I am sick of being triggered by my boyfriend's family. Today my boyfriend's mom (jokingly) said "You're not part of the family yet." It really hurt. Am I just being too sensitive?

I got a book recently called "I'm not crazy, I'm just not you," it's about different personality styles. I haven't read it yet but it sounds helpful. I don't know.

I don't know how to stop feeling the way I feel. When I do say something to them, they say I need to take things less personally.

My therapist is also no help. She says: "Do you want to be an open book?" and "Do you want people to feel like they have to walk on eggshells around you?"

Ugh! I don't know what to do. Please help.
