My life's a mess and I need help, but I have this thing where I don't want to listen to people - 'Because they didn't listen to me!'

I think this is about my parents not listening to me - I learned I wasn't worth it and had to always fight for my rights.. Now I expect no one to care and am stuck trying to help myself.

But it's not that no one cares.. It's some people, and I have to find the ones who do..

I just hate having to shove money at 'professionals' and not getting what I need back :P More than once, I've had the experience of trying to explain how I'm feeling and what I need to doctors and such, and having them cut in before I'm finished with 'Here's what we're going to do!' How can they say that when they won't listen long enough to find out what the problem even is!

I've wasted insane amounts of energy trying desperately to figure out how I should express myself to make sure I'm heard and understood.. When in fact some people just operate this way, thinking they just know what's best for someone else without even listening. Oh well, no other choice except to go to as many people as I need to until I find the ones who will listen..

Hey..

I'll listen, if you want to.

And I'm sure other people will do too, here.

Thank you, MickeyCheeky I have found many people here who do listen. Just wish it was as easy with the people whose help I need in 'real' life :P

I know exactly what you mean I'm sorry.
