So the other day, I found out that my family again is going on a cruise and I wasn't invited. What's worse is they planned this 6 months ago and kept me in the dark the whole time. This is the 5th time. What's worse, they get on the boat tomorrow. My brother, sister and dad are going. They say since I have a mental illness, that I'm an embarassment to the family. They also say that I'm a drama queen. This is what my siblings say, my dad says we'll go on a cruise someday. I'm not holding my breath. I'm so low now. I just feel like a piece of ****. I feel so worthless. I feel so alone. I don't even think they love me anymore. The only family I feel I have is those that live with me here at Fairweather Lodge. My brother is deploying to Germany for 3 years in May. I'm just gonna write off my family. Cut any ties I have with them and just move on because they don't care or love me anymore.

It wasnt very nice what they said by saying you were an embarrassment

One family fades; another brightens.

Even so, estrangement from natural family is traumatic. I'm sorry, Chandler.

That experience must have been so hurtful. They should be ashamed of themselves. I see that you have lots of friends here so maybe you can focus on them and their acceptance of you. Anyway, people who aren't mentally ill have no clue what it is like. They don't know the struggle just to be.
I hope you feel better soon.
