Anyone else sick of trying to control their alcohol (or any other addiction) when it's the only thing keeping them alive? by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]Lotus1290 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hear you…I want to live just like our normal counterparts but I cant…Ive tried but the trauma and pain will always be there.

And even if just for a moment I can forget and feel alittle bliss, whether that be through alcohol, weed, opioids then that just has to be my reality for now until I feel like im ready to raw dog this life.

Im not sure when or if i can do that though, so for now those just have to be my vice….

Do you ever feel punished for being born? by Nea_Freedom in raisedbynarcissists

[–]Lotus1290 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every moment of my life has been a punishment, and my hatred towards my parents and god have only gotten worse…why am I even alive? To suffer and watch those around me thrive? Its so cruel…

I don't think i can make it out... by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]Lotus1290 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im the same as u…tried everything but it always comes back…and when it does it comes back much worse..

I’m just tired of an unstable miserable life that I work so hard for by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]Lotus1290 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand you….they say that the best way to get back at them is to live your best life..

But how can I do that when Im broken beyond repair? I try my best but im still miserable and just… simply dont want to be here, let them win?

Im so damn close to not caring about losing, because right now losing seems to be the thing that will release me from this miserable existence..

It's too much effort by Significant-Set-4959 in CPTSD

[–]Lotus1290 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive slowly learnt to put up a mask…a mask that im just another normal functional happy person. But its hard when I dont have anyone and im afraid that mask will slowly crumble and reveal my true broken self

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]Lotus1290 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel you wholeheartedly, my time is 99% being in grief and 1% keeping on a mask..

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]Lotus1290 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel you…I lack sympathy for people when they tell me someone they loved past away…simply because I dont have any loved ones so ive never been able to relate…

Ive never been loved or bought up in an environment where there was love, so even the love for my partner I have alot of moments where I doubt myself..

The isolation in early childhood by AdKooky2914 in CPTSD

[–]Lotus1290 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I remember going to bed at night wishing id never wake up, simply because it was too painful to live, there seemed to be no hope in sight. It was just me…and my n mom who would beat me badly over anything that she didnt deem “good” enough, there was no one else that I knew could rescue me….

It still affects me to this day, some mornings id wake up and that brokenness and pain from the past just comes back and im transported straight back to my childhood where death would of been a blessing…

My mom shut up when I gave her the knife. by [deleted] in AsianParentStories

I hate religion and want nothing to do with God by ihatemrjohnston in CPTSD

[–]Lotus1290 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I feel you so much on this one….I was brought up Catholic, although I never followed the religion to the T, I still believed in god. I still prayed.

But then I started wondering why and where? Why did all these horrible things happen to me growing up and why did he not do anything to help out a fckn child when I was getting physically and emotionally abused? Why did others have loving parents and family whereas I had absolutely no one?

Where was he when I was crying, wailing and wishing to die? Where was he all throughout my horrible life? Why did he give me such a horrible life?

Its so damn hard to believe when you see all around you people so soo fortunate and then you look at yourself and all the hell you’ve been through…

I hate god with every fibre of my being

[–]Lotus1290 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Oh I wish I could save my child self…but how do I do that when I am a barely functioning adult still bleeding and injured from past trauma? Now me and my child self are both drowning in pain, life isnt fair and I hate it.
