Ok listen... I eavesdrop a lot in my mum’s conversations with my family from North Africa because I’m horrible at talking and am an awkward shit AND I actually get to know wtf is happening over there with all the war.
Things just seem to get worse for them. First my grandad dies in October. My family starts having arguments all the time. Then I think a few weeks ago one of the places I think my auntie stayed at or her house (idk this is all eavesdrop) got trashed by whatever the fuck is causing the war. Her house was just... horrible afterwards. Not as bad as everyone else in the country, but bad enough. And then now my aunties are all arguing on what’s going on with my aunt’s husband. They said that he went to the hospital a nihilism times to see if there’s something wrong with his health, but he’s perfectly well and healthy. And this is where it gets frustrating for me. The guys clearly has some mental issues and according to what my mum said, it was ever since my grandad died. And it’s so confusing, cause I feel like everyone is depressed over there especially my grandma. Idk, but guess what. Rather than actually checking if there may be something going on in his head, they seem to all think it’s because he might not be doing enough with the whole “religious” acts. And the thing is, Yh ok u wanna make sure u follow god and stuff, but u can’t turn everything into something to do with religion. U have to take into consideration that yes, he probably might have a few issues, and I’ll bet u anything more than half my cousins probably do. Even me, but it’s less for me cuz I still can’t imagine my grandad actually not being here, and then they also have to deal with being locked up in their houses right on dangers way with a chance of getting bombed any second. How can someone NOT have an issue with all that piled, then include personal issues within the person’s mind. So yh I felt like ranting...
