I’ll be embarrassed just watching shows I like alone in my apartment. It’s so hard for me to even do things I like because it just feels so uncomfortable.

I grew up with a mother who made a negative comment about EVERYTHING.

Horsebeast :
She was so disgusted about everything. Her appearance every day. Her clothes. Other people’s clothes. My weight (I was skinny but she still found ways to make me feel insecure). Other people’s weight. Strangers who hadn’t talked to her. Other cars on the road. Her own cooking. The list was never ending. Hyper critical and disgusted over everything.

omg. I thought I was the only one who had this experience. I STILL feel shame if music I like is on with my husband in the car. because everything I loved was mocked, judged, or had a visceral reaction to it.

My mom’s judgement and disgust became my inner voice and source of social anxiety. I always think people are watching me and judging me.

My mom always pointed out overweight people to me and told me “that’s so gross.” Guess what I always think about?? Those words. That attitude. Words have power.

having a negative parent has made my inner voice soooo negative. It’s so hard to unlearn

I call it the 110% Standard. no matter what I or anyone else did my mother would point out how it could have been done better. so I believed there was no such thing as "good enough" being acceptable. i burned out at 37.

And then your mom says she knows you better than anyone in the world.

Totally relate to this. And any ‘big’ feelings that I had (mind you I was a child then a teenager) was met with exasperation and judgement. Talk about not feeling at all safe from the people whose role it is to keep you safe.

Yes! “The face” still hate thinking about it. And hate hearing my full name being said out loud.

My mom and grandmother spoke SO negatively about everyone. Things people couldn’t help, things that shouldn’t have bothered anyone, things that had absolutely no effect in their lives whatsoever… it too my until my 30’s to realize it and change myself.

My mom was super opinionated too. And I saw everything very very black and white for a long time. Because she acted SO strongly about things.

I’ve been a chameleon for so long that I do not know who I am and feel a loss of identity. I’m everyone else but me.

I always thought being a chameleon was my super power but now I’m starting to realize it’s a defense mechanism

My mom’s voice even changes! She responds so strongly to things with such disgust she doesn’t even sound like herself.
