The referral service is free of charge. If you have no insurance or are underinsured, we will refer you to your state office, which is responsible for state-funded treatment programs. In addition, we can often refer you to facilities that charge on a sliding fee scale or accept Medicare or Medicaid. If you have health insurance, you are encouraged to contact your insurer for a list of participating health care providers and facilities.

The service is confidential. We will not ask you for any personal information. We may ask for your zip code or other pertinent geographic information in order to track calls being routed to other offices or to accurately identify the local resources appropriate to your needs.

No, we do not provide counseling. Trained information specialists answer calls, transfer callers to state services or other appropriate intake centers in their states, and connect them with local assistance and support.

It seems to me that you yourself are not completely sure that all your worldview is initially correct. That is, yes, you have principles that you adhere to, some views on life, your ideals ... But they are shaken after meeting other people whose views do not correspond to yours ... You begin to doubt yourself, that how you live... Doesn't this mean that you yourself consider other people's lifestyle more acceptable to you... And your subconscious literally yells about it?)) correctness"... But in fact, it is your correctness that you are aware of, but do not want to accept, is to blame for everything. You want to live like them. But for some reason you can't... Reconsider your views, try on their life... Suddenly this is what you need...

Why hang out with people who trample you down with dirt, even if they are relatives. Apparently, it is necessary to limit communication, maybe it will reach them. And if it doesn’t come, communicate with other relatives. I do so, I also have such relatives.

    Or: yes, you are unlikely to succeed. I answer: I always succeed if I want to.
    Or: Oh, this dress makes you look fat. I answer: nothing can spoil beauty)))
    Or: yes, poor thing, I feel sorry for you. I answer: but I feel sorry for you)))

    And before that I agreed with everyone, allowed me to wipe my feet on myself.

    And now let me just try to offend, I'll break it)))

    I have the same as the author. I only learned to defend myself after 30 years. And now if I feel that they are trying to underestimate my self-esteem, I specifically give a strong rebuff. Well, let's say my sister can hint: oh, yes, something always happens to you, you are such a klutz. I answer: nothing ever happens to me, because I have a head on my shoulders. Or: yes, you are unlikely to succeed. I answer: I always succeed if I want to. Or: Oh, this dress makes you look fat. I answer: nothing will spoil the beauty))) Or: yes, poor thing, I feel sorry for you. I answer: but I feel sorry for you))) And before that, I agreed with everyone, allowed me to wipe my feet on myself. 9April 13, 2016

    I am lost when I am lost, I don’t know what to say. Then I tell my parents that I will not come again when their sister is with them, to which they answer me - she is your sister, you should contact her

    What do you mean must??? Do you need such communication with people who like you to humiliate you?

    #20

    Author

    That should because it is a relative

    #21

    Nyusha

    A Do you have people who support you and your lifestyle? Maybe communicate with them more often than with such "relatives"?

    How much do you know about their life? Everyone has their own dark and light side. But one must be able to hide this dark part as much as possible. So what's the point of feeling bad? You don’t know how they achieve their achievements and how they pay for it. For example, a successful careerist cries into her pillow at night from loneliness, and the beloved wife of an oligarch is treated for her husband’s venereal gifts. The media personality suffers from misanthropy. And many, many other examples. Get busy with your life, build it in such a way that you are not ashamed and your conscience is not tormented. In the end, a clear conscience and pride in one's morality is the only thing that cannot be lost, that will not depreciate and will ease any difficulties.

    We see a sister several times a year, for parents for large holidays. I can't refuse my parents. And my sister can start humiliating me right at the table, openly or veiled. Or her friend. For example, ask why we don’t go anywhere on vacation because there is no money? Or they say that they constantly travel somewhere, they both do not work and they have no children. And I, with a child, begin to say that I have no time, in response - what are you doing so interestingly. And immediately I feel like I'm inferior

    ask why this "friend" doesn't call his sister in marriage. Is it because he doesn't want to spend the rest of his life with her?

    And do you know a lot about their lives? Everyone has their own dark and light side. But one must be able to hide this dark part as much as possible. So what's the point of feeling bad? You do not know how they achieve their achievements and how they pay for it.
    For example, a successful careerist cries into her pillow at night because of loneliness, and the beloved wife of an oligarch is being treated for her husband's venereal gifts. The media personality suffers from misanthropy. And many, many other examples.
    Go about your life, build it in such a way that you are not ashamed and your conscience is not tormented. In the end, a clear conscience and pride in one's morality is the only thing that cannot be lost, that will not depreciate and will ease any difficulties.
