People don't & won't get it unless they are like us. Which I wouldn't wish on anyone. I've had my family say Why can't you just... Yes, they know me, but they forget that I am sick. I guess for me I look at it like, Good, I'm glad they aren't like me 'cos then that means they weren't abused "this" badly. I guess I try to look at that good side of this pathetic life. Nothing else to do.
I gave up trying to remind them who I am. & funny thing is, I'M the one who forgets, "I" need the reminding. I can't change them. I can only accept them & remember the things they have done for me. Yeah I wish they would "just get it". But they won't. So I have to move on.
If that doesn't apply or work for you, forget 'bout them. They can't give you what you need. You come here instead which is where some of your needs can be met. All is not lost. WE are here. WE won't leave.
Love,
