I am a teenager and I despise my dad. I don't even like calling him dad because he doesn't deserve that title. He's selfish, manipulative, superficial, and self absorbed. He thinks anytime anyone is around him, that they're is talking about him. He just HAS to chime in and join, and it always starts off with, "you talking about me?"My parents got divorced when I was 8 years old. After they split, he moved 8 hours away and it was up to my mom to raise me and my two brothers (who have gone through college now). For the last 4 years, it's just been me and my mom. When my mom had health problems, my dad had to move back to take care of me.(after several years of being gone)Though, he felt like it was his obligation and that he should be "praised" for it like he was doing a good deed or something. It's like, WTF?! You're the parent, it's your job to take responsiblity for your daughter! God for bid that anything he ever does would go unreconized. He is always fishing for compliments even when he doesn't deserve them.He will always hold even the smallest things against me. Everything comes with a price with him. Example: (this actually happened) I said I don't want him to keep taking my stuff because he NEVER puts it back, and he says, "fine don't eat my food or use my water" He has taken clothes, makup, hair supplies, shoes, and jewlery from me...confused?Yeah me too. Also, he will talk about me behind my back to my mom and to his "favorite son." No joke, he's admitted that before.Anyway, I could go on forever, but I think I made my point. Don't take this lighly either, I really HATE that person. I look at him and get disgusted everytime. Now he lives with my mom and me because he can't hold down a job to support himself. I swear if his mental unstablity ass stays under the same roof as me any longer, I will go insane. Not kidding, this anger has to be bad for my health. I feel like I could destroy anything in my path. Well my question is, how do I deal with this anger?
