I'm 13 and I just want to know if my Dad could be a potential cause of my depression. He always yells at me, calls me names (such as wimp and loser) and destroyed my self-esteem, I always feel sad or tired after talking to him, he compares me to my sister and says that she is "normal" and I have mental issues, I feel like I can never satisfy him, and I always feel the urge to apologize to him even though I didn't do anything wrong. Even though the answer may seem like an obvious yes, I am asking because he mainly says these things when I'm in trouble. I want to know if it's considered abuse or normal discipline.
