Welcome to Wrong Planet. I looked a little deeper. It seems like you are living in a toxic environment. In one thread, you wrote:

I have been living in supported living since June 2024. One of the members of staff I hate.
.............
- He told me "I love you" (another male member of staff described me as "beautiful" when I expressed concern over appearing physically unattractive. A female member of staff used the term "cute" in a similar context. Both adjectives sound quite dodgy IMO)
- Said that he has a 16-year-old boy "bigger and stronger than you" and that he never acts like this.
- Said something to me like "you're a great ---------- g-uy" (I'm a transgender male) and that I looked "handsome" but then referred to my shorts as "knickers". He claimed that knickers was an American term for shorts but he was Nigerian.

Please help. How do I not get so angry? How can I talk my way out of this?

I am sorry you are in such an environment. You have a right to not being abused in a supported living facility. It has been my experience to go on the offensive. Discuss your treatment with higher levels of authority at the supported living center. You may have to endure some hardship, but be fearless and brave. Maybe other members on this site might be able to provide you better advice.
