(((hugs))). I am very sorry for your pain. Do you have a therapist? This is something you could work on with one, i.e., how to express yourself so that you can feel understood better and not judged.

Many people do jump to conclusions without all the necessary info, and can misjudge a person and a situation because of that. It's a part of human nature. Also, my mother says things without thinking a lot of the time, and it drives me crazy, so I can relate. She has no filter. Some people are like this. And many people act without thinking. However, I believe it is each person's own responsibility to make themselves understood by those closest to them, but when it's hard to express yourself, it's becomes more challenging and can be isolating.

This can be worked on though.... you could approach it by saying you feel misunderstood, and then correct the misconceptions by saying how it really is, with any given situation. It's well worth the effort to correct them, even if you have a lot to explain. That way, you won't feel so alone and so discouraged.

A question for you: why do you think they won't believe you?
