I feel I'm getting no where, I have but gone into first year if college and I'm enjoying but sometimes I think I'm just making myself believe I'm happy. My home life isn't great and I've accepted that fact but I've not accepted the fact that my family dynamic isn't the normal. My girlfriend pointed that out and told me. My mum shouts all the time. It's always at me or my dad. I swear she sees my dad in me and doesn't see me as my own person. I know she knows I'm highly perspective and is strange as I read people like books. I feel she fears it. But it also takes a toll on me when I push on through when she blames me for anything she can. I don't know if its just the menopause (idk how to spell, middle age women go through) or if she has a medical condition she won't address. I know I have many things I won't address but I'm slowly finding myself and trying to find a way to help myself without any other help. Am I overthinking?
