Today, my aunt vented her anger on us for no reason, and her words really cut like a knife. I always pray that someday I'll have a home that I can call my own, where I can lay my head and heart. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my wife lost her patience with her aunt but because she can't say anything to her, she takes it out on me. Then she also blames everything on me, in that I didn't do enough to make it stop. I went against my family and relatives to be with this woman, but I get treated as a dog. FML
Today, I visited my Aunt in hospital. Another patient got jealous, so she threw a tantrum. She threw things at us, pulled her drip out, threw herself to the floor, screamed, pounded the floor with her fists and pissed herself. My aunt is still waiting for a new room, and the staff blame me. FML
Today, I moved back home because I got laid off and could no longer afford my apartment. I decided to take a nap and when I woke up I overheard my Mom telling my Aunt that she used to be so proud of me and wonders when I became such a loser. Burn. FML
Today, my mother snapped and took her frustrations out on me. Whenever she has a problem with other family members, it falls on me because she can't show them her true face to them. And she wonders why I hide away all the time… FML
Today, my aunt drove to my house and screamed at me for skateboarding in her driveway and denting her car. She then ransacked my room for said skateboard so she could break it in half. My aunt lives 4 hours away. I don't own a skateboard. FML
Today, after my cousin recently died, my aunt basically told me that I shouldn't be sad, because we fought. FML
Today, my crazy drug-addict mother kicked me out of the house after siding with my crazy, drug-addict aunt, who'd just threatened to slit my throat. FML
Today, my aunt, whom I live with, told me she is going to move out and demanded her half of the rent back, as she only spent two days a week there. When I told her that's not how rent works, she called my mom to tell her what a failure she had raised. Her own sons are unemployed drug addicts. FML
Today, I got into a fight with my mom, and stormed out of the house. I walked two blocks before realizing that I have no place to go, and no friends to vent to. FML
Today, I had a fight with my grandma again with whom I've been living for four years due to college hostel being below par. She blamed me for destroying her kitchen equipment by extensively cooking, especially at night. I've never placed a foot inside her kitchen since the beginning. FML

Keep being positive! I really hope you have someone to talk to who is supportive. Maybe a teacher or a counselor? You will get that home of your own if you keep pushing and working hard. Until then hang on and don't let her ruin your goals.

Unfortunately not everyone is good with stress or kids or just life in general. Some people lash out at the ones around them even if those people are not responsible for what is upsetting them. And sometimes people fester on their daily irritations until it builds up and they verbally explode with all the unkind and cutting words they have stored up in their mind… I assume you are living with or staying with your Aunt for now out of necessity. Make a realistic plan as to how you are to earn a living and have your own place to live. That may be a long term plan if education or training are involved to get the kind of job you need or it could be a shorter path than that if you are already an adult… Remember, you are a human being and deserving of love and respect. How the people act around you now does not mean life is always going to be this way. Make a plan and work towards your goals. Not only will that eventually get you to your goals, in the present you will feel like you are doing something important and that will give you some sense of relief now.

Houses are expensive. Baseball bats are much cheaper. You probably don't have to whack her with it -- just let her know you're not going to receive her rants.

It's more like - reason was not given, but sometimes definitely made a person that angry. So it's not you, most def
