Is it normal to hate your grown family

Is it normal to hate your family once you are grown??? I am the 5th youngest of 6 girls. Right now at this point in time, I am not speaking to any of them. I have issues, but compared to some of theirs, its not as bad. Yet they are treating me like I have the plague. They continue to talk to each other like buddies, and will leave me out of conversations. Even the oldest sister, who had 6 kids by 6 different guys and drank/did drugs while pregnant gets more consideration than I do. I have a gambling problem, but so far have kept it in my immediate family, meaning my husband and kids. Yea I did have to ask others (or my husband did) for some help earlier in the summer, but you would have thought that I asked them for a kidney or their first born. Anyway, I am looking for a new substitute family to have a relationship with. Its pretty lonely not having family or friends to talk to. Anyway, thats my story.

    Do not feel bad, I do not talk to my family either, my stupid family is too negative for me so I do not go around them.

  • These toxic relationships - I think you do have to back away, and not look at them for having rhyme & reason. You are right to focus on your own issues, your own family & to make your own network of friends in my opinion.

    Sounds like my disgusting family. They are all liars, convicted criminals, have had their children taken away and given back by child protection, are drug addicts and alcoholics. I moved a thousand miles away to get away from them and started a new life and now they kidnapped one of my daughters and did it "legally" from a judge friend of my grandmothers. And they say I am the problem. Oh I am sorry, I guess furthering your education, working hard and raising your kids to not be disgusting child molesting drug addicts makes me wrong. I cannot stand people who act like something is wrong with you to cover up their own disgusting selves. It's bad enough to have been terrorized by them my entire life but it's just inhumane that they can still do it and get away with it and I am 32 years old and live on the opposite side of the country from them. I guess maybe I should have been a prostitute or drug addict then they wouldn't mess with me.....Whatever!
