I'm going to add more because I love exploring this type of psychological stuff, in part because I am in a constant battle with my own emotions. Clinical depression, extreme social anxiety, rage issues etc.

Talking about this stuff and thinking about it can cause you to assess yourself better. Most people don't want to think about it too much. It is too painful for some people I think.

You criticizing your parents is pointing out their flaws and forcing them to think about their own miserable situation. That is the more likely reason that your father insults you, because he probably takes what you said as an insult to him. It is a slight fight or flight response due to his own fears.

Also, if your father tells you he doesn't want to talk about something and you keep harping on him, he is going to get annoyed and feel threatened. I think most of use can sympathize with this.

I am not a psychiatrist btw, so take what I say with a grain of salt. I have read quite a bit about psychology and some is just common sense, but I am not an expert by any means.

Yeah I agree about him taking it as an insult.. I think its some kind of knee jerk reaction. He does continously do it though...so instead of being an asshole that nobody wants to be around...he should do some self reflection and work on himself. I'm not perfect at all but at least I try to fix things. Its selfish to just act whatever way you want...not caring about the consequences to your health or to others and then bitch(and refuse to think about it) when someone points it out that you should change. I don't harp on things, I do come from a place of concern.

You have to realize that some people have reached a point of no return in their mind. They no longer care. There is a point where you have to give up or you will just cause yourself to become more miserable. You got to let go in some cases.

You also have to realize that everyone isn't the same. Some people are stronger than other people. There are people who have run out of fucks to give. I struggle with this every day. I have become borderline indifferent to what happens to me and I am trying to hang on tightly to caring about what happens to other people. I say that, because if that goes away then I have nothing left to live for. When you are existing just for the sake of existing then what is even the point?

Harping on things can come from a place of concern. Harping on something just means that you keep bringing it up. If that isn't what you are doing then I take that back. You could be doing it and not even realizing that you are coming off a certain way. Part of everyone's problems is that it is very difficult to see ourselves from the perspective of other people. Self-awareness has a limit.

People have to want to change. You can only do so much.
