Family? Not really. Criticism is all they give me. They rip at my flesh and tear at it until all you can see my bones. I am open to new wounds. I'm vulnerable to everyone including myself. I rarely get complements. And affection.. well I don't remember the last time we hugged. It hurts to know that my relationship with my family is slowly fading away. I know my life isn't the worst, but it isn't the best either.
