Just remember that being the black sheep makes you the colorful one. You don't have to fit in with the standards of other people to mean something; As a matter of fact, being out of the herd usually makes you the extraordinary one that accomplishes so much more. Use the stress, fear and pain as ammunition to become something great. The best revenge you can have in life is to live well.

take them out to lunch and have a talk with them explaining how you feel and ask them what can you do to change that view of the way they look at you.

Tell them how you feel, and encourage them to do the same. Once you can all find common ground and understand each others' point of view, it will be easier to find a comfortable place in the relationship.

You're only treated how you allow yourself to be treated. Do you think you behave like a black sheep? If you think you behave like a black sheep perhaps it could be the reason you are treated like a black sheep. If you try and fit the modus operandi perhaps your family will change the way they feel about you.

Changing feelings is not easy, but it is most effectively done with actions. I read somewhere that people remember how we make them feel the most; so try doing more things for your family that get an emotional reaction.

Unfortunately you can't change people's feelings. All you can do is be loving, kind, and be yourself

Approach the topic to them in a mannered way yet; make sure each family member knows this is a serious topic. Let them reply after you, have an odderly discussion

You can try to do activities with them that like to do, and then you can do an activity they like. Maybe you will be able to bond with them and see them differently like they see you differently. Sometimes people tend to judge people and you have to prove them wrong. You can talk with them and tell you how you feel, maybe they don't know your opinion and how much it affects you.

Talking to them about how you're feeling is a good idea. Expressing that you feel a certain way might bring it light. They may not realize they treat a certain way. Communication is usually the best idea!
