I Just Need Some Help

I stopped taking my medication for depression abruptly last week. Earlier this year I reported my mother's brother for abusing me as a child and harassing me as a teen. my mother's sister hates me, she told me as much earlier this week. She thinks I made the whole thing up for attention, ruined her family and am the sole reason my mom has been abandoned by her family. My mom was told that long term stress could have dangerous health effects on her on Wednesday. Something to do with a small vein in the heart. It is better to feel anything than numb. I hate myself, maybe my mother's sister is right on some level, that I ruined everything.

you know what....'f' her..... good for your reporting the abuse. Your left with trying to repair the hurt and damage done while this jerk walks around un-scathed. Cut yourself off from them and ignore their ignorance and selfishness. The fact that you were abused should be enough for them to see the light they are living with a paedophile and to take responsibility to deal with it. Make sure you are getting therapy and surrounding yourself with loving and supportive people. Your not the problem ...he is. It's not your fault, you didn't nothing to deserve this, and it's on them not you.

Stopping taking your medication abruptly is a bad idea, what was your reasoning for doing that.....it should always be done under a doctors supervision.

Sorry to hear what happened to you, but First you shouldn't Stop taking your medication, that's Dangerous. You can't be blamed for your mom's health, though stress does kill. Get help and don't give any more power to the relative who abused you, cause then they Win.
