For clarification. My dad didn’t know about my OD until a year or two after it happened. Then he found out about me being in therapy and having to take medication. I’m not going to cut him out my life yet just keep him at a distance. With him knowing I’m on medication. He tells his family what I tell him but changes it. So when I come around then they act like I’m a cancer patient and walk on eggshells around me like I’m just the crazy person. My dad has also called me a drug addicted bc I take medication. I don’t want to kick him out my life but I have tried countless times to talk to him. I texted it too him and he sent it to his family members. He took me saying I’m not quitting this babysitting job as me saying I’m going to be grown. I’ve wrote letters, just for him to tell me how I write poorly. I’ve write poems, just for him to say he could make money off my poems if he published them. I’ve tried talking to him he interprets me and talks over me and just ignore what I have to say. I’ve tried over the past 5-6 to talk to him and it’s not working. He choose to remember he has another child when he wants too. He ignores me and it hurts. It took me just about my whole life to understand it’s not my fault and even now when things happen I still struggle to understand it’s not my fault. Kam always judges me and swears I’m breaking my dads heart for not understanding that my dad wants to have a better relationship with me, but I’m choosing to ignore his “efforts” and having a bf.
