I’m very mad at my mother
Self-Esteem / by drzombienoodles
Last post
 14 hours ago
...See more My mom said she was surprised my boyfriend dated me. She said that because he’s so fit and muscular, she’s expect him to be with someone else who is fit and more in shape, not someone like me whose a lazy couch potato who eats cookie crumbl all day. But all is forgiven because she said “no offense” before offending me. When I tried talking to her and said how that was really mean, she said I was being overly sensitive again and I need to get over that. am I justified in blocking my mom for a little bit? Keep in mind, I live on my own by myself with my own job about three hours away from her. She said this to me when I was visiting. Also I don’t sit on the couch, I actually am trying to be more fit which I also mentioned to her and she still said I’m being over sensitive. Talking to her is exhausting sometimes.

I need someone to tell me I’m over thinking.

...See more I think I’m over exaggerating but I just have to talk about it. Am I over thinking this if a friend calls me her friend but not her best friend and she is my best friend? okay let me explain: my best friend I met in college and have known her for three years. We constantly hangout and when I moved away, she visited me twice and we text everyday. She has told me that she loves and respects me and that I am one of her favorite people. however on her ***, she refers to me as her friend. But then she refers to someone else as “one of her best friends.” I’m not sure if I’ve heard her say I’m her best friend but I’ve called her my best friend before. am I over thinking this? I just feel like I’m always in a position where I give more love and friendship than I get in return. Like if I was to ghost her randomly, she’d get over it but if she was to ghost me, I’d be upset for a long time. I don’t know, am I over exaggerating and over thinking?

...See more Being in you twenties, the world is like you oyster. You have so many opportunities but why do I feel like I’m waisting all of it? How do I make life exciting? How do I live my life and not somebody else’s? How do I do what I want to do and not be influenced by the opinions of those close to me like family?

Being in your 20s is wack

...See more Being in your twenties is wack. I want to be the kind of person who seeks adventure and has all these awesome stories. I want to live in different places, meet new people, explore different areas, but when I do, I don’t like it. I move to a new place and im scared and lonely, I am nervous about the area because it is new and I’m reluctant to meet new people cause that means being stuck in a place longer. What is wrong with me? I really wish I was an adventurous person, I really really want to be a fun twenty year old that does crazy things. So why is it so hard for me to actually do that?

Is this normal?
Family & Caregivers / by drzombienoodles

...See more I want to know if I’m being too sensitive and this is normal in families or if there serious underlying emotional pain with my parents. my mother told me that because she is my mom and gave birth to me, I cannot be upset with her about anything ever and I should just bite my tongue all the time. Is that normal? my mother has also insulted me (called me a *** for wearing a cleavage showing tank top, etc) and then said it doesn’t count as an insult because she was just messing around. Is that normal? my father said I would be an idiot if I quit the job I have that I hate because it’s a good job and I should keep it then transfer to different locations. That’s his dad advice. Is that normal? my mother also says I’m too sensitive, argumentative, and need to get over everything. She’s never apologized to me ever in her life. Is that normal? keep in mind, I’m an adult with my own income living by myself. Are these normal things in family and am I just being sensitive when they are messing around?

Family can be tough

...See more It’s the holiday season and I appreciate everything my family has done for me. However, sometimes those nice deeds they do just give them more leverage to be mean to me. But I’m forced to be grateful because they bought me things, fixed things for me, and helped me out financially. I just have to bite my tongue which is harder over the holiday season.

Work is making me feel depressed
Depression Support / by drzombienoodles

...See more I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I got this new job and I’ve only worked here a month so maybe I need to give it more time but I find myself asking why did I accept this job? This isn’t what I want to do and I KNOW what I want to do in life. I accepted this job because I know office experience looks very good on a resume but then I realize in order for it look good, I have to put the time in. im not sure if I can stay here a year. I don’t know why I took this job and rejected others in the process. This entire year has been filled with missed opportunities. I don’t know what is going on with me but I’ve turned down other jobs and positions that were so much more closely relate to what I wanted to do but my family and relationship kept telling me not. I don’t know why I listen to everyone but now I’m living someone else’s life, not my own. I just don’t know how to stop listening and letting everyone’s opinions influence me. I hope that makes sense.
