[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It would be best for your well being to not live with your overbearing and critical parents. My sister was self sufficient living in a shared apartment. She then made an ill-fated choice to move into our mother’s house. Her self-esteem seemed to chip away and she lost the drive to stand on her own.[/quote]

Did your sister ever find her way again?[/quote]
After about 20 years, she had enough and moved to a cohousing community. This was good for her: it’s affordable and a social atmosphere filled with open-minded accepting people. Come to think of it, OP might want to look into these (do a search for “cohousing directory”).

I had a rough go at finding my tribe and felt like there was something wrong with me until long after college when—in pursuing my interests—I took a literature class from a local college and met others who saw me. Think it’s just finally meeting someone who sees you for the first time, that makes you feel right in the world.

It helps to lose everything you were taught to believe: like ranking schools and people and the rat race can be dehumanizing and make you lose yourself and miss seeing amazing people and things around you.[/quote]
