I really wish my father would stop being a narcissist. He thinks I told him to stop talking when i literally was telling my older brother to stop making comments because I know it would make my dad mad. He said in the jerkiest tone ever “I’LL SPEAK WHEN I WANT TO SPEAK” and rolled his eyes so hard and turned away from me. Y’all this conversation was just about me trying to get a job. He disagreed and said no because it’s the same place my older brother works and he thinks I’m encroaching since I’m also like best friends with his gf. The entire thing escalated and my mom started yelling and my dad yelled at my brother to go to his room for legit no reason. I was just trying to talk civilly with my father but NOO we can’t have that now can we?! This was yesterday and now he is literally acting like nothing happened but still kind of acting passive aggressively to me and my mom. BUT HE IS COMPLETELY FINE WITH BOTH OF MY BROTHERS!! LIKE WTF BRO.

I'm sorry you're dealing with this, it reminds me so much of my father. He once said that my sisters & I were all disappointments except my brother. He would get angry if we seemed to be happy because I don't think he wanted anyone to be happier than he was. Looking back I think he was bipolar & your father sounds like he has something going on too. Try to find your "family" where you can & know that you're worth more than he gives you credit. Good luck with the job! It's easier for me to look back since he died 30 years ago. Also, it's not your job to make him happy, you need to take care of yourself & don't let him ruin your happiness & life. I think we're all born wanting to please our parents & sometimes we need to realize that isn't always possible. Good luck!

Backstory: I found out over 6monts ago that my ex(we broke up over 2 years ago) had cheated on me with his ex before me. The "other" woman told me to get revenge on my ex in some way .I didn't even get mad as it was ancient history by then to me and told the woman that im not interested in talking about it with her or anybody and not to bother me anymore. . Fast forward to today! I work in a store in a mall and have a good view of the surrounding area. Almost an hour ago I saw the woman standing ferly far away in a shadowy area staring at me for about 15min(creepy af i know). Then she comes in the store to tell me how I hurt her felling's when i told her i didn't want to talk to her or want her to contact me. And apparently i should apologize to her. I calmly in my customer service voice and manner as she was any random customer told her that i can not talk about this subject at work nor do i want to outside of work and just stared at her blankly until she left. What the HeII is wrong with people and why would she still be thinking about this

I'm sorry my rant goes a different direction. I'm so infuriated by the medical system. My oncologist calls in my Rx's & half the time the pharmacy is out. This happened with my cancer meds & I had to wait 2wks, I'm stage 4 mBC in my bones. In the last year they have been out of 4 different pain meds. They won't accept a new Rx until the day it runs out, I tried 2 days early one time & they didn't fill it "because it was too soon." For the last 2 months they have told my Dr. that they had something else in stock that was comparable. This meant that my Dr had to call me to get my approval to change the drug, then they canceled the original Rx & sent a new one, only to be told by the same pharmacy that they didn't have that drug either. The only solution I have is to skip doses so that I can stretch my 30 day Rx out to 37 days or more. This means that my pain is not being controlled to a level where I can sleep at night for 2-3wks out of each month. I can't go to a different pharmacy because my insurance only pays for CVS because they have some business connection with them. I remember when your medical care was determined by the doctor looking you in the eye, not some faceless business just looking out for their stock holders. Even my oncologist hates the way things are because he's trying to help me with his hands tied. Wish I paid more attention in chemistry.

Edit: I realized that my post makes it sound like I take 4 different pain meds. I only have one. Each time CVS is out of one my Dr tries a different one. So far they've been out of Celebrex, an NSAID that doesn't upset my stomach, Tramadol, Norco & Percocet. I guess if you count the one they said they had so my Dr could jump through hoops like a circus poodle, that makes 5 different pain meds that they have been out of. It's like an airport saying they don't have any planes & they don't know when to expect one. FYI: According to the CDC, in 2020 there were 602,350 deaths from cancer. For the same year, 91,799 people died from overdose. I'm sorry that many people took their own lives, but I don't like being punished for their decisions. I want my quality of life back!
