That's a really tricky situation @Fluttershy1 and I can imagine it might have felt pretty hurtful.
While I can't tell you how to respond or what to do in this situation:
What is your 'gut feeling' telling you about it?
Is there a family member you feel comfortable talking about this with?
Also: Their choices do not reflect your worth. You are worthy of support and compassion 💜
I will be logging off now, take extra special care of yourself. I hope that here can be a nice space to chill out and feel accepted and supported 🌻

Hey @Fluttershy1
Sad to hear you're dealing with some intense emotional stuff today. Anything I can do to support you?

@Jynx - find some funny memes or just sit with me and let me vent

@Fluttershy1 yeah by all means have a vent, seems like you need to get some stuff off your chest.
I might post some memes later if I can, but I have been having trouble with my laptop (where all my memes are stored) so no promises unfortunately!

@Jynx - I’m coming off meds to go onto new ones they have given me no support or anything for it, it’s stressful looking after grandma and her Huntingtons diseases and also trying to look after myself, I got told that my dad has given up on me and it has been making me feel so alone and not good enough. I just feel stressed and pressured to act like everything is okay when it isn’t. Trying to wean off old meds so I can start my new ones is hard. I’m just struggling right now. I feel so alone
