I want to run away from home. Should I?

I've definitely wanted to run away from home too. However, before you take any action, ask yourself the following questions: Is your home a danger to you? Do you have a plan in place to make sure you're taken care of? Do you have friends and other adults who can help support you? How are you going to get money to live off of? Lastly, if you're having difficulties at home, would it be a good idea to maybe talk to someone about what's going on? Another adult may be able to help you find the best solution that works for you.

It really depends. You haven't told us anything. One thing I know, there is absolutely no logic to those who assume that you are running away from yourself. Abuse is a real thing and does happen to children. Have you considered talking to the National Runaway Safeline? Just google, "National Runaway Safeline" and their website should be at the top of the list. Then engage in a chat with them and be patient. I recommend doing all of this in an incognito window so that it is private. Tell them your situation in-depth and ask them about other options, what to do to eat if you do run, and ideas for where to sleep and how to not get caught. I firmly believe you could be running away for a real reason and that it could be the right choice, but you need to know if there are other options. Running away is a last resort. It doesn't mean it's not an option, but it should definitely be your last one. If you do run away, I recommend wearing outfits on top of each other for extra heat and more space. And think about what you will need to bring and how you will get out. Good luck to everyone.

Depends on your financial and educational state. If you are under deep pressure and able to find a place and money for you. Then I guess.

Ask yourself befor leaving what am I leaving behind if I do this and is it worth losing all that in the future to make a better change for myself or those around me. Running away without saying a word may lead into panic for most families especially if you're a young adult, so please choose wisely and I hope the best solution may come through. ☺

Sit down. Have a glass of water. Ask yourself,is it worth it? It's not going to change your situation. How long can you keep running away from your reality?

you should build a life first dear one :) I don't know how old are you , but it's the best idea if you study and work so you can save money and you can make a life for your own and be successful but running away without a plan will hurt you more than staying .

Put your safety first. If your home isn't a safe environment, call an adult who can and will help. Call the police if you're scared you or someone in the house could be injured. Don't wait. If you're having any kind of problem at home that makes you feel like leaving is better than staying, tell an adult you trust - a teacher, counselor, coach, friend's parents. Talk to someone here on 7Cups. Sometimes it takes another pair of eyes to see and understand problems that we're too emotional to deal with.

No, calm and down and think about the people at home and how much they love you, we don't all show each other how we feel, don't make this decision now, think about it again ❤️

It depends on a lot of factors. First of all, you should be 18 or over first and have all of your documentation and some money. Secondly, does your situation at home something you should run from? Are you being abused? Are you in an environment with drugs or drinking? Thirdly, you need to find a safe place to go like a good friend, family member or shelter.
