I have no idea why they treat me like this.

I’ve got a service dog. She does deep pressure therapy and is my lifeline. My parents host a family event and a few years back my grandma adopted my little brother who’s petrified of dogs. Now, when he comes, my people board their dog for him. But when I ask to attend I get told no. All because my little brother can’t handle my dog.

I’ve begged nicely, offered fixes, even reminded them my dog’s so well-behaved (we eat out with them regularly, they see her work!). I said I’m his daughter, I should be a priority. He still wouldn’t budge. Finally, I told them that if you won’t put the kid you chose to have over some lady Grandma adopted, you never should’ve had kids. Then I hung up.

I just wanna see family on holidays, and I can’t go without my dog. Like, if you don’t love me, why did you even give birth to me?

make your own family with friends, coworkers, etc that do not have family close that love you and accept you for you. I would also go no contact with "family".

Why I never “treat” myself
I don’t like to use the idea of treat days or treat items because then I have a connotation that I need to earn these items and if I don’t reach that goal to earn it then I feel like a failure. Instead I like to sprinkle in these “treat” items into daily occurrences. With this I also redefined
