After having had a confrontation and being very hurt by a family member, ending with me having a meltdown and depression that has lasted nearly a week now, I just gave my immediate family a group text. In it I explained what I need from them, which is a show of empathy and protection or an explaination of why I am underserving of it. They responded they would abide moving forward. Here’s hoping should I fall into it again, they will have my back and actually show they care. I don’t even care if they fake it. Let them just give me some support in hopes of controlling this emotional disorder. Is it possible simple, honest communication can get my needs met?
