I need word help-- something similar in meaning to slighted or "put off"/dismissed. Basically when someone feels as if they're being ignored, even if they're really not. (Sort of like my mother...)
I know there's a word, but at the moment, it's utterly escaping me. I swear, my brain has become a sieve.

Patronized is close to what I'm looking for. Man, I hate, hate, HATE this feeling. Words are usually at my disposal, but every now and again, I need one and it just utterly escapes me.

Crap. I missed beating Laga by one second.
Words are usually at my disposal, but every now and again, I need one and it just utterly escapes me.
There's a word for that feeling but I can't remember what it is.
They probably have a word for it in German.
