I have never really felt that I fit in, and I am constantly told that I overreact to situations or am overly defensive and easily agitated. Most of this I’m told by my parents, and my relationship with them is rocky at best. I don’t feel happy anymore here, and I just want to stop feeling bad, but what if I’m the reason that I’m feeling bad? What if I am blowing things out of proportion and making my own hell? Sounds like something I’d do…

I just want to be happy… why can’t I just be happy?
