One relationship in my life that makes me sad is......
My brother. He's been recently diagnosed with schizophrenia. He's not the same anymore and as a family we're struggling to deal with it
@adaptableCamp4466 I would say the problem is not your brothers diagnosis that is the problem, (for him nothing has really changed, other than being diagnosed with the issue), but rather you and your family as you are now aware of the situation. I'm not saying you have done anything wrong but it is your understanding of it that may be the problem. It may be worth trying to see if everyone involved can sit down and talk about it with him either as a family or one-on-one depending on who has the best relationship with him.
@adaptableCamp4466 my sister was diagnosed with schizophrenia too, and it is really hard to deal with, she is different now.
My dad. He had always been very negative, quick to anger, and emotionally abusive when I was a child, but when my parents got divorced it was like he didn't even care to be in our lives unless it benefitted him. At first he tried to manipulate my sisters and I into hating our mom, but when that failed he decided to guilt us into thinking that the child support he pays is putting him into poverty. He only calls me or wants to get together when he needs something from me and then he always gets angry at me about something.
@jikook Sorry he behaves like an a-hole. =S
@jikook Well, You are not alone mate..
I believe there is more parents worse than your dad..
So just tried to be happy with your life or say enough if you are at your limit..
I'm very upset recently coz my best friend / crush has left the city for his hometown within a very short noticed. I was sort of his caregiver over the last year but he doesn't seem to have understood my good will/intentions. He said sth really hurtful when he's triggered and I keep telling myself not to take them personally. However, his leaving made me feel worse. In the last few weeks, he shuts me out and didn't respond to my texts as much as he used to. I know he's been texting others but me. I don't know what i've done wrong, and he didn't seem to appreciate my effort, time and money spent on him.
Truly desperate.
Is the fact that i have to see my father regularly
With my mom. Ever since she had cancer and started ignoring me to date a guy,our relationship drastically changed,for the worse. Now because of those things,I feel like I can't trust her anymore...
My relationship with my parents. My mom says I'm isolated becaue I'm always in my room, I tried telling her about how I'm not mentally okay but she thinks it's all in my head. My dad just wants to live his life through me and hardly ever thinks much of anything that I do.
the relationship with my sister. we used to be so close now so much horrible things have happened between us that I can
@proactiveClementine8918 Im so sorry. Relationships are so hard sometimes. My final analysis is that they are just. It all made to last Mo matter who it is. Ive lost so many in my life and even this summer lost a friend unexpectedly. We all have to accept that we are all on different paths. Thats actually a good thing, not a bad. Its ok for us to move on and be a bit more self and God reliant. ;)
my relationship with my aunt. She is very authoritarian and thinks she has the ultimate understanding of what a good life is and what life qualities are important: and they are opposite of mine. I can never be accepted for who I am with her because we are opposites. I have come to terms with this and conciously try to make sure I am not letting her fear based mentality rule my decisions. I just wish she would accept me for me.
My relationship with myself ...i am tough on myself ..wheras with a friend i would be supportive and encouraging .

Relationship with my friend.
