Feeling Down

[Snowflake77]

I am 46 living at home with my parents.

My dad is in one of his moods where he doesn’t talk. He really grumpy.

This time I will not let him make me cry. It is hard on me.

Snowflake77, do not make someone else's mood and demeanor affect your mental

and emotional status. That's on them. Don't interact or it may get into an argument.

Let them say or mumble what they feel they have to do and quietly walk away.

Drop your shoulders away from your ears and Breathe. With practice, this is a quick

release of emotional hurt. I wish you well dear xx

oops I hit send to soon.

I wish I had words of wisdoms for you, but I don’t. You are in a tough situation. Dealing with family is always tricky. But glad you shared. I will listen any time if you need/want to share. I will listen.

Hugs to you and hope tomorrow will be better for you. ❤️

Good morning, please just ignore your dad when he starts acting this way. It's best to walk away, and not say things that you can't take back. At least it's helps me in situations like this. Good luck today!😇😇

hi snowflake, I am sorry your day was so stressful. I hope your dad is treating you better today. It must be hard living with your parents. I honestly don’t think I could handle that. Everyone has different relationships with parents as adults. I struggled just to call my dad today. Since my mom died I try to call every week but sometimes I just can’t make that call. He’s alot nicer to me than he was when I was younger. He never calls me, he never used to get on the phone when I called my mother. Intrusive thoughts and bad memories sometimes make me so anxious after a phone call. Pm me whenever you want. I have alot of experience with aging parents. Hope it didn’t get so bad you cried, sometimes there are deep wounds that haven’t healed and may never heal. I care and I can understand. Big hug from a friend.

Thank you. Sounds like we have the same relationship with our dads.

Bad feelings should never be taken out on others and especially when they really care. But sometimes the issues are so big that they are hard to ignore. Give it time and you will once again be in thoughtful and caring moods or loving and giving moods. Sometimes things just need space and time to be given. Each deals with it as rubbish/worst or best ways we can but we still there for each other and that what counts. At the end of day, you will make it up again.
