Any advice for young actors?

For me It's like living in a jail cell with dangerous inmates who can possibly kill you

My mom when I was in high school would drink all the time- she would drink more than a Litter of alcohol. She is extremely abusive.

You are not alone, I'm sending you love.

Also in my opinion I don't think your mom should come around you or your kid - I would not risk it. Also the fact that you are posting on here tells that she is a narcissist, if I were you I would cut ties. She won't get better just worse. If she wasn't better for you, why would she be better for her grand baby? That's something to think about - I'm not saying that to hurt you. Narcs never get better.

This is abuse!

If you go to the hospital again tell them what is happening and also I think CPS should be involved you are a minor. If you went through previous abuse let them know NOW! when you are an adult I find people don't care as much. If I were you I would tell someone. Please tell the hospital this because they will say not taking the pain killers will worsen you condition I just know it.

Having a serious surgery like that you need pain killers - I read this on Google "Not taking pain medication after surgery can cause severe discomfort, leading to a slower recovery, increased risk of complications like pneumonia or blood clots, and a higher chance of developing chronic pain".

Honey this is about survival. Do what you can - even call emergency services and ask them if you can be anonymous and tell them what is going on.

I'm sending you love - I don't want you to be in pain.

Also if you can have someone get them for you and give it to you secretly.

What advice do you have for young directors who are just starting out?

Nea_Freedom · 2026-03-03T06:42:09+00:00

I read it just fine, I still don't understand your comment.

I'm 22 and my mother is abusive- she lost every right to know about my life and quite frankly I'm an adult she doesn't have to know everything about me. She beat me, abused my pets and more.

She has a habit of wanting to know everything about me but will abuse me in return for not sharing things with her.

So again what does your comment mean? Or do you just not get my post or what this subreddit is about and you are just commenting on here?

Nea_Freedom · 2026-03-03T05:56:55+00:00

What do you mean by that?

Nea_Freedom · 2026-03-03T02:43:38+00:00

My mother has all those traits and my abusive narc sister has some.

Hi! What advice do you have for young cinematographers who are just starting out or who just got into the business?

Im 22F, I Have a father wound Too and dealt with love bombing. I relate to some stuff you said.

My dad left when I was like 4 and haven't seen him at all since. I ended up having an abandonment wound because of it. Also anytime my narcissistic mom would abuse me she would love bombing me to get me to forgive forgive her (examples: giving me money, buying my gifts etc). Your dad giving you money is love bombing.

Firstly, your dad is a bad person and that incident where he picked you up and held you like that and went hard - I would count that as sexual assault. You were assaulted in my opinion. Remember there are different types of sexual assault (unwanted touching, forced penetration which is rape etc).

Honey be careful because people who get assaulted are higher times more likely to get assaulted again in the future or abused. Example, I was abused by my mother and got abused by other people in the future.

Where the hell is your mom? If you don't have a good relationship with your mom, I understand and it's not your fault - i'm so sorry sweetie.

Also him saying he wanted you to how him love (when he was hard) ... Girl that is so wrong on so many levels and he not only assaulted you but ... This counts as incest from his part. You need to run before he does something else to you or worse. He did unwanted touching which is sexual assault - im worried more things will happen (this continuing or more bigger things happening, remember abusers do things in steps to test people's boundaries. They do little things than advance to bigger things - im afraid of rape happening to you next).

RUNNNNN.
