So, I’ve had this question for a while but I haven’t really gotten a good answer. This girl in my class says that I’m overreacting but am I? Here is why I think so:
-They make me feel like shit
-I have no privacy
-My brother is openly favored over me
-I’m always compared to my brother
-My mom will comment on how my body looks
-My dad said he wants to hit me sometimes
-I feel like a burden for needing water or something
-They will comment on the amount of food I’m eating
Please help because I am in extreme need of help.

to me that sounds abusive for sure, like mental abuse and it sounds a LOT like what my best friend is going through so i've been looking into it, not sure where you live so i can't say if it's illegal or not but it definitely sounds like abuse.

This seems like abuse, is there anyone you can talk to about it? Like a school counselor, therapist, teacher, ect?

I feel like it is hard to tell without details and with only one side of the situation.
My parents are the best ever, and I have felt some of these before.

Have you been fighting a lot with your parents lately? Are you struggling with depression?
Do you feel this way in any of your other relationships?
Does your brother relate to any of these feelings...has he felt like this/feels like this ever?

If it is abuse, you can't really overreact, but if you are reading into things, there may be a way to work it out before it turns into actual abuse or rebellion.
