Anybody ever ran away or thought of running away? I almost did last night I had my bag packed and I was heading towards the door but I herd a noise and I got scared.I tried callming down but as the sky grew darker and darker it made me wanna run even more.My friend tried to talk me out of it.She said please don’t leave me it’s a bad choice and plus you won’t have anywhere to go you’ll be on the streets sleeping in the cold and you won’t have anything to eat. I just told her i’m fine with that at least I won’t have anyone asking me if i’ve eaten and I won’t have to hear anymore yelling or fighting. But I did run away as you can see cause I wrote this and this wasn’t the first time I wanted to run there was this other time last month.But that time I was actually outside my dad had gone into a rage I ran out the door and slamed it shut.I just stood outside waiting for my mom cause we were going to B.A.M. and when she was about to come out is when I wanted to run but it was too late. There was this other time in 5th grade I hid under a table behind boxes we had in our some what I guess what you could call a porch. I only hid under there cause I wanted to run but I didn’t so I just thought I would hide instead and see how long it would take anyone to notice I was gone.It took them and hour mayeb an hour and a half to realize.
I used to think about running away a lot when I was a teenager and living in an abusive environment. I never actually did run away though. I knew my problems would follow me. You can’t run away from your issues. Running away, may in fact, make things worse. Just think about all the bad things that can happen when you run away. I understand things are not great at home, but there are easier solutions. Have you tried talking to someone outside of your family that can help – a counselor, a family friend, maybe another understanding relative? Sometimes talking can help a lot and be the first step to help with things. If you feel like running away, can you maybe go to a friend’s or relative’s house for a bit to calm down and to talk to someone? Hang in there. Things can get better. You just have to give it a chance and try to make some positive steps.
I already have acounselor at my school and I have gone to her soo many times but she doesn’t know I wan’t to run away.She only knows that I cut but she doesn’t know that I do more than cut but I wanna tell her but i’m afraid she will tell my mom.
I did not run away in context, but I too wanted to see how long it would take for anyone to notice I was not at home. I left one a.m. about a month and a half ago and went over to my boyfriends. I do not normally get up and leave my house like that. It took my mom untill about 6pm that night to say anything about it. She asked me where I was and it hurt inside that she did not notice. People are lousy, but running away would be harder. Youd be escaping what you want, but gaining whole new problems. At least staying home your in a secure environment with food and warmth and shelter. No matter how bad the place is.
I don’t know but I don’t realy care about food.Shelter is a whole different story.
