Im 14 years old and going through a hard time in life but as other people would just say- oh theres no way your 14 you would never understand how hard it can be well not exactly i get home from school evry day and get constantly abused by my sister and if i ever layed a hand or yelled or swore at her i would get the cops called on me btw my sister is 16 and bigger then me but the only reason why she gets away with it and she knows is because she has autism when i have ptsd from my dad being constantly abusive to me too and adhd i absalutly hate this
