so, the past few years i've become very sarcastic. its usually not meant to be taken as rude or offensive, and more-so just light-hearted teasing. but lately ive started to realize its not really that funny, and just seems rude most of the time. i used to defend it a lot, but i realized it definitely crosses a line when its overdone.
i do think my mom can get wayyyyy too riled up over it though, like turning things into a screaming argument. but i do acknowledge my part in triggering that, and im aware she isnt a very emotionally aware person so its more mature to work on my part rather than just blame her reaction 100% and keep doing it
part of the time that i do it im just being a smart ass on purpose too lmfao. but i do wanna change, i wanna make my life more stress free and repair my relationship with my mom after fighting so much since i was younger up until lately.
the main issue is that i just automatically do it, or i get really annoyed and it just comes out. partially because i get really stressed out if i hold my words in, and also probably has to do with not controlling my emotions well and failing to consider her feelings or reaction beforehand.
so i guess stopping and redirecting my responses is the answer? how do you go along doing this without blurting something out without thinking?
also changing my mindset could be the answer too, if i change how i think about my mom and just everything in general would i start just automatically being more respectful especially with my responses?
