Hey @nayuta, really glad you reached out to the forums again, we are always here when you are looking to vent about things. How are you feeling today? Did you manage to get a good sleep last night?
It sounds like things with your sister have been quite tense recently, and it has been giving you a really tough time. It really does sounds like a horrible situation to be in. While it’s very normal for siblings to have disagreements every now and then, it can be really upsetting to not feel heard when those disagreements are really hurting your feelings.
I am sorry to hear about the comment your sister made about not being good at talking to people. Being a sibling doesn’t give you the right to say nasty things, and I imagine that was a really hurtful thing to hear.
I can hear that having your feelings heard and cared about is really important to you, and while you mentioned that you are not sure if you can talk things out with your sister, you truly deserve the chance to express how you feel 💛 Having tough conversations with family members definitely isn’t easy, it can be really easy to freeze up and feel like you can’t get your words out. Something I like to do when I need to have a tough conversation is write it up in a text or letter, rather than say it in person. I tend to feel a lot more comfortable when the pressure of reacting in real time is removed, and I can take the time to think of what I want to say. I find that it makes it a little less daunting, and gives me a better chance of saying everything that I’d like to say, exactly how I would like to say it. I wonder if this might be a way of talking things out with your sister? I also found more tips on talking it out with family here.
With everything that is going on, I was wondering if you had anyone else you felt comfortable talking about things with? I remember that you mentioned you can’t speak with your parents about it, but is there another family member or friend that you trust to talk about it with?
