I think i'm going to run away

I've been thinking about running away... and I feel like I need someone to talk to about this. I don't personally know anyone, so I figured I'd ask here.

Running away from what and to what? Maybe the act of just going outside and jogging and running can feed that need?...actually running?

I wish you luck with whatever you are going through.

a common piece of advice is to try to stay with a relative that you trust

being out on the streets is dangerous. you can expect some shit to happen to you if you don't have a home.

do you want to give some more background information about why you want to go and your circumstances?

 

Thanks moonglow, but what I'm actually referring to is running away from home.
I know the world out there is hell and all.. but I think I can deal with that. My only worries are how I'm going to feed myself and what I'm going to do if I get sick... I'm not sure I want to do this. I'm just thinking about it. I'm not going to run away, tonight, without actually preparing for it.

 

I ran away a couple times as a teenager..the 1st time I really prepared and got all the way from Florida to Louisiana hitchhiking and camping in the woods..I was all good till the police picked me up, I was heading to California..that was 30 years ago, so it may have been safer back then, not sure..If I was to suggest something to you, I would suggest to stay put and work out whatever you got to work out or find somewhere else to live, but running away dont really work out the way you would think..dumpster diving is not as fun as one may think.

 

My dad is divorcing my mom, and I don't want to stay with either one of them. I think I want to leave home because I don't like living the way I am.. I want to be independent.
But like I said, I'm not completely sure I'm going to do this. I have a lot of thinking to do

 

Well, good luck man, think it through, it is a big step..Sorry to hear about the divorce

 

Your sig makes me wonder...are you in aband or what to be in one? Can you enroll in a college and live there?...so family life is hell right now...but stay safe whatever you do!...and keep us updated.

 

So you are living at home and are probably young, what about living with an uncle or other family member due to the break up and give yourself time to plan your adult life?

 

Maybe one or both of your parents would be willing to go to family counseling.

Is there a grandparent or other relative that you could stay with?

The link that I posted has some runaway hotlines. There's also some runaway shelters out there.

Finishing high school would be a good idea. Nothing wrong with wanting to be independent, but waiting till your 18 and having a way to support yourself is probably best.

There might be a school counselor that could help with this.

 

Thank you, everyone, for your help.

That's an interesting observation... and its true, I am interested in being in a band... As for the college part, though, I don't really know yet. I need to finish high school still, which isn't going too well, because I'm failing.

My family life is hell... my parents are divorcing, my dad is angry at his parents. My dad has been fighting with my uncle, as well. And I don't know the rest of my family well enough to be comfortable living with them. So, living with a family member just doesn't seem likely. I'm probably going to be living with my dad because he would be really angry if I tried to stay with my mom. He doesn't want me near her... (not going to explain why)

 

Put your energy concentrated and get a band together!...and finish high school...period.

 

I'd really like to. I have a strong interest in music so I'm going to pursue that. :2thumbsup:

I hope I can finish high school. Its really tough for me now, because I'm getting home-schooled online and it sucks, big time.. I'm currently failing and I don't see myself passing this year. I was going to a good school for a while, but my dad isn't willing to pay for that school.
I want to get a job, but I can't find one anywhere. I don't know what to do, really.

 

Run away and join the circus. :juggling:

You probably need parental consent to be a carnie though.

 

Finish high school. Why don't you wait and see what things will be like living with either one of your parents - you never know how things will turn out. Don't forget that your parents are human. During a stressful time like going through divorce, people will do and say things they don't mean.

If you have the resources, see if your parents will attend counseling with you like E7m8 suggested.

 

Why is that?

That's true, but the way my parents act, I couldn't imagine enjoying living with them.

My parents have already talked to pastors, church elders, and school counselors. My parents still want to divorce.

 

Because you're traveling and living with adults.


You're probably not going to enjoy living on your own either. Teenagers generally get smacked with a giant reality check when they realize how truly difficult it is to live on their own.

Toughen up. Finish high school. Get a real job. Move out and live your own life.

 

Oh.. I see.

Maybe for a while, but I think I could adjust to it.

I hope it turns out that way.

 

Yeah, living on your own and being independent always sounds good. And there are some parts of it that are great. But man, it is one non-stop struggle. There's no adjustment, just constant wading through shit, to get by.

The older generations could do it more easily but the state of jobs and lack of job security today is a fuckn' bitch. Nobody is safe and it can all go in the shitter in a blink of an eye.

Take the free roof and bed while it's still an option.
