[quote=Anonymous](1) decide how much time with them you really can take. 5 days? a week? only go for that (2) Plan mini-escapes for yourself. run to do errands. go for a walk on the beach. get up early and go for a jog. If a parent asks to join, say you need alone time. If they complain that you are being selfish, just say, "that's how I am, I just need time alone to recharge to feel happy when I am with people." (3) Do you set boundaries? What do you say when you are criticized for the way you dress or the things you do? Remember when you deal with your family that you are in fact an adult now. You are not a little child anymore. You can treat your family the way you treat other adults. They can adapt to this. They won't break. [/quote]
