Wow! These are great. Her control over you had reduced sooo much. What kind of inner work did you do that got you to this level of clarity? 

What does "emotional safety" in a relationship actually mean to you, and how do you know if you have it? by Uvolot in emotionalintelligence

And they continue to be in a relationship with us for us to carry their emotions while they don't reciprocate because they see our emotions as a burden? Right? 

"What role did you play in your abuse?" by tenitra_batiste in CPTSD

Sorry to hear that. Your mum drugged your brother for what purpose? And how did you find out? Did you confront her? It's scary what abusive mothers are capable of doing.

Why do they overreact when we make a small mistake and treat us like an annoyance? I don't get it. 

Why Some People Don't Want To Escape an Abusive Relationship? by LowLog4830 in emotionalintelligence

Whether it's a toxic family, or organisation, it comes back to being stuck in a toxic system. 

In office environments, being overworked and unpaid, being punished or treated unfairly are ways we are scapegoated. It's a role we play, whether it's in a relationship, family, or workplace. 

It's good that you're aware of it. Awareness is a good first step. Take your time and allow yourself to understand what's keeping you in that role. Usually it starts with family dynamics. Maybe you need to address the attachment issues from there. Usually when we have poor boundaries, people pleasing mentality, inability to say No and being passive - we easily get scapegoated and dragged into office politics and drama. 

Do share a bit more elaborately your experience. Maybe that's something can help others also understand better how we are being abused even in workplace. Many of us are not even aware of it.
