  • Sorry about your family. My advice would be to gradually transition to self validation. Delete Facebook, I doubt if it’s helpful to you. Meet people in person and do things you like. When you’re with your family be with them and don’t engage in politics. It sounds to me like you need to build a new family of friends. Your new community. Eventually your parents will die and you want to remember the good times, not this stuff. Anyway once you have your own confidence, your parents won’t really bother you. You’ll forgive them and you can be happy that you turned out awesome despite their shortcomings.












  • Continue to be helpful and competent. It’s unconditional love. It is a thankless job. Do not look externally for validation or praise. Newborns suck. Your were probably a little shit for the first few months of your life too. You’re just repaying your debt of existence.

    For me, cardio helped my sanity. I hate running but I would just take 10 minutes for myself and run a mile. Then I’d get home and shower and it’s like a mood reset. Some people also like cold water on their hands and face.
