Am I a negative person?

I'm constantly being told that I am by a family member and I don't understand what he wants from me it's ridiculous he basically brings the worst out of me and convinces me that everything is wrong with me and my behavior even when something is none of his business.

Some people like to feel superior, he sounds like someone who has no idea what it's like to be you and he's chipping away at you in an effort to feel better about his own inadequacies.

Tell him to fork off and point out he has no concept of what it's like to be you.
@AntisocialTroll Exactly he is constantly watching me to catch every tiny mistake I do even if it's something he doesn't like and I am always the problem.

@PiecingBabyFaceTogether One of the many things others just don't understand is how the breathing problems affect your mood, I know myself that when my breathing is bad I'm not "just! miserable and depressed by it, it has an effect on my brain and I get a very large sense of doom and doubt my ability to survive much longer, when my breathing is better I just don't have that no matter how unwell I am.

It makes sense when you think about it, the lack of oxygen physically affects your brain and no amount of "positivity" or other shite can change that, only thing that helps is sorting the cause and increasing your oxygen levels which as we both know is often a slog through them trying different meds until they get it right for you.

I don't think you are a negative person at all I think you are incredibly positive but like me when you can't breathe as well it affects your brain similarly.

Others have absolutely no concept of what it's actually like, lucky them lol but breathing is such a simple automatic thing for most that it's not really their fault if they don't get it but that doesn't give him the right to chip away at you.

Tell him to fork off...
