My family is intense. Lots of strong personalities and loud discussions. Sometimes, I just need to be away from it all even though my visit is short-term. I just cannot deal with all the constant questions, thoughts and suggestions. I love them, but dear God, they are A LOT sometimes. I just need a break or maybe need a better way to cope when I visit.
-Is it just me? Or does anyone else feel this way when going home?
-How do you get through it?
-Should I just be grateful and accept it is what is?
