Here’s the story. I am 30 weeks pregnant with my first. My boyfriend is busy at work and is gone for weeks at a time trying to provide for me and our child. In the meanwhile my mother offered to let me live with her for a few months. Just untill we were on our feet and able to take care of our family ourselves. Up untill a week ago, I have not lived in this house for almost 2 years. My younger 17 year old sister who is also pregnant (11 weeks) got to rule the house because my parents cant controll her. Anyway, like I said I have only been back for a week, and in this week that I have been home, my sister freaked out on me verbally, and threatend to physically hurt me. My parents complain about EVERYTHING I have done since my return. And my sister decided to attack me 3 days ago over me turning off the computer monitor.
What happened was my sister (being 17) was grounded from the computer, me being the older sister with access to the computer let her check her e-mail on my name. (being a teenager, her life is on the internet and phone
Anyway, she started talking trash about my baby’s father, and it made me mad so i told her that she needed to get off the computer because I wanted to get back on. When she refused, I turned off the computer monitor. (she did NOT like that) Immediately she started punching me in the face and chest, I did try to block her, but she got a couple good hits in. Then when I got a good enough grip, I pinned her to the floor by her hair so she couldnt hit me. Instead she improvised and bit me in the wrist (which I currently have a bruise in the shape of a mouth on). Then when she still couldnt get loose, she reached for my neck and grabbed the fron of my thought and choked me to the point were I thought I going to pass out. She got loose and picked up a foulding chair and tried to hit me with that, so again I pinned her to the floor by her hair again. She started screaming to let her go and I refused till she agreed to leave the room. After a while she agreed to leave, but when I let her go, she didnt leave the room instead she got up and tried to kick me in the stomach. I grabbed her by the anchle and slammed her into the floor again and this time I held her there for about 20 minutes. Just till I could breath again and untill I thought she was calm. Then when I let her go, she left.
I immediately called my mom and told her what happened except she couldnt really understand me because I was so hystericle. I could barley speak between sobs. My mom said to calm down then call her back. So I did. By the time that I had called her back, my sister called her and told my mother that I threw the first punch and I was lying about everything. My mom said that since she wasnt here to witness this altercation that she isnt going to defend either one of us and to just stay out of eachothers way. My mother is NOT going to have her go to counceling reguardless that she treats everyone who cares about her like sh*t. (way before she even got pregnant) And I am the one classified as a liar. The fact that my sister doesnt have a mark on her and I have multiple bruises on my face, chest and arms didnt make any difference. Also, the fact that my sister has a history of physical violence didnt mean sh*t either.
The following day, I didnt leave my room at all except to eat and pee. When my dad asked me why, I told him it was because my sister tried to drop kick me in the stomach the day before and he laughed at me. Then he proceeded to tell my sister why I wasnt comming out of my room and they had a nice laugh about it together. It’s pretty clear what the obvious thing to do is. . . leave. but I dont have that luxery. I have no where else to go for the next few months and this is not the time to be homeless. I dont know what to do. Its obvious that my parents arent going to do anything to correct this behavior, so I was wondering what all of you think I should do aside from baracading myself in 1 room for the remainder of my stay. PLEASE NO SARCASTIC COMMENTS! ANY RUDE OR SARCASTIC COMMENTS WILL BE REPORTED! I really do need some advcice because no one around here is going to help me or give me any usefull advice. Anything will help, I beg you please help.
As for those of you who are more worried about my screen name than my problem, keep in mind that bipolar is a completely different thing than a compulsive liar. Bipolar just means you have moodswings. (basically, its like being pregnant all the time)
