My father died recently. I have always struggled with depression and he told me the worst thing that could happen to a parent is that their child dies before them. I took that to heart and I am still here, but he died three months ago. I take care of everyone, but no one checks on me. I am very sad. I still need to watch out for my mother, but it is only me. She has never seen me as anything other than me protecting herself and my brother from my abusive father. The son she really loves (my half brother) won’t speak to her due to a complex family history. I want to run away to a foreign country, change my name or something, but I know my family duty. Please help me to find peace in my current situation. I’ve never asked for prayers before. Thank you
