My parents found out I was harming myself from a friend in my class who told them. I made the mistake of trusting this person.
My parents were livid. They kicked me out of the house. I immediately walked back to school. When I got there, my teacher wasn't there. I broke down on his office couch until he arrived.
That night, he told me something I never thought I'd hear from anyone. "They're not your parents anymore."
That night I got all my stuff from my parents' house and I stayed at his house for the first time. He stayed up with me all night as I cried, and cried, and cried.
Over the next few weeks, I was officially adopted by him and his husband.
My parents spent a few months in jail before being released. Almost immediately, my mom went crazy from depression and killed herself. My dad got addicted to drugs because apparently he was beaten up in prison because they don't take lightly to child abuse there and he couldn't deal with the pain. He started dating a new woman, Sabrina. Sabrina had it out for me from the start, most likely because my dad made up some lies about me.
To this day I've officially cut contact with both of them. I haven't seen my dad in about three months.
