Hey it’s Pink :
I’m turning 40 in a few weeks and I’ve spent those 40 years just trying to keep my head above water. I’ve done therapy for many years at this point but I feel broken and just an inconvenience unless I do and say what’s expected and I’m not a bother to anyone. I have adhd and being myself is never an option around family and I’m tired.

And a reminder to everyone, those people decide to have us and then not give us the proper care we needed.

my childhood wasnt that bad! I just. cant remember much of it, and the parts I do remember are being scared alone and doing things myself

They bought me everything I asked for for Christmas. But they never tried to actually talk to me like a person. I always said they felt like my bosses and I was an employee

Growing up in a house that doesn't say "I love you", definitely made navigating adult relationships challenging.

I always say, "the absence of something that should have happened can be just as impactful as the presence of something that shouldn't have."

I WILL STAND 10 TOES DOWN ON THIS. I’ve watched my mom and her ex literally beat eachother. Unphased. But not even talking to my mom or dad growing up. Sitting at the table. Asking questions. Doing things together. We literally existed in the same house.

If you’re parents didn’t delight in you and you didn’t feel that delight than that’s neglect.

This discovery happened to me in therapy. I was in such denial. Also if you have a narc parent they will often convince you that you had a great childhood.

Undiagnosed autistic children get massively neglected because we don't show emotions the way its expected, so its just assumed we don't feel jt

Meditating With A Candle :
Emotional abuse and neglect is literally worse than physical abuse as a child, 100%

So sorry. Me too, at 50 I realized I was invisibl. My role was to be a prop in my family. When I started to want anything, I got aggression.

I see relationships happen in front of me and still don't believe it's possible

I recently realized that my insecurities, the way I perceive the world, and how I feel I have to act around other people all stem from this. It goes much deeper than it seems. The hardest part is that parents often never acknowledge or admit it, because in many cases they were raised the same way.

What is triggering for me is now that we are adults and grown up that they suddenly want to hug you and spam you with "I love yous", it's super uncomfortable. Then they wonder why you're being difficult because you don't want to hug them or say it back, like no offence, but you don't get to do this now after all these years...

That’s honestly one of the worst forms of childhood trauma because you can’t see it with your eyes, but you feel erased in real time. But because no physical abuse happen, nobody knows about it but you so you feel completely alone and isolated. I feel the same way. Thank you for speaking about this

thatsrowsmom :
This is why I have such a hard time explaining to people why my childhood was bad. My mom literally said to me once it’s not like your dad hit you to downplay everything I experienced.

DefiantDaughter :
I have ZERO emotional connection with them. I’m 42 and I can’t hug them or don’t know the last time they even said I love you.
