Failed in love, mocked by my parents, I only wish I had never been born. By Anonymous | Published on December 18, 2024

I had wanted to use romance as an escape from my family of origin. Now, after three years, my relationship has also failed, and every day I face my parents' sarcastic remarks. They make me do things I don't want to do, and I'm 21 years old, feeling like a puppet. Even the most basic emotions are not supposed to exist in my parents' eyes, and I'm exhausted. Since the breakup, I haven't been able to sleep through the night, crying every day, and my days and nights are turned upside down. I can't focus on work like before, and I don't know what's wrong with me.

Good morning. From your statement, I understand that you are currently experiencing a period of low mood, during which you feel unable to find your self-confidence or the warmth you desire at home. Based on your statement, I will analyse the situation and provide advice. I hope it will be of benefit to you.

Firstly, we will address the issue of failed relationships.

Your statement does not indicate your gender, so I am unable to ascertain whether you are a boy or a girl. Regardless of whether you are a boy or a girl, I would like to state that a failed relationship is a process that everyone must experience in their lives. Some people are luckier and one relationship can last a lifetime, but the chances of this are very rare in the world. Therefore, we must have the courage to face a failed relationship and identify the reasons for the failure. If it is considered a personal problem, we must address it. If it is attributed to someone else, we must establish a foundation of correct values and continue to find the other half of our future.

Following the breakdown of a relationship, it is to be expected that the individual concerned will experience feelings of sadness. While the parents' reaction may have been somewhat extreme, it is important to recognise that not every parent will be able to demonstrate understanding, and that not every method of expressing love will be to the individual's liking.

It is possible that they simply wish to demonstrate care and understanding, rather than employing sarcasm. It is also conceivable that they lack the requisite skills to articulate their thoughts and feelings.

Love is a personal matter, and success and failure are closely related to the individual. It is important to reflect on oneself and sort out one's experiences of love, whether positive or negative. These experiences shape our past and inform our future decisions. It is essential to leave the positive experiences and move on from the negative ones.

Secondly, with regard to the parents' attitude

As indicated in your statement, your parents have difficulty expressing themselves and communicating with the next generation. They are particularly challenged when providing emotional support for their children.

Firstly, it is essential to clarify our position and gain a clear understanding of the situation within our own family. Given that some aspects are beyond our control, it is vital to focus on developing a positive future for ourselves, rather than allowing our original family to influence our decisions.

Since this approach is ineffective for the parents, we must adopt a more constructive mindset and address the issues from within. I believe you also want to avoid your next generation facing the same challenges you currently face.

If you are dissatisfied with your parents' approach, it is important to communicate with them frankly. This is an effective way to resolve the issue. Discuss the challenges you are facing due to the breakup with your parents and express your genuine feelings. While they cannot fully empathize with your situation, they will understand your sadness.

It is important to demonstrate your attitude and express your expectations in order to receive support from your parents and gain insights into their experiences. If they are unable to provide this, it is essential to maintain your composure, take responsibility for your own growth, and address the challenges you are currently facing independently. Avoid resorting to escape mechanisms, complaining, or self-harm.

Thirdly, with regard to your current situation, work is also a factor.

It is important to continue working hard, as this will lead to greater success. This is a timeless principle that has proven to be effective in many situations.

If you leave your job and lose your sense of purpose because of a broken heart, you will face significant challenges in your professional life. Your parents may also perceive that you are struggling to recover from this setback, which could impact their perception of your ability to perform at work. In terms of communication, this could lead to further difficulties in your current work environment.

When you are busy at work, you will forget some unhappy things and release all your bad moods and happy things at work. Perhaps one day you will find that you have forgotten those unhappy things, and your work has reached a new level.

I will conclude with some advice that I hope will be of assistance to you.

It is important to recognize that parents gave us life, and that this blood relationship is not something we can change. We must learn to accept it and to change from within, regulating our emotions and avoiding excessive complaining. It is also important to recognize that parents are not always adept at communicating.

Life on the road will undoubtedly encounter more difficulties and setbacks. This is simply one of the minor plateaus that must be faced and overcome. In the event of setbacks, it is essential to learn how to solve them, not avoid them, and not allow them to negatively impact our physical and mental well-being.

We learn to persevere in the face of adversity and not be blinded by it. Perhaps this is precisely one of the conditions that will allow you to overcome challenges. Learn to find a new way of working in difficult times. Even if there is no support from colleagues, we must perform our roles effectively and with a positive attitude.

It is important to recognize the value of your presence in this world and to appreciate every moment.

Your willingness to seek assistance demonstrates your awareness of the challenges in your current situation and your consideration of potential solutions. However, you may lack the confidence to take this next step.

There is a distinction between saying and doing. It is relatively simple to articulate a concept or idea, but much more challenging to implement it. Therefore, I commend you for taking the initial step towards transforming your future. The journey ahead is still lengthy, and I hope you can swiftly emerge from this challenging situation and embrace each day with a positive outlook.

Give yourself a hug!

You need to take a break, relax, and stop being sarcastic with your parents.

Turn off all external factors that affect you, but that doesn't mean ignoring your parents. It means keeping a cool head about their attitude.

