I am being taken advantage of, there is no doubt about it. I am being used for income by a family member who we are staying with, but not receiving the 'services' that we are paying for in return for my cash. Being yelled at for running a fan in July (hottest month of the year) for instance.

I have just five months left here and then we are out of there. Till then-help me bite my tongue.

Family can be the cruelest people you know sometimes. They automatically expect different treatment just because they are family. And while this does not stress me out most of the time, sometimes it does piss me off.

Its just so hard to deal with it when it comes from people who are supposed to, and who claim to love you. It almost doesn't make sense to me.

That is very true those are the last people we expect to take advantage of us and stress us out more than ever needed. I try and stay good with my family but some will always be negative and I avoid those types of people around me.

I noticed my stress level went down when I moved out on my own. I don't even like room mates, I tried it for awhile and it's not for me.
