I've tried to address things with my family but they still won't change. How do I just let things go?

You can't change your family, you can only change yourself and your reaction to their behaviors. Some people just aren't ready to change, or possibly incapable of it. You've aired your issues and they know how you feel. Time might help things to get better for you. Either way, make yourself a priority and don't let others derail you from making sensible decisions for yourself. Hope this helps!

It is common for this to happen with people and it can feel isolating, sometimes like your doing the wrong thing. I think it's important to do what you think is the right thing for you and trust that they will accept you in time. Perhaps a short time, perhaps a few years but ultimately families just want to see their children successful and happy. This simply means you are growing into your own person. There is a book on this by Robbin Skinner and John Clease - Families and how to survive them. It goes into this in detail and it's an easy but informative read. I hope that is of some help.

You can only help people who want to be helped. Don't waste your energy, especially if you feel that they're refusing to change simply because you're asking them to. Leave them alone and they'll come around sooner or later. In the meantime, you'll feel less resentment.

You have to not care. Flip the switch. Otherwise it eats at you. My father and mother are so wrapped up in their pride and ego that tgey didn't take my offer for us all to sit down and lay all our feelings on the table. They feel justified in their actions or they fall back on "I'm only human." it's pathetic when your own parents won't admit to their faults... Such skills. Anyways, you have to not care. Because obviously they don't care how you feel. Th e y don't care enough to change.

If you have no one to talk to, try writing it in a diary or try to stay occupied with something that you really enjoy. Writing down in a diary is like talking to someone and you can be as open as you want. Of course it might not be as good but at the least you don't bottle things up; it'll make you more stress. Being occupied with something makes you concentrate on a different matter and still keeps you brain going, It could range from just reading books or going out to exercise and do activities. This method might not work away but you should still try it out so instead of mourning or keep remembering those things. Once you feel better, try to come back and address those problems, you might have a different point of view of them by then.

It takes great courage to try and fix things with your family. So good on you! However, If they don't see eye to eye with you, just accept that you cannot always convert people to your perspective. You aren't responsible for other people's behavior..I'd say refuse to burden yourself with the choices of others, because at the end of the day, you can only govern your own decisions. You can still have hope that someday they will come around, but in the end, the worst thing that can happen if they don't change is that their quality of life will be lessened. But this won't have to stop you from getting better for yourself.

You should try to be appreciative of the experiences you have shared with them, both good and bad because of their worth as being memories and life lessons. This will help you move your focus away from the issues with them and on to the things you want to manifest in your life like your career path and your personal goals. This way you can remain centered, take good care of yourself, and make the life choices you need to make to build the life you want. Once you are in a better place with yourself, you can decide what kind of relationship you want with them based on a realistic view of what they can add to your life.

We are only responsible for changing one person in this journey of life and that person is ourselves. The change you can make is the perspective you see things from and sometimes accepting that things are not going to change is all the change one may need.

It is always easier to change yourself because you wish to change. It is very hard to change others because they have to want to change themselves. It is up to the individual to want to change. Just remain on your decision and stay strong.

It's not as simple as just letting things go, none of us here have walked in your shoes and none of us know your exact position.