No matter what problems we face or what challenges we encounter along the way,

If we don't stand up for ourselves, we're on our own.

Ultimately, only you can help yourself. My goal is to survive.

I'm prepared to take risks to ensure my survival. At least, that's my belief.

It's not a good idea to take it out on the landlord just because you're heartbroken.

Not having a job doesn't mean you've failed.

Even if our parents don't approve, no one else will either.

And I, for one, have to accept myself!

I care a lot about my parents' sarcasm because they're the people closest to us.

It's often the case that the harm done by those closest to us is greater than that done by anyone outside the family.

The host has expectations and relies on them, thinking that at least their loved ones should treat them better.

So, the first thing to do is to heal the root of the problem from within by freeing yourself from the harm caused by loved ones.

The original poster said:

I thought I could escape my original family by falling in love. It didn't work out after three years.

If love isn't a way out of your original family, you've got to rely on your own efforts to find yourself.

It's important to focus on building your inner strength, improving your earning potential, and truly breaking free from the limitations imposed by others.

It takes time to build a strong heart. You have to put in the work every day and stick with it.

The first step is to tackle the small things in front of you.

Meditation

There are lots of benefits to meditation. It can help you calm down and observe your inner self more effectively.

It helps you focus on the present and not get distracted by trivial matters. Once you've calmed down, you can think about what to do next.

Reading

Once you've reached a stable and calm state, reading and absorbing knowledge can nourish your mind and brain with sufficient knowledge.

To find your life goals and direction and really figure out your own path. When you lose your way, turn to books.

No matter what kind of book it is, if it piques your interest, it will definitely give you the answer.

It's also a good idea to get some exercise.

Exercise is great for your body and mind. It gives you more energy and helps you think more clearly.

You don't have to go to the gym, but it's important to stay healthy. Working out the right way will also give you more confidence.

Boost your professional skills.

Professional ability is what lets us work in a field, help others, get paid what we deserve, and support ourselves.

People who are financially, personally, and spiritually independent can handle whatever comes their way and help others when they need it.

The current landlord is just a bit blinded by the haze in front of him.

I truly believe that the host can find the treasures within himself and stand up again!

I'm Warm June, and I just wanted to say that I love you, the world, and I'm here for you!

My daughter is about your age, so please allow me to call you that.

From what you've told me, it seems like you're looking for a way out. When we're traumatized, our instinct is to find a way to defend ourselves. I've been there too. I found a way out, but it wasn't the right one. Your way out is based on other people. You want to find someone or something else that can help you, and grab onto it so that you can escape.

I want to say that you have great potential and ideas. Sometimes it's better to rely on yourself than on other things.

It's tough when you're heartbroken, can't sleep, cry all day, see things in reverse, and feel helpless. I get it. You're hoping to escape through a relationship.

When you lose love, it can be really hard to sleep and you might find yourself crying every day. I know it's a tough time and you might feel like you have nowhere to turn. Sometimes, running away in a relationship is the only way you know how to cope.

But when you take a look at your own situation and tell the story of your current circumstances, you're actually fighting back and screaming. Your subconscious mind wants to stand up and start living again. This is the power you have within yourself, so rely on yourself and make yourself strong!

After a breakup, you feel pain and helplessness. You have no interest in things and no desire to go to work. We're only human, and we've been traumatized. It hurts, and we need time to heal.

During this time, try to make yourself a little more comfortable, don't push yourself too hard, and let yourself calm down. My child, build a safe haven for yourself in your heart, put all your goodness in it, go in there every day, let go of yourself, and let the warm sunshine embrace you.

Give yourself time to heal.

I feel you on so many levels. It's really tough when we try to find solace in relationships only to be let down again. Now facing my family's pressure and criticism is like reopening old wounds. At 21, I thought I'd have more control over my life. This heartbreak has really shaken me, affecting every part of my day. Sleepless nights and endless tears seem to have taken over.

Ryan Jackson A teacher's dedication to the growth of students' minds is a noble crusade.

It's incredibly hard dealing with parents who don't acknowledge your feelings. I went through a similar phase where nothing I did was ever good enough for them. Losing a relationship while having to deal with that kind of environment can really mess you up inside. The exhaustion from crying and the inability to focus on work it's all just too much sometimes. I wish things could get better soon.

Ximena Silva Forgiveness is the doorway to freedom and a new beginning.

The struggle is real when your own family doesn't validate your emotions. I'm 21 too, and I feel like I should be making my own choices. But after the breakup, everything feels so overwhelming. My sleep pattern's completely off, and I find myself unable to cope with work as I used to. It's like the ground beneath me has shifted, and I don't know how to regain my footing.

Conan Thomas A teacher's kindness is a balm to a student's troubled heart and a boost to their learning.

Facing sarcastic remarks from my parents daily is draining. I had hoped love would provide an escape, but now it's just another layer of pain. At this age, I want to stand on my own two feet, but instead, I feel like I'm being manipulated into actions against my will. The past few months have been a blur of sleepless nights and tears. I miss the days when I could focus on work without feeling this heavy weight on my chest.
