What you may do is spend a ton of time outside of the house. Don't try, just do it. Get busy GAL, have some fun. Be home to eat and to sleep for the most part.
As to what CanadianKid is saying. Some people are going to treat you poorly no matter what you communicate. The choice is for them to be gone, or you to be gone - or one or both tolerate it.
The treatment does get worse over time, because they gain confidence in it.
