I am going to GIVE UP!

[sharpshooter736]

i am sick and tired of my parents saying to me, "i cannot bring you to the boxing gym monday-thursday". today my mum said, "adam i am sick and tired of you with your boxing ****, just give it up".
i got really pissed/emotionaly broken at the same time, but i kept my cool. i am really getting sick of my parents, i come into the car from school and i was like, "mom guess what, i got a 90% on my lab today" and she blankly said, "okay, thats GREAT" in a sarcasim voice....

is it just me or do my family hate me?

my mom, dad, and sister make fun of me, call me names, tell me im going to be nothing when i grow up, parents hit me, they always forget about me like one time i came home from school late from extra help and everyone in the house was gone. i called up my mom and she said,"oh we thought you were at a track meet so we went out"....it was about 5pm at the time, i didnt have dinner that night, i just decided to eat some jello...


do you ever get that weird feeling inside of you, like its a sunken feeling, like theres no hope left? i have been getting this feeling everytime i talk to my parents for the past 4 years....

alot of things are starting to get me pissed off...i really think i dont have a family with my family....when i am forunate to go over my friends house's i see how there parents act to there kids and it is the total opposite of how my parents treat me...

did anyone ever have this experience with there parents because i think i have it bad, but i dont know...


i am really emotionally broken right now, i dont want to eat, i dont want to talk, i just want to ****ing box...

is there really any point for me to be living anymore i CANT take it!

does anyone know how i should talk to my parents because honestly i am kinda scared of them to speak to them...i really dont have anyone to talk to, except you guys and i really appreciate this...


sorry if this is in the wrong forum or thread or w/e i just needed to express how i felt right now.....sorry.

I kinda hate my parents and I dont know what they feel towards me. I simply dont care, I'm joining up the army in 2 years and I'm occupied with my own things. I barely talk to them. I was feeling like you for quite a while but got over it. Finding a gf helped me with it a lot. I dont really know how to help you. You just have to find your own way to deal with it I think because everyones different and u might feel different depending on what you do. And dont ever do anything that someone tells you to but u dont feel like doing it. You'll just keep thinking about it and it wont go away. Learned on my short experience. Good luck man.

dude, sounds like your parents should not have become parents. that being said, you have to play the hand you're dealt. I would talk to them, let them know how you are feeling, because maybe they have no idea and will start paying more attention. If they dont respond well, **** them, but you've got nothing to lose by talking to them. If they are into it, maybe do some family counseling... best thing that ever happened to me. It's ashamed that parents are able to **** us up so bad (but then again, they are the same **** ups that we are, just slipped on past the goalie).

Anyway, dont give up. there are plenty of people out there that you will find that can be there for you if your parents wont (a trainer, a teacher, a preacher [im not one for religious types, but they help some people out], a boss, a friend), but dont give up.

sad as it may seem those things should push you more to be better and better at what you do you need that hunnger to get further you can become something no one ever expected if you learn how to deal with life circumstances as they are and you got the hunger.

Its this kind of adversity that makes a man out of someone.

Maybe you are better off than you thought.



At your age, you might as well keep boxing. Think about 7-8 years training in something. Of coarse you'll make something of yourself.


Also, understand that maybe your parents arent perfect. Everybody has problems. You keep the feelings bottled up and it comes out in other ways.

thanks everyone...i am going to go talk with them now...

**** 'em.

This sport is about scraping yourself off the canvas, spitting out your own blood, and slamming your gloves together. Things suck. Were I you, I'd tell my parents to get the **** off my back and I'd make my own way. And I'd blow town the day after graduation.

Oh, wait. I did.

My parents were, by modern standards, abusive; I won't go into details but it sounds a lot like what you're going through. I lived at friends' houses through most of high school. I think my friends' parents figured it out but this was back in the days when the school, church, state, etc. wouldn't dare get involved. The 80's were the ****ing Dark Ages compared to the way most of you have it now. But I digress.

I'd tough it out and see if I could find a college with a boxing team, or a school in a good boxing town -- Philly or New York. If your grades suck, get a tutor and get your **** together. Schoolwork should be EASY compared to boxing. Nobody's punching you in the head. I hope.

Study, box, harden up, and plan yourself a new life, because one starts right after graduation. Start making your own way now, and you will be better off for it than your buddies will be, calling their parents being homesick and spending their first two years of college wondering what the **** went wrong. Were I you, I'd try to get a job and have a couple months' rent saved up so I could get a room in whatever town my college of choice was in, and I'd leave town graduation night and spend the summer scamming local chicks in a new town. And boxing.

As for a reason to live, trust me on this one. There's a whole new world that happens once you leave your hometown and your high school. There's no reason you should ever have to see anyone again that you don't want to. Including, should you choose, your parents. It would be hard, but it is possible.

If you're seriously thinking about suicide read THIS. And if that doesn't do it, PM me and I'll give you an email address where we can talk.

How old are you?

Dont worry,my mom thinks boxing is just a hobby and I should go back to College. I dont tell her about boxing and what I do and such.So what you should do is prove to her that you want it.Even if you have to get a friend or a bus to give you a ride.

Goddammit, Corey, go back to college.

Goddammit, Corey, go back to college.

Once boxing is somewhat established I'll be going back.
