I don't get why I still get so much shit from my family for being the way I am. I used to be a doormat, no backbone, insecure, quiet. Now I've found my voice and all I am is some rebellious adult. Why aren't you glad I have some confidence now?

I can kinda relate because my family is like that too. I mean, I know that they’re only like that out of love, but it’s too much sometimes. It’ll make you want to keep secrets from them.

I’m in the same boat. I’m the youngest and for the sanity of the family I will abide by their rules until I move out next year. My older sister gave up and eloped. She’s happily married halfway across the United States with two kids and husband. You got this, just set a deadline for yourself and push through and try to focus on whatever thing that is right.
