sounds like they aren't validating you or your feelings, umbral. hope this excerpt reassures you that you're ok. they have the problem, not you.
The Need For Validation

To understand why people need to be validated requires us to look at how often our feelings get shared. As a society we have very few places where feelings are welcomed. We learn that strength means not crying, bravery means not feeling fear, and maturity means never being angry.Showing strong emotion tends to make the people around you very uncomfortable. Usually, they will attempt to get you to stop as quickly as possible. They may try to convince you that your feelings are inappropriate. Or they may try to reassure you. Even if their intent is to help you feel better, often the message is that it's not okay to feel bad.

Consequently, we have all accumulated many messages that our feelings are wrong. We yearn, therefore, for acceptance of our feelings, especially when our feelings are strong. Whatever else someone may be saying when they vent their feelings, they are probably also implicitly asking, "Are my feelings okay?" Validation answers this indirectly asked question, and provides satisfaction for a profound, though often unconscious, need.

and from another site on how you can resolve this...
That is why it is important to evaluate one's work/or feelings from within.It is both mentally and emotionally better for an individual to do this rather than seek validation from others, who cannot provide a real sense of esteem to the individual. Secure persons are able to work from within, versus working from without. Likewise, those who constantly have persons running up to them seeking validation may shy away from such individuals. One's self worth in everything one does must come from the inside - that is the best booster for esteem, not a false sense of worth coming from another person in the form of an affirmative or negative remark.

this is not always easy to do. however i've found it's not worth it to go to my family for example cause they don't validate my feelings. my friends do even if they don't agree with my logic. at least they acknowledge my feelings.
