| My Dad |
My Dad is really and truly a great guy. He works a lot just to pay the bills and stuff, He gets up at 1:30 in the morning to go to work and gets back at like noon.
He just has a lot of problems and issues. He smokes like 2 packs a day, and his doctor said he has high blood pressure.
My dad also has a lot of anger. And although he's been better. I still have memories of me crying myself to sleep because I knew a new day was approaching and I didn't want to see him. He would get really angry, so angry he would try to almost kill me.
You see, he would get mad in the first place for stupid reasons yelling me to get off the computer, when I told him that I was doing homework. He just wanted the computer for himself. So he got mad started threatening me, saying he would punch me in my face until I was black and blue. Saying how he wouldn't care if he hurt me so much that the cops would have to come and arrest him. He basically was insane. After he was done threatening he noticed I still didn't move. He would grab my hair slam me into the wall and punch me in the face. So I obviously fought back but the guy was huge and I was much younger at the time.
It would be like that on a regular day basis. Only one time I was on the phone and just got into the house as he came after me with a belt. My friend stayed on the phone for a while. Until she heard my dad throwing me around and then a click. She said it was one of the scariest moments ever.
Oh yea and you must be thinking what about your mom?
Well my mom always sides with my dad, but as soon as she saw how bad he was hurting me, she would yell at him and try to grab him to set me free.
I would never try to run away because he said if I ever left home I could never come back. Which how was I to support myself. (so that was out of the question!
My dad soon realized after a week or two that he was in the wrong and he promised to never do it again, because he thinks very highly of his grandmother and she said never hit a girl. So he promised to not do that again.
He got better over the years. He finally knew just to leave me alone. I would spend my time away from him anyway.
I then found out from my mom like 2 weeks ago that my dad has really bad anger problems and now he takes meds. (Which I think he should have gotten them a lot earlier.)
But lately he has crazy mood swings one day he`s happy and giving me money to go out with my friends and the next he will be screaming at me threatening to kill me because I was on the floor hugging my dog. It doesn`t make sense. I told my mom to tell the Doc that his damn pills aren`t working!! But these mood swings are getting crazy.
My mom says that I shouldn`t ever argue back to my dad because his blood pressure is SO high that if he gets to worked up he will have a heart attack and die.
I just thought I would write about this because I told my friend how I was so mad and she was like anger problems and I was thinking well it runs in the family...
I don`t know why exactly I wrote this.. Kinda stupid.. but it gives me a chance to let something off of my shoulders!
But I love my dad a lot and always will!
<3 He is after all my dad. And when he's not angry, well then he's the best dad ever..
