I want to get better, but nothing I try seems to work. I've spent most of my life trying to sort myself out one way or another but, well, the result is always the same. My parents' attitude was that everything could be solved by "putting that face straight", can't remember either of them ever showing me any affection. I have a wife, daughter and stepson who all appear quite happy to take but never give anything back. And I know I'm stupid for putting up with it and being told that continually doesn't help. I genuinely feel like it's time to give up.
