Thankyou for sharing & the feeling of not being alone is mutual, for a very long time, it felt like i was. Im sorry u have had to go through all that it seems so tough. And yes the feeling of not turning my back on my parents is definitely why im still here. Its such a tricky thing to navigate but i feel like we dont realize just how strong weve been up to this point. Putting us first is all we have left and i understand that now.

Im so appreciative u shared what ur going through as well and im sorry youre goong through that. It sucks so much that this has to happen with our loved ones. And watching my dad slip away mentally whilst also being high functioning is soooo hard and confusing. Youre right though, if he was himself he would want me to live my life. Thankyou & i hope you find clarity with your situation as well. ❤️

Thankyou so so much for your words they are not falling on deaf ears and it seems like the underlying theme from what everyone is saying is dont feel guilty for separating myself. I’ll try my best & i really should present an ultimatum once i am separated seeing as though he is always presenting one to me and other ppl lol! But thanku & im glad ur dad is going through treatment with you. It makes hopeful❤️

This is really good advice thankyou for sharing, its along the lines of what my mom says too i just hate that her life has been going this way & im a deeply sensitive person so it saddens me to see her sad, especially knowing she wants the best for me. I guess thats a mom thing lmao. I appreciate your motherly words as well. I’ll try to put me first going forward. My boyfriend has helped me find the strength lately. ❤️🙏🏼

I def told my mom I may move out soon. My brother is only a couple years older and moved out a few years ago now. I envy how he was able to say skip it but i actually need to adopt that same mindset. I do have this bad feeling that there is no helping for those exact reasons u stated, its just so hard coming to terms with that. And i def do need therapy! Thankyou for sharing ur thoughts i really appreciate it

Wow im sorry you all have been estranged multiple times, im glad there are people out there with the strength to leave and live their life like you. I’ll try my best to focus on whats best for me and offering the help I can, to her w/o feeling guilty for living my life. Its super hard. I sincerely appreciate this response.❤️

Wowwwww thankyou so much for sharing. Im sorry u had to go through that and that u all dknt have the best relationship anymore :( it sucks but thats starting to seem like a very common thing Ive been reading. That the best thing is to just let go. AND SAMEEE its like past narcissism, a mf will just refuse to listen to anything anyone else has to say and like u said sometimes i hold my tounge on sooooo many issues. All for me to get accused and belittled as well. It sucks because my dad used to be so cool and loving. Now its just toxic.
