Hey so this is kind of dark, i know that is the point of this site and all but alas i still feel the need to warn but what do i do about family? especially when one of them is extremely attached to me, I don't want to live and have not since I was a child but for my father I stick around
My dad rescued me from an extremely bad place where I was regularly abused both sexually and mentally, and he took care of me properly for the first time in my entire life once he got custody, he loves me dearly and I love him aswell, I am the favorite of his sons and this is well known.
the issue with this is the fact that depression runs in my family, my father is almost as depressed as I am and I am painfully aware that if I were to leave he would eventually aswell, and because I am not his only son, this would lead into a spiral of deaths in the family.
I don't know what to do, I have nothing left for me and I am more than ready to leave, but I can't let my father feel the pain I know he will.
I don't know how much longer I can stand living for him and not myself.
