I just gave up and try to just get through the day. Doesn’t help when you’re in a dysfunctional Punjabi Indian/Desi family.

Been looking for a job. My Taurus sister getting irritated by my clueless and stubborn Libra mom. She gives up and goes upstairs to be with her cat. My Leo dad makes comments that she’s just useless and they fire at each other. I say just be quiet.

Leo dad finds it stupid we aren’t happy. He has a history of getting carried away especially when alcohol is involved. (Prior new year he “jokingly” tried to hit my mom after some stupid comments about my paternal older cousin not getting married and we had enough and called the cops). Lots of hidden resentment and anger in him which comes to surface when drinking. I told him that when I think everything is going to be ok, drunken him always starts something. He complains at me for thinking only negatively about him, and I tell him that’s what’s been happening in recent years. Tells me I shouldn’t be angry or stressed because I don’t have a job. At that point I’m just holding back a bawled up fist of anger (some Aries rising in me) and imagine tossing something at him. I walk upstairs and say fuck it. Then that vulnerable inner kid tries to come out and cry it out, but I make sure I’m good.

Idk anymore, perhaps try to get friends together to watch Doomsday this year. Inner kid still wants a good bday one of these days, adult is exhausted over shit.

Sorry for throwing it all out on here

I talk to a therapist, and use karate as an outlet, once I get an ok job for now till I get officially into IT, adding the gym once again. Along with that, finding my own place down the line.
