What to do when I "hate" my family

So you have a fight with your mum/dad or your sis/bro
You're so freakin annoyed, you feel like punching ur bro in the face.
You feel like exploding, You can't stand them anymore
You wanna move out of the house.
You don't wanna think of them as family anymore

But HEY !!
It will pass !! Trust me, it will.
Get a diversion, cool off, calm down
Do something positive, Exercise or Go take a walk, whatever
Before you know it, you forgot the reason you fought with them in the first place.
Before you even realize it, you start talking to them again and start laughing about everything again.
Just think about the warm fuzzy feeling you get when you spend good times with them, don't you wanna have that instead of feeling miserable ?
Think about how protected and safe you are when they got your back.
So why choose to feel miserable ?

There's no "I win" if you give them the silent treatment
There's no "I lose" if you start talking to them first.
You guys need each other, even though sometimes you don't admit it, You do need them.
They're Family
It's all that matters
You fight with them, you argue with them
but you'll always be there for each other no matter what
They'll always be there for you.

Here,
Just imagine if it's the end of the world.
You only have 10 minutes before everything comes to an end.
You know what....
You won't even think of all the annoying stuff that they did
You'll see only good things in them
You forgive all,
You'd wanna spend the last minutes with them.
You'll feel warm and light inside
You'll want more time to spend time with them

and Why wait till it's too late ?
You have them now right in front of you
It's your choice

What to do when I am upset

First of all
That feeling won't stay forever.
I know you're upset now, but just know you're not gonna feel upset or angry forever.
That's the first thing to remember.

Then, this is what works for me
I go to my room to cool off
Watch some good TV or a movie, comedy perhaps.
accompanied with some good food
(just don't make snacking as a solution for your problem)
Eat Fruits instead ;p
After 30 mins or so,
I'm all better.
Really, no matter how upset/angry I felt earlier, I'm now calm and happier.

Give it a few more hours and I start to think straight
and I see how unnecessary it was to be upset in the first place.
I learn if I could just let it go, I didn't have to feel upset at all.
I could just let go and move on and be happy.
