Why do I feel sad all the time?
I just feel sad all the time and I don't like anyone in my family. I feel like they're trying to control me and won't let me grow.

<p>Understandably the idea of someone who tries to control you, is good reason to feel sad.</p><p>Your feelings sound like they are very strong and meaningful in your life.<br></p><p><br></p><p>Keep in mind that your feelings about others has more to do with one's own self-view than with what the other person is actually doing.</p><p>Unless the people in your family are actually interrupting and impeding your life in practical ways or by intimidation or other verbal ways to inhibit you, then there is a great chance your feelings of being controlled by other family members has more to do with your fears to be who you are than with any family members' actions.</p><p><br></p>
