Why is it my grandmother can treat me like a child? She sometimes can treat me like child. She probably doesn't treat her adult children like that. I LOVE it that I don't talk to everyone in my family everyday, everyone is too busy to talk to me.... GOOD! It would be overwhelming to talk to everyone, my grandmother had 7 children, she is my mom's mother, my other grandparents are dead, I only have one grandparent.

I hate having cerebral palsy & asperger, I want to be normal. I want to work, have a boyfriend, live in a house again & be MORE Responsible in life. If I wasn't disabled, I wouldn't have to deal with the SSI, they send me forms to fill out to see if I'm still disabled. I called my grandmother & she tells me, I need to talk to my sister about the SSI. Why should I talk to her!? Because she's my sister & I need help, cuz I'm stupid, I'm not doing a very good job taking care of myself. I know she's my sister & I need help. Why would you want help from somebody that thinks they know you very very good!? And think nothing wrong with you, cuz of your asperger. She's get me Soooooo angry & she cause me stress, she's not acting like a sister, she can cause me physical damage, cuz I can get toooo upset. I DON'T WANT her help! I have Regional Center & Independent Living Skill people. I hate myself now! Its raining, it's been raining all day, I may go outside & catch my death of cold & die.

That sounds really stressful. I would hate not being able to be independent. I thought for a long time that I was going to be physically disabled, but I'm on a medication that helps the arthritis enough so that I feel almost normal.

I don't know what to say. I've had so many of the feelings that you have now, in the past when I was sick. I hated having to depend on other people. Now I feel ok to start working again but it's been years.

I don't know about your relationship with your sister, but I think it's pretty common to be frustrated with siblings. Is there any way you could talk to her about how you feel? Or does she not listen? If she is only causing you frustration, it's got to be hard to have her helping you. And if you really don't want her help, you should be able to refuse it.

Nooo, don't do that! I'm sorry your grandmother stressed you out, by assuming you are incapable of handling your own business. You have knowledgeable people you can go to if you need help, and your family should respect that.

I don't talk to my relatives at all, but used to have nosey in-laws who drove me nuts... It's definitely annoying!

I have people that are helping me. It was mostly my sister causing me so much stress.

I don't know what the OP is talking about in full, but most doctors don't really give two s**ts about anybody's health issues. I've never gone back to my GP since the dickhead doc shafted me with the pigs. They wanted to arrest me ages ago because I ran off and I went there to get a form, then they showed up because he did a dirty on me. He should have been beaten to within an inch of breathing.

Truth be told, I never liked this Dr. Brown character anyway. He is sarcastic and a prick. Neurotypicals paid by the government are typically just a***holes. He used to prescribe painkillers for my father's back trouble. Seriously!

I wonder if it's because of your grandmother's age? She's probably pretty old to be your grandmother! Sometimes, people who are advanced in age are impatient.

My grandmother was 89 when she died, and I was 32.

At least it isn't RA, with a case of fibromyalgia, and Sjogren's disease.

I'm sorry you are feeling so stressed out Kitty. I have people in my family like your sister who are cause me toxic levels of stress like my father. I too wish that I could live a normal life and be independent, but I don't see that happening anytime soon, so I know how that feels like. Seek help from those who you trust and are comfortable working with.
