I (27F) told my parent that I felt like cancelling my therapy session today. Not opting out of therapy entirely, just today. I said because I was constipated and it was beautiful out. Not that that really makes any sense but I always have 1,000 wheels turning. Anyway my parent puts a sad emoji in response and I say “here we go again.” They say oh that’s nice. I said, “I honestly don’t even have to tell you when I’m cancelling I pay for every session.” They said you can do whatever you want but I can have an opinion, right? I say, “what’s your opinion?” They say that you get annoyed whenever I voice my opinion and I said, “no your thoughts on why I want to cancel.” They say “of course you do whatever you want. But I’m also allowed to say what I think, right.” And idk how to explain it. This may seem small but anytime an “opinion” is given it feels unwarranted or I’m expecting backlash, hence why I gave an excuse in the first place. Please help
