I tried to commit suicide once. I ended up with a 3 week headache. But aside from that, almost all my friends have gone through this or are still going through this. really, I see it as part of growing up. Yeah your parents suck, but that's how parents are. Once you reach that moment of clarity, you will understand so much more, you will be way more mature, more intelligent, and far happier than you would have ever been if this situation hadnt presented itself.
That said, I did try to commit suicide, so it's not exactly easy, and you might not survive it. I'm just saying that if you stick it out and get over this huge hurdle, you're pretty much set for years to come.
