There are many I hate, Here are a few.
One of my biggest pet peeves when I was younger was the onslaught of invalidation from my own mother when I did tell her how I feel, which was and still is rare.
Me: "I dont know Just feeling really kinda down and depressed... I dont know why"
Mom: "Oh Must be cause of work".
Me: "No mom its not work"
Mom: "Well Maybe it is because School starts soon?"
Me: "No Mom"
-----------------
Me: *being angry/upset about something*
Mom: I dont see why you are so angry, you really need to stop having a chip on your shoulder.
Always blaming feelings on an object or thing instead of and choosing to ignore my feelings versus seeing that they were real pains for me.
Others:
"You Just need to be more positive"
"Life isn't that bad, you are just overreacting"
"You turned out just fine"
I know there is more.
