@jerrytwise: There are childhood experiences that most people just don’t understand. Experiences that shape you in ways that feel invisible to those who haven’t lived them. 1. Being punished—either emotionally or physically—for simply having boundaries or expressing your needs. 2. Learning that love is conditional and can be taken away without warning. 3. Being forced into roles—like caretaker, therapist, or peacekeeper—when all you needed was to be a child. 4. Feeling shamed, mocked, or guilt-tripped every time you expressed real emotion. 5. Waking up each day unsure of whether you’re walking into affection or an emotional battlefield. 6. Feeling completely invisible unless you were doing something for someone else. 7. Being praised for betraying yourself—staying small, staying quiet, never being real. 8. Living in a constant state of hypervigilance, where walking on eggshells was simply your “normal.” → These are the wounds that shape who you become. Often without others even understanding them. But you can change these patterns, recognize the trauma passed down, and work on getting your family out of you. 👉 Ready to break free from their grip?

If I’ve suffered all 8, do I win a prize?

I bet the majority of people that grew up with all 8 are GenX with Boomer parents.

saying no=disrespect, you only get my love and attention if you do what I want and how I want and get first place, mom is mad at someone at work so make sure there is nothing she can throw at me in her vacinity and Dad is home from work angry he has to clean part of the house so make sure you clean the entire house first before he makes you feel guilty for not knowing how to do the dishes correctly, is that really how you feel or is it because you think I'm a bad mom? how dare you feel any negative emotions because do you know how this affects me as your parent?, get up and get ready for school yourself because I'm already mad at your father and people at work before the day even started, staying in the bedroom to stay out of the way and are forgotten about until you are called for because someone needs something and you get yelled at because you were in the room all day but then get yelled at because you were out of the room all day and got in the way, mom says good job at making sure no one else knows about the abuse and emotional manipulation and etc and acting like a completely different person so that I don't look bad in front of my adult peers while it's probably just childish antics if I actually talk about it because my child should only do what I say and want how I say I want it, whose footsteps are those? how did work go for everyone today? notice everything about the body language and shift yourself to be prepared just in case they want to hit you because they are mad even if it's not at you. make sure everything is perfect or else you will get the burnt of it even if it's not your fault.

and you know what!? You grow up, you get therapy and don't dwell on the past. Let your padt control you or you control your past...it's a choice

All 8 but number 5 and 8 hit particularly hard. As a parent now I just can't comprehend the level of emotional & physical abuse I endured as a child.

Todd the Bod :
I was an unplanned, unwanted pregnancy. My parents were married and had a 15 month old child. I was abused. Neglected. Tied up and kept in my crib with a board over it until I was about 5. Spent years in therapy. I have no concept of parents. I’ve been essentially on my own my whole life. I survived and at 61 trying to thrive.

Normal pple just dont get ? Then how many normal pple remain on world ? Each of pple on world have some of this experiences. Every each one. Cos even adults who educated us or educate nowdays kids are damaged. 😏 This is reality . Even profesional pedagogs, psychology are damaged . I think , we are all just humans . Nobody is perfect but still we all have choice how to act .
