I have a younger sister who essentially has never had to work for anything in her life. She’s going to an extremely expensive university and does not have a job because my mom sends her money. All she does with her life is go to her classes (which are all music classes since she is a vocal performance major, not the it really matters) and hang out with her friends. 

I on the other hand have not been as lucky. I have a multitude of mental illnesses such as bipolar disorder and borderline personality disorder while also having crohn’s disease. I attend a community college while also working full time to keep myself afloat. I never really have time to relax as my entire life is split between school and work. 

Anyways, today my sister, who is back at my mom and I’s house for the holidays, made a comment about how much it sucks that I’m going to a community college instead of being able to enjoy the college experience. She said this in a very condescending way and I snapped. I yelled at her about how she’s extremely entitled and has always had everything handed to her on a silver platter and that not everyone is as lucky as her. I told her that she needed to get over her superiority complex and to enjoy her time now before the real world gives her an extremely harsh awakening. 

My mother yelled at me for my response and while I’m not one to snap at people, but I don’t really feel guilty for what I said. I guess I was just wondering if i was justified or if me snapping at her was me just being an asshole. 

I apologize for any formatting as I’m on mobile!
