It has become major not petty when we are bombarded with junk mail for politicians on a daily basis getting duplicates of many same said advertisement. Getting robo calls to vote for someone especially when I am at work having to answer my phone as might be clients family calling etc never know and to say to vote for.....i just hang up on them midsentence. Its harassment. And unnecessary waste of materials going to the landfill. Those yard signs. A sight for sore eyes. Its the midterm election season here in Illinois and I am in the Chicago cook county district. Do not want NOTHING to do with politics right now. Arugh.
My major complaint for today is mental illness is not understood enough due to so many reasons we should be able to, for example; teaching it in schools and colleges even if it is only a once off class every so often. Bring the illness alive in people's minds and prevent suicides. I know its not that easy but it could be a start.
I don't really know where to post this but I think that I still haven't overcome how my parents treated me when I did something wrong accidentally, like falling or hurting myself
My father instead of being understanding and calming me he just shouted and got angry. Never, NEVER, get angry at kids when they hurt themselves. Everytime I trip over something, everytime I fall everytime I do somethibg wrong, I feel terribly angry at myself, as if I was just stupid trash. I know it doesn't make sense and I know that it was caused due to my father reaction, but I still can't overcome it, for whatever reason. Even when I was a kid, I asked my mother why he did that, she said that it was his way of being worried, and I, as a kid, already understood that that shouldn't be equivalent to "worry"
I really wish sometimes my parents were other people and I felt loved and all that

different parents react differently I only yelled a t my kids if they did something extremely wrong or dangerous or a bad thing they kept repeating many times maybe your parents do this because that's how they were raised it's not an excuse just an explanation forgive them and move on it may help you to move on
I understand. My mother had her problems with my grandmother and I guess my father did with my grandfather. I try to be understanding but sometimes I get really angry and I feel a strong resentment towards them, I wish things had been different. I'm still not ready to forgive them, nor to accept it. Maybe I first need to forgive myself but that'll take some time
I don't know, I talk to people and all that, but when I talk to them I don't feel like I am the one speaking. When I look at the mirror I don't see myself. When I speak here I don't feel myself. It's a weird feeling
