My family barely talks to me

And if I talk to them they are short with me. It feels bad man. If I lose my Mom I will be all alone in this world

Sorry to hear. Sounds awful!

Any ideas why they are short with you?

My family were exactly the same. I think there was a mixture of resentment and disappointment. They couldn’t accept nor try to understand why I slept so much and why I didn’t work etc.

My advice is to move out and try to limit your time with them.

Most members of my extended family respect me except for my brother.
He can be really mean with me @Rainstorm.

My own family find me difficult. My inlaws find me difficult. Its easy to just compartmentalise people, as its easy to process and cope. People enjoy comfort and their own version of “straight forward”. Getting into complexities of someone takes effort and hard work. Also takes understanding and an open mind. Very few are genuinely prepared to do that. In a large group like a family, there is bound to be atleast one or two individuals who’ll be interested in you for all the right reasons.

My family always praises me and calls me and invites me over.

I’m so sorry. I know how painful that is. Over the years, I’ve built a relationship with 1 sister, and my mom and stepdad. I’m also close to my biological daughter and my husband. I continue to try to improve my relationship with other family members unless they’re too toxic. I’ve been very alone in life before so I get it. I know I always say this to people, but can you go to a Clubhouse? You can get support there and make friends. It helps immensely

It seems like some people I can talk to very easily and others not so much…. But it doesn’t mean I love them less
