to. :)
