I have been working in a family business for ten ...

I have been working in a family business for ten years. It has become increasingly harder to work here and keep my family life seperate. I work for my parents. I am always anxious and I am asked the whole time to keep something from the other. Although I am 28, they still treat me as if I am a child and I should just follow orders and not ask questions. I have an outgoing personality but my mother is very submissive towards my father. She would rather not have conflict than to fight or argue an issue out. I would rather talk it out and get it over with. Because of this, there are so many issues that are not being addressed. I am told not to get mad and be the better person all the time even if I am right about something. I am having trouble sleeping, I don't know why but I am picking up weight even though I eat healthily. I am constantly on the defensive. It is now at the point where it is affecting my personal life in that I take it out on my kids and husband. Any advice is much appreciated.

Wud'nt it beta for you to addressed this to your parents privately to see whether they are concerned about your personal issues,as you are on your stage to prepare for independently future who must be face by you alone...It wud be better to let them know about it.Just tell them to be spoon feed by parents is unhealthy for long term life movement,co'z at the end you mon't be able to do & know how to coperate on your own during the up & down stages of life....

Bottom line you have live your own life and you have to be happy! To be honest people would kill to even have a relationship with their parents let alone have a job and stable income. Years ago our ancestors did it and somehow managed. Be thankful and learn how to address the important issues and respect the private ones the most important thing is if it is wrong what they want you to keep private say hey "don’t tell me I don’t want to know”.  When it is time to go home leave it all at work till the next day. Tell your parents unless it is an emergency when you leave don’t call. Tell them you love them and want to respect them but boundaries must be set by everyone and respected at all cost. GOOD LUCK!!

You need to move out a.S.A.P and get out of the family business and get on with your life. Do it now! You will never regret it. Moving out of town is even better. You only have one life, do you want to be treated like this forever? No you dont so get going!!! Good luck.

Bottom line think about your health. If you are dead you can't be there for your kids. I lasted ten years in and out of hospitals pumped with morphine to calm down. You need to get out and focus on you and your family. You mental and physical status is more important than any job. Don't think all will come to you when parents go not always true trust me. I lost wife kids and job .I still get to see one of my kids every other week. Have started over two times at 40 and unemployed again.Think of you and your family.Not the family you came from the one you created is most important.Also family is most important be careful how you handle leaving there.They will replace you and no person will put up with what you are. Good luck and God Bless....

RUN, don't walk to your nearest employment service and get a job that doesn't suck the life out of you. You only get to go around once, make the most of it and enjoy life.

Good luck to you and a long and happy lifetime.
