I’m Drawing the Line
Earlier today, there was yet another family dispute over a member who chose not to change their behavior. They asked me what could they do to make things better, and I said:” You need to go get help.” Long story short, they made it clear that they didn’t want to go seek help. I ended up exploding with every hurt feeling I’ve had for the past fourteen years of everything that has happened. My mental health has suffered behind everything that I’ve been through. I ended up going home early as well (not because of my feeling drained from crying, we had a lot of people there). After my outburst, I made it very clear that I will only be fulfilling my obligation to help pay rent and outside of that, I will no longer pretend to be cordial with this person. I feel like at this point, I have to draw the line, especially as a grown woman. I put up with a lot as a child into my teen years and I’m done feeling disregarded for how I feel and how I’ve been treated. I did feel better after my outburst. I’m making it a priority to take care of me and my mental wellbeing and I know that I can’t do that I concern myself with this family issue at the same time. I do wish that someone would come into my life and tell me that they love me and mean it. This is the low, and the only other place to go is up and out at this point. #MentalHealth #Depression #Cuttingties #familyissues
