on random occasions if they ARE available, they expect me to drop everything and perform Happy To See Them on command, without warning or pre-scheduling or, hah, consent.

Word.

I have so much free time (read: am chronically ill and therefore my time doesn't count, because it isn't paid work)

Hella word.

My mom, who is extroverted and gregarious and divorced and lonely and completely oblivious to boundaries, gets personally offended if I don't ... want to spend time with her with no warning, or want to hear all about the minutiae of her daily life, or don't respond immediately to texts or calls. I am introverted, disabled, and pretty much peopled out just dealing with caregivers, but I don't have a job and don't have kids so ~clearly~ I must be available, right?
