I went in to see my doctor today to get my antidepressant adjusted because I've been having a lot of anxiety attacks for the last couple of months. My parents gave me a list of stuff to mention, which is generally helpful for me because I don't always remember things to say. But my mother put on the list that I'm "emotionally fragile" and overreacting to things right now. Which pissed me off.

I'm sorry. Your parents sound kind of like gaslighting jerks.

I know this is not what you were going for, but the irony in "I overreacted to my mother saying I overreact" amused me.

fuck off, please.

Pretty sure we were all thinking it. We just didn't all point it out.

Kindly not speak for the rest of us.

I wasn't thinking it. Philstar22 has documented her parents' dickish behavior on here before and frankly if anything, she underreacts to it.

No. Philstar has put themselves in this position. Do you know how many of us are in jobs that aren't what we want and that we are over qualified for, don't have free health insurance and dental insurance (and have medical problems that can't be dealt with because we don't have the money or access), have to pay rent, have student loans that won't be paid back until we die, etc, etc? They are not forced to live with their parents. They could get a job (even if not their ideal job) and pay rent just like so many others. They have it so much better off than so many other people. Instead they choose to stay with their family getting all of the financial benefits of that and then constantly whine when yet again their parents do or say something that bothers them. Or in this case "pissed [them] off". They are not a teen in high school with no resources. They are an adult with a shitton more going for them than that. And yet they choose to just whine on FS constantly about everything.

It's the venting thread, though. We go on here to say things we know can't be said IRL.

I want to apologize for the second comment of mine. I have had a lot of shitty job/money/health/family things going on and I snapped. And I shouldn't have. It is not my business what anyone chooses to do with their life, and it doesn't matter whether or not I agree or disagree with what someone chooses to do. The above comment was way out of line. And I'm sorry. I hope all mental health and family issues work out for the best. As in an ideal world everyone should be free of those issues.

Been following this thread and I respect you for apologizing for this, for what it's worth

I shouldn't have said it in the first place. And wish I could take it back. It has just been a shitty day/week/year with no end in sight and I snapped. Hopefully the apology makes up for it even in the slightest. As I am truly sorry I said what I did.

And I apologize for coming down so hard on you. I've run into a fair amount of trolls on this site and elsewhere, and I was very convinced you were one. I've been in a situation with parents who could be very dismissive of my emotions and sorta messed with my mind and I was in a situation where I was stuck with them and many people would ask or tell me "just move out" and it became a huge sore spot. I shouldn't have projected my own issues. I'm sorry. I hope things get better for you, anon.

I have also been in a not great parental situation and I'm still paying for it, and I think that was part of what fuelled me snapping. It is not at all adequate justification for the comment I made. I really should know better than to comment about things when I'm stressed and emotional. I didn't tonight, but I'll try to do better in the future. Thanks for the comment and the wishes. Given everything, it is going to be a long while before things can even possibly get better (I'm guessing, based on where I assume the country is going to go after the election), but maybe. I hope you have a good future too.

I'm just a passer by here but you two give me hope for people being able to get past arguments. I don't see that a lot. Best wishes to everyone in this thread.
