i haven't posted here for a while so i figured i should.
yesterday i tried to explain to my sister why i want to quit my job and just relax from august until september. she's the type of person who ALWAYS has to be 100% right about everything and doesn't let people get a word in edgewise. so she made a few points why she thought it was a bad idea, and they were reasonable, but she just wouldn't listen to my reasoning... which is so frustrating. we all know how hard it is when no one will stop and just listen and try to understand you.
now, i haven't had a good relationship with my sister for years (and i'm only 18). maybe we'll have a good day and be able to carry on a simple conversation but that's it. she's one of those people who somehow manages to make you feel so utterly worthless... i'm aware of how unhealthy that is, so you can understand why i avoid her.
so i don't even know why i started talking to her about it. i was seriously terrified when i heard the words come out of my mouth because i really didn't want to talk to her about it. but the words just kept coming.
so i had a complete breakdown. i was crying uncontrollably and i was getting light-headed because i couldn't control my breathing (my breaths being short, fast, and shallow). she just wouldn't shut up.
i have issues talking to people about things anyway, and i keep my breakdowns hidden in my own little world where no one even knows they exist... so this whole experience was really discouraging. i'm never talking to anyone again. why bother? they don't even want to understand.
