I so understand the pressures you're speaking of and it bites at times. I'm sorry...

Please try to remember that many times another's reactions to us are based on their own internal stuff, and not always a direct reflection upon us, OK? They might be anxious for you to finish due to their own anxieties of never accomplishing what you are, knowing you're dealing with depression and desperate for this to be over for you, etc.

Basically, their reactions to you are probably not reactions at all, but their own acting out of internal anxieties and fears.

Maybe if it's viewed that way, it can help relieve some of the pressure?

I sure hope so, hon, and wish you the best.
