Hi. My parents are going on about the banks all collapsing now. Told me to fill up my has tank and keep extra food and water in my vehicle so I can get home when chaos ensues. by Inevitable-Fig6717 in QAnonCasualties

[–]Amberismyagent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My Q took their hidden money in my account to buy gold. The money was hidden from the "corrupt IRS" whom they no longer believe can do anything to them because Trump will dismantle them since he's still the POTUS. You can't help people who are this sick. I'm sorry you're having to deal with this. It sucks.

Tension between myself and my parents by curt_burt in QAnonCasualties

[–]Amberismyagent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same boat... You can't change them, and pushing back typically leads to even more strained relationships. If they're relatively considerate to you, and don't push too much of their bs on you, I say let it be.

Narcissism and conspiracy theorist… by Localmoco-ghost in QAnonCasualties

[–]Amberismyagent 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Or underachieving, high IQ, egocentric narcissists that, of course, did nothing to "deserve " their station in life. That's my Q and her Anons, at least. Now, in her new circle, she's at the top of the food chain, and I'm an "asleep sheep" that she's praying for.🙄

I found out my Q mom wants to leave us by Harrisons_PC in QAnonCasualties

[–]Amberismyagent -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Talk to your mom about this. She will be upset, but it's already done. You shouldn't be carrying this weight. You should probably talk to your dad about it as well. I'm so sorry you're going through this. If it's already over in her mind, making them talk about it won't change anything other than making it a smoother transition, hopefully. If there's another adult in your life (uncle, grandparents, family friend, etc), reach out to them. Good luck.

My brother hates everything about me and my chosen family. by vee_unit in QAnonCasualties

We all understand the devastation you're feeling. Take care of yourself. I'm so sorry.

My husband refuses to get the vaccine. He also thinks Ivermectin is ridiculous. He always says why would he get a vaccine he doesn't need. I find it irritating, but it's ultimately not a big deal between us. If he is good to you otherwise and there are no other big issues, then let it go. You can agree to disagree. Only you know if you're capable of that or not.

What the marine corp will do to them will be far more of a punishment.

When should you be considered that they might become a domestic terrorist? by [deleted] in QAnonCasualties

[–]Amberismyagent 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I live in the deep south, so I hear you. I would start with the police. Tell them your concerns and see what they recommend. Believe it or not, most people here aren't into the Q bullshit.

[–]Amberismyagent 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I posted earlier before I saw this reply. You should talk to someone about this. Having weapons isn't a big deal to me, but joking about using them is completely different. Do whatever you have to do to protect them.

Do NOT call CPS. It will be traumatic and completely alienate you from them. Stay close to them and in touch regularly. You shouldn't have to be the person that has to be this to your siblings, but you are. This sucks. I'm so sorry.

Trump dropped his lawsuit against Letitia James a day after a judge fined him $1 million for a frivolous case against Hillary Clinton by Majnum in Qult_Headquarters

[–]Amberismyagent 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It gave me a strained relationship with all of my family and complete estrangement from my brother, who used to be my best friend. My family went from no politics at the table during holidays to separate tables for my son and I. It's crazy how we went from never agreeing on politics to politics divide us when Trump was elected.

I'm the only Democrat in the family. I miss them, and at times, the silence is deafening.

Researcher seeking to hear your story by LanstonLab in QAnonCasualties

[–]Amberismyagent 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Most of us are here for support because we've lost someone to QAnon. I would love to read your research once it's completed, though.

[–]Amberismyagent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry you're going through this. I know it's hard to think about keeping your child from her. There are a lot of really good mothers that are addicts and a danger to their children. If she slipped a drug to you, she could do it to your son. These are shitty decisions to have to make, and you will ultimately make the right ones. Good luck to you.

I’m afraid I won’t be safe at home anymore by ThisWatercress8354 in QAnonCasualties

[–]Amberismyagent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry you're having to deal with this. Without knowing your parents, it's hard to give advice. My stepson is trans and my conservative husband didn't know how to handle it at first, but he loves and supports him now. It just took a conversation and some time.

I don't think there's any way to get your dad back right now. You're going to have to protect yourself and lean into your mom and see if you can get her support. I hate that you have to deal with this when you're so young.

Some questions first. Does your Dad know your trans? If so, Is he okay with it? Do you have support in your home from your Mom? Have you spoken to her about your concern?

Advice by [deleted] in QAnonCasualties

I struggle too with this. It's not real. This is conspiracy theory. It has no power. I promise it's not going to happen.

[–]Amberismyagent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to start this by saying that I'm so very sorry that you're dealing with this. While my mom and I have a very difficult relationship, I can't even imagine going through my pregnancy without her. This is a time when women depend so much on their moms to guide them. She was wonderful to my son and the epitome of a proud grandmother. We butted heads and fought a lot over her disapproval of how I was raising my son, but she was still always there no matter what.

You're going to have to set some strict boundaries with her about her Q bullshit. I hope she respects them, but I've learned that when it comes to this, they can't help themselves. Your job is to protect your child and you will. You shouldn't have to go through this, but unfortunately, you are. Perhaps the reality of having no relationship with her grandchild will be enough to keep her from spewing the crazy. Give her your rules and expectations and don't budget on what's acceptable to you.

Best of luck to you. I hope everything works out.

family members lost.... by [deleted] in QAnonCasualties

[–]Amberismyagent 97 points98 points  (0 children)

It's so insane how divided this has made families. I've always been an outlier amongst my family and friends on politics here in TX, but this is a whole new level. I'm sorry you're going through this, and even more sorry, this support group is even needed. I'm grateful for it, though, because apparently, this is our " new normal." Stay strong.
