No. I went to a family party yesterday and was treated very badly. My mom and husband were both shocked but I wasn’t. It’s the same old same old which is why I so rarely see them. But it’s left me devastated. I’ve tried asking people if I’ve ever done anything to offend them that I can make amends for and I’ve been yelled at and told that’s weird. I have no idea what to do. I’m so hurt. Why does everyone hate me? I’m kind to them. They’ve been mean to me my whole life! Why?!?!

If there is a challenge in the human race it’s the pathologies that ride us generationally you are not alone in feeling that your family is foreign to you why do they mistreat you they don’t know any better

If you are feeling suicidal or having a mental health crisis, please tell someone — a friend or family member, a teacher, a doctor or therapist or call 911 (if you’re in the U.S.) or the Emergency Medical Services phone number in your country.

You can also call a crisis intervention hotline—these are available in the U.S. and in many other countries. You do not need to be actively suicidal to benefit from a crisis hotline.

International crisis hotlines:

I tried one but waited and long time and no one got assigned to me. I gave up. It did say I might have to wait a moment but it seemed like a long time.

Well I’m here your family doesn’t sound like they’re treating you well and I don’t think you should give them the time of day
Dont kill yourself. Things are liable to change.
Good days to come.

Thanks. I just don’t understand why they have always hated me. I’m nice to everyone. The reasons I’m nice are I know what it’s like to be treated badly and don’t want others to feel that way because I know how much it hurts, and also because I care about people.

It’s as if there’s some kind of sign on my head that lets people know I’m a loser whom they can get away with mistreating. What am I doing wrong?

I know you know this, @LilyoftheValley,

But you don’t have to give a ■■■■.

I realize they’re your family, but if they treat you like trash,

Forget them.

Nothing says you have to go to family events.

I don’t.

My family was very vocal (still is) about how they didn’t like my adoption.

I don’t talk to them.

Haven’t in ten years.

Text the lines if you need to,

But please consider cutting these people out of your life.

You may be it’s possible that there are behaviorisms that are not present in you that would make you feel stronger and would make you capable of Defending yourself in the context of the abuse that you’re receiving

I need to work with my therapist on this. I want so badly to be accepted but I guess what I have to accept is that I will never be one of them. I guess I need to make my peace with that. It just really sucks.

Sounds to me like they don’t deserve your friendship not the other way around

I’m really not sure. I feel like I need to really evaluate myself and see if there’s something I do or things I say that cause this so I can change and be a better person
