I feel like an object I am only of use when they need something and thrown away or forgotten when they don't. My friends and family treat me this way I get ignored unless something is needed of me. I get snapped, yelled, screamed at and told to basically shut up most of the time I can't talk to anyone. They don't understand what it's like being an empath and told to shut up and yelled at or snapped at majority of the time. I feel unwanted and used everyday of my life I wish someone could understand what I am going through meaning the people doing it. Does anyone really know the real me or pretend to, I put on a mask most of the time just to get by but I am losing myself. I need therapy and am going to have to start going and find better friends but not sure what to do about my family it's tough. I feel like garbage and like no one wants me around I stay away from everyone but when they want something my phone doesn't shut up and I get bugged into doing whatever it is that they need. I have tried talking to them about it but I am ignored or they shush me. My brother talks over me he is younger it's just us two. I feel as if I am an outcast of my own family. The only one that made me feel wanted is gone she past over 3 years ago my dog comes and comforts me when she feels I am sad which I love just not sure what to do about this feeling I get all the time. I am hurting and either no one sees or they ignore it, but I am in serious need of help more of just someone to talk to that gets it. I have suicidal thoughts but will never act upon them because of my family I care too much on how they would feel but that is my curse I am always more worried about them than myself. Sometimes alone time is great but it's all the time has been since forever it feels like I am either ignored because of a phone, being talked over, cars, and sometimes they are too busy being mad at me or toward me. I am the venting punching bag for everyone but when I need someone no one is in sight. I vent here and this is my only output, so I will continue to write here and my journals.

I am also an empath and completely understand the feeling. I think therapy would be a good option, that way you can vent to them and they can give you professional advice on taking the next step. I agree, I think you should find friends who will support you and will listen to you. You need to set some boundaries in terms of your family and explain to them how they make you feel. Be honest with them and truthful, and if they don't care to listen, don't beat yourself up on it. I am really sorry for your loss. Take some time to focus on you. Do things that make you happy, not just what will make your family happy. Pat yourself on the back when you overcome something. You matter, you are worth so much more than how you are being treated, and just know that things will get better. Best of luck <3
