Life Inside Panic

I just got home from a day with my family and I was reminded of how other peoples tension can cause a negative emotional response. I had to take 2 Xanax just to deal with my brother’s typical crap.
~Little backstory~
My 16 yr old sister S recently moved in with me due to severe personality conflicts between my mother and S. Things were getting so bad that they could barely be in the same room without exploding. This move has been beneficial to all in my opinion. Our mother seems less stressed, S is much happier, and I have benefited greatly by having to take care of myself so I can take care of someone else. The one person that has taken this hard is our dad; he is really close with S and misses her terribly.
~Back to today~
So, everyone is having a nice time and my brother picks a fight about why I suddenly am showing such an interest in S. Maybe it’s just me but I feel it’s normal to be there for your family when they need you no matter what has happened in the past. I love everyone of them and would do anything within my power for them (even my asshole brother). It never fails that you can have a perfect family get together and that one jerk relative can cap it off on a bad note.
At any rate, other than my brother’s tantrum, the day was really nice. Everyone got what they asked for and I had said I wanted nothing but still got some very nice things. I am actually sitting here typing this in my new Snuggie. lol These things really are warm and comfy. Now that things are starting to get on a more regular schedule with S being here I will be making the effort, that I keep promising, to write daily. As for now, gonna curl up in my snuggie and watch a movie with my little sis, who’s curled up in her snuggie (mom went snuggie crazy this year), and just relax till I doze off for a couple hours. Have to be at the store by 6 to hit after Christmas sales.
