I was talking with my youth minister yesterday about how crappy my family life really is. It certainly took a load off, but I feel more aware of what is going on. I just can't let myself feel like I am a victim of my own family. I have to remain who I am, although I am depended on for so much. I get so frustrated with everything I am expected to do all the time because mom doesn't have the time or the energy, dad is too selfish and absorbed in his crap, and my sister just needs as much help as she can get. I love my family. Don't get me wrong. I don't think I could really ever hate them (although dad has pushed it to the edge before). I feel like a weight has been lifted though. I am glad to have someone to confide in and to support me in what I believe in and what I do.
