I've just about completely withdrawn into myself for the past couple of weeks.

I've had enough. First, my mother yelled at me for about 30 minutes for my family's behavior, then one of my kids yelled at me for something I supposedly did, then my wife threatened divorce if I didn't take a shower, and now my wife wants to check on my toothbrushing activity by checking the amount of toothpaste left and whether my toothbrush is dry.

I'm sick and tired. So I took myself out of the situation and I just don't care anymore.

One of my kids wanted to blame me for their desire to leave home. I said, fine, if it makes you feel better to blame someone, go ahead.

My wife is full of platitudes, like how I should drink more water to "solve" my depression and that pills are bad for me. On one hand I can't believe that after 20 years of dealing with depression and anxiety, she's still coming up with such dumb solutions. But on the other, I'm not surprised. The family had never really cared about what in going through as long as the bills are paid and the fridge is full.

They're even checking the amount of time I'm on my computer or watching TV. They want to see what I'm doing on my computer. You know what? I'm learning on my computer. I'm enriching my otherwise desolate life. "You wanna see what I'm doing on my computer? Get lost!"

It's just too much.
