Does anyone else feel completely misunderstood?

I feel like my entire life everything I’ve ever tried to say or explain to others that wasn’t simple (and even sometimes then) I am taken the wrong way, and get attacked. I feel like the things I want are considered unnecessary or optional. I feel like I just exist to provide something for those around me. Which I wouldn’t mind doing, if I felt it had a pay off in the end. Like love, respect, safety, security. Is that so wrong?
