People around me don't care about reading or writing. Some would even make 'odd' remarks and it also shows in their expression when they know that I write. Not sure they are disgusted, or they are afraid that I'll write about them.

If you grew up, like me, not a part of a creative family it's a fight to do what you like and therefore are good at.
Should we write for those around us, others or us? I write for me. I don't like to write (or say) what others like to read/hear. Both would feel like hypocrisy to me and take the joy away.
Should we be always be understood? Some words, lines need time to sink, others need time to reach the right persons.
Most likely it's the fear you speak out, and even without calling names 'everyone' knows you wrote about them. So be it. They are the ones looking in the mirror you hold, even though it's not in front of their faces.
Never underestimate the power of words or feelings.
There's a lot of art created (texts and paintings) in the medical world and so is among prisoners. There's a very good reason for that (and it 'cures' and steers into positivity better than pills and years of therapy can do without changing people into drugs zombies and taking their identity).
'Odd' remarks proves how uncomfortable they feel (or is it lack of creativity and intelligence mixed with guilt).
A creative Saturday, don't give up on writing.

I guess there's always a point where one doesn't get enough support from non-creative family, or perhaps can't live up to the name of their creative family background.
I write for myself, which is why it's so difficult for me to take on writing jobs where I really can't squeeze out anything to meet the requirement.
One can see this pattern in me: I would join contests without even knowing what the prize was, simply because I felt I could write something for it. Each time I wrote with the sole intention of winning something, it never happened for me, desperate writing for prize. LOL
I only realized how much writing helped me to feel better when my therapist asked really deep questions about why I write and my feelings. It helps to articulate emotions and to put words to unspoken things that have happened.
As for those unwarranted reactions from certain people, there are so many reasons—whatever it is, they shouldn’t troll me like that. Not nice.
You can stop the trolling. Most trolls are very bad in receiving the same treatment.
You can write a column. About what keeps your mind busy. From past, news, shopping, recioes,
vomiting cats ... these are the things many will recognise. A bit sarcasm, always good for a laugh.
They say that if you aren't lucky with gaming/gambling you are with love, if you ask me both don't work for me 🤣
I can never clapback at those trolls. My response would only arrive after a long time. 😓😓😓
A column would be nice. Hopefully I can be consistent in that.
The luck thing is a hoax. Never work either way for me 😖😖😖
That is something you can practise. Trust me I did and today it works.
It will take me a long time to master it
Or you come to a point you have no choice. You can also protect yourself by leaving.
I chose to ignore those trolls but somehow it emboldened them thinking they can treat me like a doormat. Horrible people
