    Ugh I just need to blow off some steam here so yeah..
    ugh I used to get along so well with my family[aunts & uncles& g-ma] but now its like im not that little cute thing anymore.
    Its driving me nuts its like they dont even wanna talk to me or look at me anymore because i wear black and according to them have a "bad attitude"
    GRR!!
    I used to get along so well with my one aunt and i went on a walk with her,my mom,and the dogs and she didnt talk to me at all the whole trip.
    [btw i'm visiting family in chicago]
    its just..its even affecting my friends back home.
    yesterday i spazzed out at my 2 closest friends and left them these myspace comments that i guess in a way were kind of b*tchy.
    I'm just losing it right now...I so badly just want to cut but i know that i shouldnt. I've been trying to stop that...
    i dont know.
    well it feels a little better to let that out.

    Surely having been teenagers before you'd think they'd realise hormonal phases are normal, yet you're obviously a previous cutter. Whatever you do, cutting will only distract you temporarily, a talk with them and a heart to heart could be more permanent.
    Tell them to be more light hearted, because you obviously are being hurt by this. I don't know whether it's just a phase for you, if you really DO intend on wearing only back forever and have a 'bad attitude' etc, but right now you don't seem to. Let them know what you're feeling, they might lay off.

    If not, they're not worth your time. I'm not in the pockets of my family because being with them too much, I've come to the conclusion DOESN'T work out. We get on each other's nerves and pointless arguments are made. Some families don't ALWAYS get along but that doesn't really seem relevant to your situation, I dunno, talk to them. If they don't understand, they're not very rational.

    Your friends are the ones there for you, so don't take it out on them whatever you do. Losing friends will only make the situation worse.

    Keep your chin up and remember aunts aren't everything, I hate one of mine :P

    Maybe you need to look at the personality you reflect back to them. I presume your a goth or an emo or something and theres nothing wrong with that. But just remember they will take all their views from what they perceive that social group to adhere to. Just remember to put yourself in there shoes for a moment and try to fine a compromise.
