generally, when I tell my family even the most superficial emotions I feel they're like "huh ?" or "ok"

Same and I kind of noticed I turned out just the same. I have no idea how to react when someone comes to me with their emotional problems. I must appear as if they talked to a stone.

@CrazyMusicLover I'm sorry

@wackidywack It's also strange to watch my mother getting more emotional as she's getting older because the tables have turned in a way. At some point I wished more emotional support when I needed it and was not understood and was made to feel like I overreacted. Now I get the impression some emotions I've always known are new to her and so it's a bit hard to empathize and not see it as overreacting, therefore refrain from downplaying. It's all strange. At this point I would say I'd rather be one losing shit than being around someone else going through that.
