OK so I've never been close to my step father's side of the family. They are very religious and I never cared about religion myself. When I used to play a lot of video games as a teen to escape from how much of a living hell my life was, both from dealing with bullies at school making my life a living hell every day, and my mother's lies and drama at home, they would tell me how my video games are the devil himself and how I would go to hell for playing them. They would force me to read the bible every time they came in and would get mad at me and shame me if I didn't shut my mouth and do what they say. Even something as simple as how I walk or sit was an excuse for them (my step father's dad in particular) to yell at me and tell me to do things their way. I finally learned to outsmart them and lied about being saved and finding Jesus just so they would treat me better.
Up until recently, I kept in some form of contact with them. My grandmother-in law has even helped me out of a couple of my screwups financially and let me put my phone line on their family plan to save me some money. However, a couple of months ago, I found out they had gained access to some of my text history somehow and they found out that me and one of my friends were texting each other stuff pertaining to atheism and anti-religion memes (like zombie Jesus for example) that were met as more of a joke than anything. Since then they have been telling me how I'm going to hell and how I need to come out there so they can straighten me out and help me find God and all of this other crap. I have gotten 4-5 calls during the last few days telling me that they would like me to come out to see them for Christmas.
From today until Jan 2nd is the only break that I've gotten in a long time where I don't have to worry about school and I don't have to go to work since I work at the community college and they're closed until the 2nd and the last thing I want to do is ride up there (it's a 3 hour drive) be lectured and go without my video games for a few days on the only break I will have until March. I flat out muted my phone so I don't have to deal with their **** and threw it in my desk.
IDK what to do anymore I am just frustrated with everybody and everything at this point and want people in general to **** off and leave me alone. Humans and their drama drain me.
