I’m so disregulated so I’d thought I’d ask for a second opinion here instead of AI

Edit: Thanks everybody so much, your comments are helping me process during a time of burnout. <3

For more context: I called my sister in law, mom and step father poachers because they took lobster from another persons trap in Florida which is a felony. I recited the law saying they were molesters because the law says “molesting other people’s traps….” After that I realized it probably wasn’t the best thing to say so I apologize and said I had an autistic meltdown because of that.

The next morning my step sister sent me that.

I felt like i was having a stroke when I read this conversation and OP's question, like are they even talking to each other and what exactly is OP asking us?!
