Constantly being on the edge of tears with frayed nerves does that I suppose.
I'm glad you didn't snap back because of a pet peeve, but maybe you'll listen to the solutions I actually offered you that could make your life easier. Good or bad, pet peeve or no, you did offer excuses as to why you couldn't handle a few small things, and none of them was very compelling, to me. It's not like you even cited your illness in them, you just said you gave up, basically.

You can get mad at people trying to offer you solutions, or you can consider their solutions. If you're not going to move out, then you have to figure out how to get along, even with someone who has the emotional problem your father has.

Please try to be calm and see that I am trying to offer you alternatives so you can get your chores done, not just harp on pet peeves and ignore the whole post.
