Dress Shopping

I went out dress shopping with my mom, grandma, younger sister, and soon-to-be stepdad today. It was to get dresses for my mom's 2nd marriage. My grandma constantly comments on clothes that I'm thinking about buying or that I try on. She always thinks they're too short or show too much skin, especially if it's one with a hole in the back. I tried out five different dresses, finally ending up with one I really like. But while I was in the dressing room, changing back into my clothes, I could hear them murmuring, and my grandma commenting on the dresses. My mind decided that they must all be talking about the dresses I'd tried on and how they made me look. I thought I was being bullied by my own family, and that seriously hurt me. I decided to go shopping on my own to find something so that I could have time to cool down and relax. My mom followed me and ended up pulling the dress I was wearing so she could catch up to me. She kept wanting to talk, but she needed to leave me alone. Not because I was angry. Because I needed time to myself to calm down. Just a note for everyone, talking to someone while they're upset is not a good idea. You need to wait a little while so everyone can calm down. Anyway, I still haven't told her about why I was upset and why I left. I think my reaction has to do with my depression, and the fact that I was bullied as a kid. I didn't realize that I'd been bullied until I became a teenager though, so there wasn't anything I could do. I don't know..... I just know it made my mood worse.

Same Sex Marriage Legal in Mexico

Mexico has approved same-sex marriage

Mexico's constitution has made it legal for people of the same sex to get married! It's been legal in Canada. Now it's legal in the USA and Mexico!

Quiet and Privacy

Would it really be too much to ask to have a moment where I don't have to listen to anyone? Where no one is talking and I can just enjoy what I want to watch or listen to?

And there's something else that I feel I need to address. A lot of parents will demand to have every account username and password, as well as passwords for any devices. I understand that many do it to protect their children. But privacy is a basic human need. Not only that, but it can also set off people's anxiety or other mental conditions even if there isn't anything they're hiding there. I'm not hiding anything on my phone, yet I still don't want people looking through it. It's a matter of privacy and feeling like there's something that is mine and mine alone, and that I control.
