hot take, actually acknowledging what happened to us and allowing ourselves to feel an appropriate amount of rage is the ONLY way to enlightenment

Actually bringing awareness and light to the abuse is the ONLY WAY to enlightenment.

Jiffy_Jafferson :
the only way to heal is to be angry as one of the stages of grieving, if you suppress that to worry about how your parents feel then you keep the anger stuffed down and coming out sideways at them and everyone else. you need to be allowed to be angry at your parents without having to think of how they feel for once. that's what kept you stuck for so long. parents are supposed to acknowledge their mistakes and repair the relationship, where is their empathy for their kids? it has to come from the parents first, not the other way around.

I thought after I became an adult they'd be supportive. But yet I'm still expected to be the support. Let's all laugh together 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🔥🔥🔥🔥

It drove me into empathy burnout and wasn’t doing a thing. After I let the rage be and the anger and sadness, that’s when I started to heal. Still in it, but way better then I had empathy.

Yeah absolutely. And as another comment says, I would say add as well that enlightment is not pushing things under the rug or dismissing the fact they didn't take accountability. That's fawning, and exposing you to further harm. You can have empathy and be enlightened and know you can absolutely point out the unfairness of things. You can be kind to them, doesn't mean that kindness includes exposing yourself to further harm and holding in your truth about their wrongs. And you don't owe them a link they didn't cherish over time with you.

my mom as said "why would I apologize? I've forgiven myself and that's all that counts" so she's kinda made our choices 🤷♀️

how is seeing the patterns not enlightenment 😭 like you’ll probably stop complaining about it at some point but there’s a time to rage about it too before you can get over it

You encounter the best version of yourself by working through what you went through and healing from it. This is working through it.
