Crisis is losing ones job due to lay offs, death in the family, serious health issues yourself or your kids etc and similar tragic events, permanently or long term not working ( and not being on disability) isn't a true crisis. Your parents probably don't think it's serious or you'd be working. Have you considered applying for disability? I am not sure what the chances of getting it are but it's a check every month. I hope you attend that free therapy sessions

Thanks. Your parents sound like decent reasonable people. I know in my heart that my parents don't love me. They did when I was a baby and a child when they could control me. Once they could tell that I'm not like them that much,well, then that's when it all fell apart.
They resented me for not being like them, acting like them, wanting to not let them control me anymore, and i resented them for trying to treat me like a stupid child who they thought they could control no matter what. Like I said, they're N parents. My sister is a sociopath N.
I gave on them a long time ago, but have finally decided to cut them out of my life as I'm nothing more than an N supply to them. They had no words of sympathy for me at all. Mom ignored me. Sis blocked my number months ago after calling her out on her nasty and uncalled for behavior and insults (and she knew about my stress of maybe loosing the house at time time) but she'd try to shush me usually and try to then talk about herself, friends, superficial stuff, or flirt with her b.f instead.
As much as I despise my family, maybe they're on to something. I think that maybe I'll be better off by not telling that many people about my issues as a lot of people do judge. Maybe I should start being more selfish and stop caring about other people's feelings too and only care about my own from now on as it seems like hardly anyone gives a **** about mine.
