We need people to give us some room to be authentic, while being offered some understanding.

That said, my family reacts very strongly to any sign of anger or simply just needing some space. We grew up with a very volatile father/situation, which is responsible for the lack of understanding. in my case, people need to adjust their expectations sometimes.

I hope you can voice your needs with those you love and will be met with a fair degree of love and understanding.
