What's Bothering You?

I heard my mom and dad moving stuff around the house to get ready for my nieces and my sister/brother in law who are visiting tomorrow. And i could tell my dad was anxious and he yells at my mom “talk already” like he does with me when i struggle to put my thoughts into words or to put thoughts together on the spot. my mom doesn’t have asperger’s but still i hate him taking out his untreated anxiety on us. my mom just takes it :/ and she just tells me there is nothing we can do just as i tell her about him not closing the door or washing his hands
Ugh I'm so sorry. My dad, who has ADHD (handling it aggressively), wasn't in my life much. But when he'd visit when I was a kid, he'd be very impatient and wouldn't understand my shyness. I stuttered growing up, so I had a hard time talking which affected my confidence all the way up until high school. If I took too long to reply or respond to him, he'd yell at me. I won't ever think it's okay to be yelled at for someone else's anxiety.

After a very messy move, six months later, I'm trying to face clearing through more papers. These papers involve my grandmother (who passed away last year, the reason I moved here) and my mother (who is in the nursing home). I can't leave the papers unsorted, but I literally get anxious even thinking about it. I just want peace.

Thanks so much for replying and sharing. I’m sorry you experienced that as well. It is not a good feeling. I try telling myself to not hate myself and it’s not my fault but it is hard when a family member acts like that.

Also, that sounds rough and extremely stressful ><. That is exactly my mindset whenever there is something I need to do that I don’t want to or something that is about to happen that I dread. Hang in there. If you need to vent more, my dms are always open.:)
 
I’m so sleepy. I’m trying to enjoy my weekend, as I have some family in from out of state, but I keep isolating myself and trying to sleep.

Thanks so much for the support, same thing goes to you. Things will get better, and it definitely isn't your fault. You're only looking after your mum, and it's out of love. 💕
 
My nephew was born 2 days ago and its his first night home from the hospital.
There is no reason for me to think things won't be fine, but I'm not sure my brother was holding him properly when I visited so now I'm just irrationally worried about the kid.
 
Depressed. Not looking forward to my dad’s anxiety attacks tomorrow or the noise and little privacy, but at least i got my room to retreat to and we’re not at my sister’s.

Just feeling super sad today. I was going to go out and do something, but I kept on procrastinating. Then thought to myself that everytime I go out to go enjoy myself I don't feel any joy anyway. So I stayed at home and cried instead. I hate that I'm so different to everyone here. I'm just so quiet and awkward. I don't know if I'll ever fit in somewhere.
 
i’m trying to terraform my island, i just need to move villager houses and get rid of some cliff but it’s soooo much work. i’m not overwhelmed, it’s just that removing cliffs is slow and boring. i also keep procrastinating on doing it which isn’t helping
 
none of my wall charger ports for my phone are working and my earbuds aren't charging anymore. why is everything breaking on me today. [monotone screaming}

edit: wait they're working now. huhhhhh? I'm confused what

when i ghost everyone i hope no one is surprised by this outcome. god i just want to change my identity so bad and flee across the country and grow up without anyone from my past knowing me. it's literally such a dream to think about leaving everything behind and not caring.

DM's are open if you need someone to talk to, friend.

Same goes to anyone else wanting to vent.
 
Where is my faith?
Whenever things are going great, my brain is still in "defense mode". It's literally when you've gone through so much crap, your brain gets used to it, and is thrown off guard when things go smoothly.
 
feels like most of my friends don't give a **** about my interests or when I talk about them so I wonder why I even stick around when my interests are all I wanna talk about and nobody cares?

I'll never understand why some people go and vandalize pages on Wikis for fun and being proud when they get block from other wikis.

Sometimes my notifications (I'm a mod on two Fandom wikis) is just people spamming, making nonsense or highly inappropriate comments and removing things (or adding incorrect info) from articles that other people worked really hard on.

You block them once and they'll make another account! I blocked at least 10 accounts belonging to the same troll late last year and what made it worst, I was stuck doing this on my slow internet TV. (Thank goodness I have a new laptop).

Why can't we get paid for this lol.

i feel really alone. i haven't really hung out with my friends in over a year now, and it's really starting to hit me how integral meeting with them was to my happiness. logically and morally i'm ok with not seeing them due to the pandemic but emotionally and physically i really miss being close to them and talking together. we would always go somewhere together and eat and hang out and sightsee but that's all been shafted in favor of staying safe and keeping the people around us safe. so it also really bugs me how some people can keep meeting up and endangering others while i've been isolated for over a year now because there might be someone out there that will get sick and die because i happened to pass by them.
 
After getting the covid vaccine over a week ago my arm is still quite sore, I slept with an ice pack last night, I'm a little worried because I'm getting my second shot the day before I move into my new house, I hope I don't have bad symptoms. (despite this the vaccine is still 100% worth it though!)
