Sometimes we do people wrong because we don't know how to do right by somebody. Because doing right by people takes practice, like everything does. What would I do in your situation? To get out of the emotional rut? I'd start volunteering at school. Try helping more around the house. Like clean the garage for Dad. Do the gardening for mom. And don't backtalk anyone. Try letting other people have the last word. Then you'll see your life improve. Because all in all, we have to pick our own battles. That's how we succeed.
