Bright... I'm sorry it's got you feeling out of sorts. It's unfortunate that Hesse friends are so opinionated about things. They may be trying to help, but it doesn't seem to be working.
It's funny how you can really see true colors of people in a time of need. I'm not saying they are bad, but if you don't feel supported, you may not want to hang with them like that.
I hope you have a good week back at home and you are able to settle in.
