My dad has become really paranoid. He says weird things that make no sense, and blames everyone for his problems. For example, he bought a VERY cheap can opener, then when it fell apart, he said someone from his old workplace came into our house, and did it. Even though the doors are ALWAYS locked.

The other day he was complaining that that same person from his old workplace was tinkering with his car. It kept lurching forward and making a funny noise. Not to mention the transmission is wearing out and the car is only about 4 years old. However I think he’s delusional it’s an automatic and he’s always flipping the switch around like its a manual, and it makes a loud squeek. When my mom or older sister drives the car, this problem DOES NOT HAPPEN.
About the lurching, I have seen him add weird things to the gas to make the gallon go further. My mom and I recently took a 4 hour trip and going 55 the car was constantly lurching. About 3/4 of the way there, we refilled and had absolutely NO problem.
It’s all in his head!

ALSO, the other day I went to the dentist for 2 fillings and the dentist suggested I get the one on my left done and the one on my right, and get the other one above the first left done at a LATER date, so that my bite wouldn’t get messed up. Well my dad came INTO the dentists room, threw a tantrum saying he wanted the two deepest done, and now I have to go back because I feel like my teeth don’t lock together..

He also kept coming in during the filling and bugging the dentist, asking what this or that was, and at one point peeked over the dentist, bumping his arm, cutting my tongue open, and he blamed the dentist.

The dentist stopped working , and asked him if there was a problem he said “I’m making sure ur not injecting her with AIDS or something..”

( on a side note, last time he went to the dentist he went on a 3 hour rant about how they put AIDS in the novacaine..)

which TOTALLY embarrassed me.

I have a GREAT dentist, and now they say they’re refusing to take me for another appointment because of how badly my dad behaved.

I asked my mom to talk to him , and she either won’t or it’s not helping she won’t talk to me about it.

He’s always stressing me out, and never believes ANYTHING that I say.

For example last november I got a sinus infection AND The flu, right after each other so I was out of school for 2 weeks he didn’t believe me and actually tried to drag me out of bed and make me go to school.

I know I was sick because my mom was worried that I was so sick and took me to get a CAT scan of my sinus’s and the technician showed me a huge dark spot on both sides of my sinus’s where it was infected. I was given medicine and recovered, how ever my teacher didn’t accept my research paper and I failed that quarter ( But passed the course!) but he would yell at me every day for two weeks like it was my fault!

This is not even 1/3 of the sh*t he’s been doing and pulling.
I’m 15, and he is stressing me out and I’m so anxious all the time.

He has choked me before, although neither parents ‘remember’ it.

He has also pulled my earring straight out of my ear, leaving a HORRIBLE scar.

IF things don’t change by september when school starts I plan on talking to the school social worker.

seeing as the house Im in has mold and im very allergic to it i’ll probably be removed but at the same time I just want him to go to a mental hospital and get better, because I love my mom and brother and I don’t want to leave my boyfriend or friends. Help?

Should I go through and consult a social worker? Or should I just tolerate it?
I talked to my mom, she refuses to do much. She says she’s caught in the middle, and still loves my dad.

Thank you for your support, it’s glad to know everyone in the world isn’t insane and angry all the time!
