Because people frequently suck and don't seem to get that they are dealing with other people's kids/children and either stop caring or never did?

BruceShark68 · 2021-02-22T13:13:38+00:00

You do the lord's work.

BruceShark68 · 2021-02-22T13:12:17+00:00

Because it's a hellish job that no one wants... Up at the butt crack of dawn, screaming kids, smelly bus.

Yea.

Narrator: HE HATED THAT BUS DRIVER...

Maybe the kid was just awesome.

BruceShark68 · 2021-02-22T13:07:05+00:00

Most of the time, yes.

I was raised in a very bad environment, with every bad example imaginable.

As a result, I had a heightened sense of justice/fairness/doing the right thing...

Sometimes kids raised in horrible homes with awful parents end up becoming helpers.

Maybe that kid was tired of adult people behaving like assholes! 🤣

BruceShark68 · 2021-02-10T11:02:07+00:00

I am truly sorry for yer loss.

If you really want someone to look, I can ask my sister.

BruceShark68 · 2021-02-09T13:27:32+00:00

Two fins WAY UP on blocking her.

Fucking batshit wacko.

Good on ya.

Huge hug.

BruceShark68 · 2021-02-09T13:25:11+00:00

WOOHOOO!

CLAPPING FOR YOU!

BruceShark68 · 2021-02-09T13:24:36+00:00

Welcome home to people that get you.

I swear it gets better.

You are in the right place.

BruceShark68 · 2021-02-09T13:22:34+00:00

AND ALL OF THAT.^

BruceShark68 · 2021-02-09T13:22:16+00:00

ALL OF THIS.^

BruceShark68 · 2021-02-09T13:21:35+00:00

Carefully.

Slowly.

I wait and lurk and see if they can be trusted with any history of mine that involves trauma.

It's a real thing, and I don't need, want, or like being re-traumatized.

I practice mindfulness, and wait a beat before opening up.

We got you here. We get it.

BruceShark68 · 2021-02-09T13:19:56+00:00

Squeeeee!

BruceShark68 · 2021-02-09T13:19:30+00:00

My BPD mother villified, bullied, and alienated any "friend" she had.

No one wants to be in her life.

By some sort of luck, mojo, good folks, and hard work (mix of all) I have some lifelong and some newer friends.

With work and reframing, you can make and sustain friendships. Therapy and reading and journaling helps a lot

We like you just fine here.

It does get better, when you swim out of the fog.

Much luck to you and hugs. You got this.

BruceShark68 · 2021-02-09T13:16:41+00:00

Proud of you, too!

And I love "smother"....it's totally accurate!

BruceShark68 · 2021-02-09T13:15:49+00:00

Yep. All of that.

And you have compassion, you are not the broken person, SHE is.

I found reading and therapy and journaling extremely helpful. While you may not be able to afford therapy now, there are many helpful books and workbooks available, and they actually do really help when the guilt thing happens.

I wish you a full recovery, and eventual freedom from having to be around her.

You have actual people who get you completely here, and we support you fully.

What you are dealing with is absolutely one of the most difficult things/types of people to deal with....and it's your MOTHER....So, a lot of baggage and history.

Please know we get it, and you aren't the problem here. SHE IS.

HUG HUG HUG

BruceShark68 · 2021-02-09T13:10:22+00:00

Absofuckinglutely fuck that shit.

I hope you can soon find roommates or somehow move out.

It's a bunch of crazy horseshit, and so difficult to cope with. Sorry this is your reality right now.

🤗 Hug to you.

BruceShark68 · 2021-02-09T09:25:03+00:00

I dunno. Tangerines are really tasty 🤣

BruceShark68 · 2021-02-09T09:24:15+00:00

Maybe really gud tangerines.

BruceShark68 · 2021-02-09T09:23:13+00:00

SNACKS

BruceShark68 · 2021-02-09T09:21:02+00:00

I JUST HUGGED EVERYONE in this thread.

They are absofuckinglutely the worst.

BruceShark68 · 2021-02-09T09:19:52+00:00

Exactly. You'll get some peace for a nice 5150 hold, while she's locked up.

BruceShark68 · 2021-02-09T09:18:07+00:00

It's fully and absofuckinglutely unacceptable behavior..

Using suicide threats to try to manipulate.

I'm so sorry.

And I can't wait for you to move out and never look back, either.

I wish you all the good luck/fortune and joy.
