We are often the hardest on those that love us, because we know that they love us unconditionally...no matter what we do, they will always be there for us.

I think the anxious part of our minds is aware of this fact and exploits it. Believe me, we've all been there.

I think the best thing to do is be honest with your family. Tell them that you say things you don't mean and you don't know why and you're working on it. That's a the best place to start.

Remember, this is your family, and they will understand your plight. The only catch is that you will have to do some work to treat them better, which I'm sure you know. But it is work. Tell them you're trying. You'll get better.
