Life..............................

"Life sucks but God is always there"...that's my motto right now.
Lately I've been facing some issues (who doesn't)that have put me "between a rock and a hard place", in other words, I'm ending up dealing with stuff no 17/18 year old should have to.
Family is never perfect and as usual,mine is definitely far from it, but unlike other families, we have major problems. Problems to the point that I don't even call it a family. My mom and dad both have medical problems (Depression and ADHD) and I often bear the brunt of their constant fighting...my mom is always and forever trying to start a fight, and often succeeds by saying unbelievably hurtful things....she completely controls my dad and runs the house, coming to myself and my brother to complain that my dad has done or not done "this" or "that" and whining for us to fix it. It is patently obvious that they bear no love for each other anymore and border on hate.....my mom is having an emotional affair with a man who doesn't know it, and my dad just looks the other way....and that's not even half of it....
So right now my motto is hard to believe, but I know it's true. I've got plans to move out, get a second job, and never look back. It sounds harsh, but I don't think anyone can really know what I'm going through...certainly people can feel heartache and some people can commiserate, but it's different for every person. I pray God my plans will succeed.
