How do i interact with my parents ?
since I am leaving the house soon. I would like to spend time with my parents.
BUT most of our conversations are awkward. leading me to leave the room asap.
it sometimes feels exhausting to talk to them and I feel drained right after. I either feel small, stupid, dumb or misunderstood.
Talking about how I feel about things always end up by : ignoring, minimizing, saying I am exaggerating or living in the past, or saying I am an egoist for cutting my two sisters off.
I am afraid of regretting not spending more time with them, they cared and helped me and I don't want to be ungrateful towards them.
but I sometimes can't help it. it feels like they keep a list of the wrong or clumsy things I've done in their heads, ready to shoot me with it anytime.
what should I do ? and how can I change my perception of it?
