A Child Suffering From A Severe Divorce

The Story

I am writing to you to seek advice, support, or maybe someone with a similar story to share ... I am 19 years old, I am a student, I have not lived with my parents for several months. Since the beginning of the summer, they have separated because in recent years they have not stopped arguing, insulting, and the like ... There was not a day that they did not quarrel, my mother has suffered so many insults during all these years, mostly from my father's parents. Just to finish and leave, so that I don't witness this divorce, and she was afraid of how I would accept it! Well, divorce became a fact in early 2020.

 

My mother is obviously happier, I would say calmer ... but my father was depressed, he wanted to commit suicide, for him, it was the end .. he lost almost 20 kilograms ... Every day he cries, suffers, and struggles he is tormented because he is alone, he constantly writes and calls me and tells me how bad he is ... Somehow, through manipulation, in the beginning, he wanted me to call my mother to tell her how bad he is, just so she can come back to him.

 

He went to extremes, started calling all his relatives to tell them about our family dramas (not that they broke them), but maybe he was looking for compassion? And I suffer the most from this, of course ... Because I both hate that he suffers and suffers, and I know that my mother did the right thing. Now he decided to go abroad, to move away, and I supported him and I think it would be better that way ... But the worse thing is that he tells me some things about how he will go and will never return ... I suffer from this, I feel bad that I can't help him, every time I try to calm him down it doesn't work ..

 

Help me .. What can I do, how to deal with it?
