You need to ask for a social worker. Ask your dad to help you do it. Unless you get help I don't know if you will ever feel much better. I felt like you and I got a social worker and now life can still be hard but I have people like the social worker to help me with difficult things.
fifasy, this is good advice. My daughter started seeing a social worker, and it has turned out really well. I went to the first meeting with my daughter and we both were impressed with this lady's competence, professionalism, and genuineness. Now my daughter goes to see her on her own when she has something she needs to take care of, that formerly she might bring to me and I wouldn't know what was needed. The truth is she relied on me too much, but now she is learning that there are ways to get her needs met that don't involve running to mom.
So maybe Kitty, there are ways to take care of stuff that don't involve leaning on your dad any more. I hope this helps you in some degree.
