I think you sound very lonely which makes sense to me; your family doesn't seem to be supportive of you. If that is the case, try to find a way to move in with a roommate or two. The more distance you put between toxic people (even when they are family members) the better you will feel.

It sounds like you have some negative self-talk. Also very normal when one's self-esteem is low. Negative self-talk can be turned into positive self-talk with cognitive therapy techniques. So, maybe try to find a counselor who offers cognitive therapy who can teach you how to reprogram your self thoughts to be more positive.
Thank you for answering! But in fact, my self esteem is really high and my family is very supportive. Those thoughts aren't really self talk. I can't stop them. I appreciate your reply!
