I saw a comment on my recent rant and yes I relate to you so much, I took two classes in healthcare in high school, got CPR certified. completed 100 hours at my local hospital, and took a seminar class about public health. and yet my dream is to have a business, someone in law, or to be someone in psychology. The thing is when I say something about the three of my dreams they would dismiss it or say "why did you ever take a healthcare class when you could take criminal justice? Why didn't you take a psychology class or whatever fucking class" and I sit there going thinking "this is why I feel unsupported," like not every single decision or thought that I think has to be either malicious or negative. It can be "Oh wow you wanted to do this? Well we can certainly try doing this." I don't know it feels like I am introspecting into my own parents parenting and that made me feel shitty. BUT THIS IS MY FUTURE, YOU CAN DISRESPECT MY BOUNDARIES, ME, AND MY FRIENDS BUT THIS IS MY FUTURE.
