Unsupportive Parents
Depression Support / by braedenbhc

...See more My parents are never satisfied with the career I want. I really want to be a horse trainer but they try to discourage me from it even though they have no experience in the industry. My definition of a horse trainer and there's is completely different. They think I want to be the type that works for a rich person and trains one of their horses for shows. While that would be an amazing oppurtunity I know that's not realistic for me. I was thinking more of having my own barn and having clients and working with rescues. And when I mentioned that they said "oh well people volunteer their time with rescues and don't get paid" like they're not understanding that it can be a career also. They don't even know the correct names of the gaits of the horse. And my dad always critiques my riding when he can't even do what I do. They keep forcing me to be a vet or a marine biologist. Like the other night my dad says to me "goodnight my future veterinarian" When will they understand I don't want to be that! I can't handle blood (which horses have a lot of), I'd freak out during surgery and most importantly I can't trust myself with the life of someone's beloved pet. When will they see me for who I am?

...See more Does anyone else ever feel like theyre in this vicious cycle of experiencing positive and negative things. Like something good will happen to me then eventually something bad will happen that will ruin it. Its like I cant ever just enjoy my happiness without something ruining it. I always am afraid of whats going to happen to me next. Because I know when something positive happens it wont last.
