How to deal with being rejected by my family?
Yeah, the title says it all. I have 3 sisters, all younger than i. Me, and the second eldest, have a different dad than the two youngest. 8 years ago, when my mom hooked up with her ex boyfriend, they had the two youngest, and thats when my mother started to push me around. I used to be very close to her as a child. Anyways, ever since she got with him, she would yell at me, call me names, push me around, hit me occasionally, etc, but not my other sisters. I was, kinda like a 'maid', always forced to clean, or do other house work. Anyways, as the years passed by, things got worse, and i got suicidal at times, and my mother would encourage me to kill myself, as would her boyfriend. About 8 months ago, they both broke up, and thats when her and all the other kids would start picking on me more. It receded for awhile, once she got accustomed to the single life. But a few weeks ago, she started to talk to him again, and now she abuses me mentally more than ever, i never go outside anymore, i have no friends anymore, etc. Anyways, might sound stupid, but i dont know what to do to make it stop.
Im 16, female.
I can get in touch with my father, but he doesnt want anything do to with me

This is possibly the saddest yahoo post i have ever read. Bloody hell..
No matter what you have done, a real parent NEVER EVER rejects their kid.
You need to get away from this kind of people. You don´t need to take abuse from anyone. Why the hell would anyone have kids if their not ready to take care of them..?
If possible, move out asap. If you have relatives, maybe you could stay with them. A good friend at your class, maybe stay with them.
You must be strong, and believe it´s gonna be okay. Know your worth. You are beautiful.
Get away from that nuthouse.
How to deal with being rejected? Forgive them. They haven´t a clue what they are doing.
Suicide is never the answer, in fact it´s the most stupid thing one could ever do. Life´s a gift.

Strong, secure, happy people with self respect don't feel a need to bully anyone. You mother is weak and unhappy, and the man who comes and goes is as bad, and they feed off each other.
You are effectively being bullied and abused - at least emotionally. Your mopther has problems and she is tasking them out on you. Have you a father or any grandparents you can talk to? Have you a school counsellor or trusted teacher?
If the abuse is still physical (she or he hit you), you must keep a diary and take any photographs of injuries. ASlso, try to record (secretly) any conversations in which he or she admit hitting you. You can go to Children's Services or if in the U.S.A. call the licensed counselors at 1-800-525-LOVE 24/7. They are trained to help minors with their problems and will do all they can to be helpful; their general website is http://www.klove.com/ . Or 1-800-4ACHILD. CAll them anyway for advice.
Good Luck!
