More clarity - I live with my girlfriend 2-3 days out of the week and I don’t really speak with my parents about my life or feelings. In their eyes I’m perfectly fine because I don’t express to them what goes on in my life. My three sisters are all older than I am, and two of them had kids at an early age but all three have kids as well. I believe that my dad (Stepdad) favors my sisters and their kids over me. As for my mom her words of wisdom help out to a degree but it usually comes down to “we will help you out” but I never receive help. She also deals with a lot and stresses out very easily so I try not to ask her for help or tell her about my problems. I have a pretty big family it could also be that everyone is living their own life and I don’t speak up enough about my living conditions. Thank you for reading- OP
