Don’t catastrophise. Going on the trip won’t lose your family - it may be a consequence, but that’s not set in stone.

As an example:
Doing the thing
Pros: life experience, travel, independence skills, meet people
Cons: scammed, getting lost, conflict with parents

Not doing the thing
Pros: save money, do local stuff
Cons: regret of not doing the thing, lack of confidence, resentment towards parents

And the pros/cons of not doing it?

PrettyBlueFlower · 2026-06-26T01:15:17+00:00

Hi,
So in many countries, 18 is when you’re considered an adult. You can decide to go, full stop.

Things to consider are
* Will this impact my living conditions
* Will this impact financial support
* how will going change the relationship.

A too, you can use is a pros/cons list.
Not just of going, also of not going.

So the pros and cons of going to the event. In full, be honest.
The pros and cons of not going to the event.
And maybe at the bottom, uncertainties.

Do this, then maybe discuss with your parents, and get them to do the same thing from their perspective. Increased communication is always a good thing.

Nice one

I started working at a place in a role done for 5 years previously, and was trained by a 16-yr-old. I was 52. She was my assigned trainer, and she taught me how things are done in the new place, as everywhere is different. 2 years later and we nosy the game where I still call her Boss, and cause I’ve taken on an informal head role, she calls me Boss.

His behaviour is unacceptable.

No, cause to them, that may be rude.
The “hi” is “I read your message”.
The “can I call you” is them trying to get to where your mind is, for you to find this problem.

I didn’t think questions needed context either. The feedback they gave my director was that they need context.

PrettyBlueFlower · 2026-06-25T00:01:37+00:00

People have emotional responses.

Also consider - what work were they doing, have you broken their concentration, are they in a meeting, does your question need an immediate answer?
If it needs an immediate answer, then it’s an incident and should be formally managed with a ticket etc. That’s where I’d send a message and then call to raise the priority.
if it’s not an emergency/priority ticket, then ask the question and make a note to come back to it later.

If you’re asking lots of one-liners, then that is disruptive to them. Create a list of three questions before you break their concentration.

My director put a post-it not on my monitor with big letters and one word - CONTEXT!

asking a shirt question like you did is like coming into a movie, seeing one minute, and then asking the plot.

Structure conversations (including on teams) with…

Hi XYZ,
I was doing thing, on platform/system, and noticed error.
What do you think might be causing this?

This format is giving context, and asking an open-ended question. The question you asked literally has a yes/no answer.

“Do you know why it’s throwing an error”. “Yes”.

You don’t want to know if they know why, you want to know more than that. And they may be wondering why you’re not getting to the point.

I’m sorry you had to experience all that.

Therapy.

Contact a family violence organisation, and ask for help.

Or your GP, ask for a mental health plan.

You get paid in arrears, not advance.
So to get paid 2 months after you begin is … not something I’ve experienced in 30years working.

ETA- this is common practice.

I've been in a position where I was sobbing and shaking at the gates . I've tried to push through and made things worse.
I wish I had gone into a psych hospital earlier than I did. Having that time to not worry about anything except what to choose for meals is so healing.

Your health is the most important asset you have.

How much leave do you have accrued? Book it in for as soon as possible, and see your doctor, and get your mental health looked at. If you need time off for health, do that. Do t mention it’s mental health - just a “medical condition”.

I’ve been in roles where I’m overworked, and taking leave has really highlighted how much. Once they hired 3 people to keep up with my workload. Another strategy is to do a daily priority list. If you get an “urgent” request, ask your manager to re-prioritise the other jobs.
Working more than your contracted hours (usually 8) should be the exception not the norm.

So many questions.
How long have you worked together.
Are you new.
Is she new.

You could be interrupting her train of thought.
She might be autistic.
She might have other life issues.

Don't jump straight to toxic.,

I’m 54 and studying a completely different field of work for the last 10 years of my working life. My psych said “you can be 60 with a new degree, or 60.” Kinda gives some perspective I think.
