there is literally no one else in my life I treat like I treat my mom. I can't stand myself in her presence.

I became the caretaker for my dad with dementia. He has always been slightly mean to me and now everyone blames it solely on the dementia and he’s still really cheerful around others. It’s a really tough time

It is so hard when all your friends judge you for this and say ‘they seem so nice. Why are you acting that way?’

I guess I love my parents but I really don’t like being around them. They want to be close but are so self absorbed and use me as an emotional crutch so its exhausting. I’m still not heard as an adult. I’ve given up on wishing it was different or trying to make it so. I just want to put it all behind me.

I bawled today because I am jealous of my 7 year old nephew and the version of my parents that he gets.

I had to watch this a few times. I didn’t want to accept they were talking about me.

This is why I'm estranged from my son. As a single mother, I lost my nurturing tone. Always in survivor mode. He hates me

I can't stand the person I become around my mother. I literally do not behave that way around ANYONE else, EVER.

I don't ever remember my parents showing me empathy, sympathy or compassion as a child. Now that my father is older & facing his mortality he expects me to show those emotions towards him & I all I feel is cringe ... ugh, the calls. I did everything opposite w/my child & we have an amazing relationship.

Every time my mom calls I need time to count and answer or better take a long time to call her back because it’s always she want to come visit or wants to know when I’m going 3 hours away and bottom line I don’t want to go or talk to her

Some parents (mom) has disrupted my nervous system from birth. For some reason her love for me has always felt conditional. What can I do for her? What can make her look good in my presence or my accomplishments. Now my dad, he just sees me and smiles ear to ear and I feel his love, acceptance and respect for me.
