I have come to my own realization long ago that I can't rely on anyone for my own needs or emotions. I quit 2 counselors long ago because they pushed me too hard and I crashed and ended back to square one. I have a psychiatrist for my meds, but that's it. I have realized that other people around me and family do not want to hear about my problems but they expect me to sympathize with theirs. Well, that's family for ya. Family also very judgemental, on my mother's side and my dad's side. So, I mainly just stick to myself, although I sometimes can't afford food and eat at my mother and brother's which I don't really like doing. But my animals I take really good care of first and foremost, and who are here for me. My 2 dogs and 2 cats. They are very theraputic and the only ones I look forward to waking up everyday to.
