Need Advice

Hi. I can relate to both sides. I’m told by my family I’m overly aggressive towards people at times and I’m not always aware. Frustration is an annoying part of being like this and what seems to , say yourself, a trivial, almost joke like movement or comments, to me is as serious as it comes and would probably upset me a lot that say you was laughing. It fuels the fire but you have done nothing wrong. My perception of things differs greatly to the greater norm and it just feels like nobody is willing to try and understand that and get classed as moody or miserable etc..  

This pandemic has heightened feelings for me and am finding things I could normally deal with are causing me to “loose it” 

My daughter is showing signs too and we clash big time and deep down I know I should be the responsible one but at the time I try arguing my point. My daughters 7... right now I look at it somewhat embarrassed but when it happens I can’t help it. 

Thank you for answering...it helps to hear it from your side. I do try to understand and be sympathetic to their needs and struggles. I think like you say the pandemic has heightened things and I guess I'm feeling sorry myself. As much as I try not to sometimes I snap back which doesn't help I know but it makes me feel hurt and unappreciated. 

See in a way in that situation that’s how I feel. I know I’m difficult and hard work to live with as I am unpredictable and can be very blunt and almost cynical. I have a hard time believing anyone realises or believes I’m struggling to cope and get ignored. So I snap. It’s difficult to reach out and it’s even worse when nobody answers. And the most innocent look or sentence can come across completely different to me and it seems so personal it hurts. Hence it upsets me. 
it’s ironic but I understand where you are coming from. 

Thank you

No problem. Glad for once I could be a little helpful for once. X good luck to yourself

I'm really grateful. I've learnt more from you over the next couple of days than from anything I've read or been told before. I think the main thing I need to start doing is backing off when they have a mood swing rather than fire back because I'm hurt or to try and push them to talk it through with me. I guess it's journey for all of us with good days and bad. Thank you and good luck to you with your journey x
