...See more Hey! I'm a student. I had to discontinue a course which I had been pursuing since 2019.. it wasn't out of my interest that I chose that particular course. My family wanted me to follow that career path so l did it for them. But eventually I felt so pressured and stressed that I couldn't do it anymore. Also, I'm not so close with my family. I've grown distant with them cos of the way they treated me since childhood. I don't feel comfortable sharing stuffs that's happening with me to them cos all they do is misunderstand me and demotivate me if I'm doing something that's against their likings. They have never let me do the things I love. Now I feel less confident and scared thinking whether l'll be able to make it if I choose another course in future, purely out of my interest. Because my parents are telling me that I won't be able to succeed there too.. long story short, my parents are the main reason why I’ve become so insecure about myself. Cos all they do is point out only my mistakes and never really appreciate the good things I do. Puts me down In front of others not thinking how I feel. Destroying even the bit of positivity in me. Telling me stuffs like they wish they didn’t have a daughter like me and how I’m a burden and shame for them. Honestly I feel like I should just give up because I don’t see that my existence is making anyone happy here

...See more Hey! I’m a student, I’ve been pursuing a course that my family wanted me to do. but unfortunately I couldn’t excel in it, eventually I had to discontinue it halfway. I am facing a lot of pain since years. I get no proper affection/ attention from my family since childhood. I’ve grown so distant from my family. They constantly misunderstand me in every single situation and atp, I couldn't even tell them anything and it’s like I behave in a totally different way when I’m with them. And I can only be myself when I’m alone with the very few friends whom I trust. So now when I failed a test, my parents keep demotivating me saying I wouldn’t be able to excel in whatever course I take in future , destroying the last bit of confidence in me. And after listening to their negative words, I’ve now began to doubt myself whether I could do it. Also they’ve always told me stuffs like I wish I were never born, and keeps comparing me with other kids since years. So I’ve been hearing all these comments from them since a very long time and atp, I keep thinking whether I should continue to live as a failure I already am rn. And I also feel like my family doesn’t want me either and its like if they’re just using me to just boast in front of other people saying things like “ my daughter is gonna be a doctor “ and not actually caring about what I actually wanna be or study.
