I doubt what I have to say is going to make you feel any better right now!

I am experiencing some similar issues with my Mother and my family right now. I am at my wits end. If I try and explain things in a way they will understand I get the response of "well....you just have an excuse, or an answer, for everything...don't you?", or some BS like this.

I think, sometimes, it doesn't matter how you say it; whether you say it with love and respect, candy coat it, or just come right out and lay it on them. Sometimes it just doesn't matter and they are going to take it poorly because that is how they choose to take it. Taking it well would require them to acknowledge your illness and take accountability for a piece of it at the same time. Some folks just aren't willing to do this. Even if they are the ones that supposedly love us and want the best for us.

Sometimes it has nothing to do with you!!!

Take care of yourself!!
