Lately,I have been feeling so overwhelmed. Like I'm drowning and no one around me knows or they just don't care. My sister has always been harsh and brutal with her words. I always thought it was just me who had a problem hearing the truth from someone who obviously cares about me but there was nothing loving or caring about the way she spoke to me recently. She told me that if she didn't know me,she'd think I was a child in secondary school and not an adult. That I looked small for my age, have no dress sense and literally nothing going for me. This from someone who knows I've always had insecurities about my stature and not just that I've been job hunting for years with nothing to show for it. How was I supposed to feel after hearing such hurtful words when I'm in a super vulnerable place? Am I over reacting or is this what I was supposed to hear at this point in my life?
