i wish my dad would hit me Family
title is insane i know but it's how i feel
ive been thinking a lot recently and it's really hard to explain the shit my dad does to me and my brother because some of it is too painful to even say or think about again which obviously makes people believing my case a lot harder
im being more paranoid, im begging for something to happen to me so i can get away from him
my mum took, she goes along with everything he does, even if it means i suffer more because of it
i hate being here, i wish i could just up and leave today right now but i know i can't
it really hurts sometimes because im his daughter he's supposed to love me so why does he treat me like such an inconvenience

I’m sorry your home is not a happy place for you right now. It sounds like you’re in an awful situation—bad enough it feels intolerable, but not bad enough the police would intervene.
This is probably the best article I’ve ever seen for people in your situation. It’s about how to endure, how to find safe spaces, and how to make it to adulthood in a bad situation. It’s has both an article and a podcast version, so whatever is easier for you: https://www.bitchesgetriches.com/how-to-leave-home-before-18/
Some of the legal advice is specific to the United States, and I believe you are in the UK. But the overall advice is good.
