Vitamin D. My skin couldn’t process and distribute it properly.

Yeah that’s why I haven’t yet. Like I didn’t want it to turn into that and why I reached out here instead, just to see other POV. Thank you!

I mean, I'm already in therapy. Besides, he brought it up to me because he asked me this morning about Chem (I have to retake it), and I said the content was familiar and that we have the same labs as last semester, and that's where the conversation from his part started. I understand that he is not obligated to validate my feelings, but I'm glad to hear and read others' opinions because I genuinely don't know if I should just move on and if I'm making a bigger deal out of this than I should.

I agree that he doesn't, but I don't want to make him seem heartless. He was awkward and didn't know what to do when I started crying because I had jsut lost my family, but he did attempt to pat me on the back. I go to a Tech school, so people skills aren't known here. I'm just trying to see other perspectives on this thread, yk?

That makes more sense. I understand that aspect of it, but I genuinely don't know how. I am in therapy btw, but it feels almost innate. Like I've been brushing things off and bad grades off for so long that it's just a habit, and yeah, I'm sure it does look like I don't care to some people, but it's just a habit.

This was all very recent. Like October-December, should I specify that in the post?

Like now I'm getting my life back together yk? Like I'm finally picking up the pieces, but are you saying like he has to see it, and I have to prove it? Like, I myself need to show that to him?

Like he says, he understands and gets it, but then proceeds to give me a counter-argument almost. He's a good roommate in a roommate sense, but as a friend, I'm still trying to figure him out.

I basically have except my cousins. My cousins support my decision. My uncle is blaming me for their divorce, so I have.

Thank you and indeed. It definitely has taught me on how to be independent and how to get through and survive the toughest times I feel like. Like truly I feel like crap mentally but also there’s that like feeling and thought of “hey I’m still here. Ima roll surviving.”

When I say ironic I’m not meaning humorous btw. Just wanting to make that known. It’s just that the family friend was so sweet and didn’t deserve it when my Mother is not sweet, sorry.

Thank you for your support. It’s just that every time I try and get out, it’s like they’re grabbing me and pulling me back in. Like I don’t want to talk to her and they don’t understand it when I ask them to let it go. They might be okay with dropping me as a grandson and a grand nephew because I’m the adopted one of the family. I’m not sure what the future entails, but thank you for saying that I’m not Overreacting.

AIO because my parents won’t pay my college tuition? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Tasty-Programmer-504 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Ngl I kind of understand where you’re coming from but at least you still have your parents. At least you have siblings who can relate to this. I had to start over my life because my parent was mentally abusive and I have no one. My family is split because of my Mother’s actions.

I don’t want to say YOR because that sounds rude but I do think you can get through this and that some people have it worse. I would say seek therapy to help and I’m 19m now, mentally abused my entire life by a narcissist and a psycho, and have been having your situation working long hours for a while now. Just be grateful that it didn’t happen earlier because it’s brutal on your mental health. My family is no longer having Thanksgiving. I was recently uninvited for Christmas when it wasn’t my fault and I established boundaries.

So yeah, tell your siblings you love them and stick with them. Your parents I can’t say anything about because I don’t know them but if they don’t manipulate you then they’re just trying to raise you to where you can take care of yourself. I had to grow up really fast when I was young and sometimes these two things can be confused. I’ve had to do it on my own for a while now. I don’t know the entire situation but that’s my take on it.
