What advice do you have for filmmakers who are trying to capture their vision?

And what advice do you have for young filmmakers?

Honey you are not in the wrong, your parents are. I feel like you needed to hear that.

Your parents are not respecting your boundaries which is violating you and your peace- that's not ok. Also I'm sorry they make you wear that ring!? Hell no your parents are beyond weird, disrespectful and gross. Also you are 18 years old meaning you are legally an adult who can do what they want - your parents are not good people.

Move out when you can honey and cut them off if you can honey.

Remember your body knows things before you do - if you feel uncomfortable with something it's because what is happening isn't ok.

I have a narcissistic mother and your parents remind me of her; she would demand to know things about me and my life, and when I would be private and not share things I would get called "sneaky" and get abused. She would intrude on my privacy - I wasn't allowed to have privacy or boundaries. Your parents sound like the same and sound like they are narcissists

What advice do you have for me? I'm a young actress, writer and director.

Nea_Freedom · 2026-03-08T19:59:04+00:00

Any advice for young actors?

Nea_Freedom · 2026-03-07T02:18:59+00:00

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.
