My parents are driving me crazy. They don't understand that anxiety/depression can cause a lot of stress and little energy to accomplish tasks. I have a lot I am trying to get done, and I have strategically placed certain things in certain places (which should be out of everyone's way) so that I remember to finish tasks and to make the tasks easier to accomplish. For example, I'm making a cake, and I put the cake plate on the table about fifteen minutes ago. There is no reason why anyone needs to use that table right now. However, for some reason, my Dad decided that he wanted to spread out all of his papers on the table at this specific moment. So he started moving all my stuff. Then he couldn't figure out why I was frustrated by it. I have a method of doing things, and it keeps getting disrupted for stupid reasons. He keeps saying that he doesn't understand why I'm upset and that he "didn't hurt anything." He just doesn't get it. Why is everything so difficult?

Parents wanted a college degree
Im not really sure why my parents push so hard for me to get my degree. Maybe its because they think its best, or maybe its because they think thats just what...
Your parents just do not understand where you r coming from. Maybe have a sit down talk with them to get them to understand and learn how you really feel everyday. Good luck :)
ReplyLiving with other people is hard!!!!!!! No matter who those people are. Hang in there and do the best that you can. I agree with the other comment. Talk to them if you are able. My parents weren't able to ever understand me so I had to do the best I could to coexist until I could leave. Maybe you will have better luck. Communicating to increase understanding would be amazing if it is possible. Good luck though! Hang in there! Don't think you are alone in struggling to deal and to live with others.
