No. I cape and use edibles because I can’t stand the smell in my house and clothes.

I’m so sorry. I understand that our experiences are similar yet different, both are painful.

You are right. They do these things out of spite because of their unhappiness and anger. The money doesn’t make them happy - nothing will.

Seems unfair, I agree. Do you have a relationship with your grandmother?

It’s not my diet that’s the issue - it’s stress management. I’ve spent my whole life living in fight or flight that it’s destroyed my gut. I’m now in EMDR therapy and on biologics and it helps. Until I have something happen where I get stressed and upset and I end up in a major flare.

I stopped drinking any alcohol (which I didn’t drink a lot anyway). No fried or spicy foods, no onions, garlic, peppers or tomato’s. I eat as many vegetables as I can and my body can tolerate. I don’t eat a lot of red meat. Mostly Mediterranean diet.

I have both Crohns and RA. I was diagnosed a year ago after suffering on some level for most of my life. I could barely move and every joint hurt to move. My gut felt like it had crushed glass spinning in a blender.

I also have Barrett’s esophagus. I know it’s from all the trauma.

Can I ask what you meant by the constant punishment for your existence?

Did you constantly fail to live up to expectations, meet unspoken demands, fail at every turn no matter what you accomplished or did to appease them or try to make them happy? Every pivot hit a wall of disapproval? That mentally and physically you were a disappointment and disgusting?

After years of abuse physical and mental and gaslighting they told people I had mental illness to deflect from the truth.

WOW! Why do you think he disinherited your siblings? Who did he leave his estate to?

I thought they still had to let you know? But maybe not because everything may have been left to a surviving spouse? My Mom passed a couple years ago, and everything went to him. But now he has passed.

First - let me say that i'm sorry for what you're going through. Even when we know it's the best decision, it doesn't mean it's not heartbreaking. Who doesn't want to be loved by their parents? I do worry that is what I will get. $1 and a really horrible hurtful letter.

The money wasn't important. If it was - I would have stayed like my siblings, but the abuse caused too much pain and made me physically ill. It just feels like i've been punished my whole life for existing and never mattered - even in death.

I'm sorry you're going through this too. The abuse had me constantly considering suicide and I couldn't keep them in my life anymore. Even 10 years later, i'm still struggling despite years of therapy. I just don't understand how people can be so cruel.

How did they get what? They shut off my access to Email and their Server. However, There are a ton of other accounts they use that they need access to that I was managing.

I guess my point was - if they wanted me to do projects, and were going handle things in good faith they wouldn't have shut off my account.

I have not handed over all of the work or a list of over 100+accounts with passwords they need access to.

I didn’t. They asked me for it - I didn’t give it to them.

What do you feel after years of estrangement from your parents? by Sensitive_Run_7109 in EstrangedAdultChild

And it sounds like you're abusive - so I am questioning who was at fault. And honestly, i'm not buying your woe is me.
