I feel trapped
I need advice… I’m staying with family 2,000 miles away from home and it’s my first time being back in five years. I continuously get treated like the same, and I quote, “messed up angry child” I was the last time I was here. Not to mention, I was also going through severe undiagnosed anxiety and depression. I’ve voice my feelings to them, but they don’t care and repeatedly tell me that I’m the problem and I need to not be so self centered. I don’t know what to do. I’m stuck here, but I want to go home. Nobody seems to listen or care what I have to say. Any advice?
That's really painful.....coz I've been there and I know the pain....my advice is to write your feelings on a paper and according to your emotions you treat the paper....like if you're just too mad at someone write all your anger and burn it....if your too sad bury it....if u wanted people to know about your things give it to them....if you were insecure write positive things on them and keep with you.....this has helped me quite a bit....try and tell me how this goes with you 😁
It's OK God spoke to audibly and said we're in the end of times and nobody cares! 😢sorry

It's amazing the support here, I can also relate. I so much want to see my family parents and sister, but I know everytime I go back it's been the same treatment. I'm till some ignorant kid, everything will be great as long as I keep any opinions/thoughts hidden.
UPDATE
I bought a ticket home and I’m leaving in 2 days. After a huge argument and a lot of upsetting words and even more useless threats (not by me and not harmful) I couldn’t take anymore. So I’m leaving, I hate that part of me wants to stay. I liked being here despite everything else, but I just mentally cannot take it anymore. This is the best decision for me and I think I will be better mentally and emotionally when I leave. Thank you all for the support and feedback you’ve given. It’s all been very helpful and helped lead to the decision I made.

That really does sound painful… Coming back after five years must have taken a lot of emotional energy — and instead of feeling seen for who you are today, you're still being treated like who you once were. When you try to speak up and no one truly listens, that kind of loneliness can feel even heavier. I can understand why you'd want to go back home, somewhere that feels safer.
@NikhilJustHereToListen thank you for the support. I know it sucks for me but God has his plan and I had to make my way through this obstacle in order to find happiness. In the end, I got the closure I needed for my relationship with these family members. It hurt but I got through it. Now I don’t have to question anything about it anymore.
