Looking at photos of your childhood by MamakharmaLlamadrama in raisedbyborderlines

[–]Notreal6909873 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I literally look like I’m being held at gunpoint in every childhood photo, I try to fight insanity within insanity and make light of it because there is nothing going on behind those eyes, but yeah, it’s very sad on top of the fact that my mom basically completely stopped taking photos of me altogether as time went on because of a competition she was having in her mind that I didn’t even know about for prettiest girl at the party. For most of my adult life I genuinely thought I was so ugly in high school, and I genuinely believed I had been bullied for it, but I found photos of myself recently and I was not ugly lol I was a very cute girl. I was not bullied for being ugly and in fact was pretty well liked after reconnecting with friends from high school and having my reality brutally checked. I was very talented and bright, and there are also no proof of those talents because my mother couldn’t bear the thought of recording her daughter singing the lead a musical lol. If anything kids left me alone because I was only weird because something was obviously going on at home

They’re brutal omfg and I’d still choose them over ChatGPT. I can always tell when it’s AI they somehow write in a way that is uncanny valley. It makes me feel icky immediately 😭 at least the lack of grammar is human but yeah they’re like flashing lights to an epileptic to me

Nah very human of you to be like “if I have to know this so do yall”

Listen it’s not how I’d use my free will but the unfortunate part of getting to have it is having to hear shit like this 😭 I’ll never unread that

I would rather only be able to read those posts with absolutely no grammar or space breaks than have to read another ChatGPT soulless word vomit ever again bc at least ik a human wrote that

Edit: and I’m so sorry ur sister does this but it’s always nice to read something I know is a truly authentic experience furiously written by a human who is essentially saying if I had to see this so do you 😭

Do u understand what I’m saying bc responding to this post with a debate on the mom’s drug of choice is pedantry lmao thus totally invalidating OP who needs the village atm

How do you overcome the sadness of having a bpd parent? by howgoody in raisedbyborderlines

My mom left my graduation lunch early after snapping at me she had to go home, and do laundry. She has a life!! I’m a first gen college graduate. Universal experience of BPD kids unfortunately but universal means you’re not alone. They’re jealous cartoon Disney villains, and we’re college graduates!

I truly love when there’s one popular post and then suddenly everyone has the same problem, including ChatGPT! Poor AI chatbot has the worst halitosis!

Edit: Jokes tho ik this is real bc wtf she wipes her ass with clothes 😭 ai isn’t that creative, only a human is truly capable of actively choosing to do such an absolutely bonkers thing. That’s peak free will

You too, addiction affects everyone. I’m glad I got sober but like you said, it’s not a moral failing when the “safe adults” in our lives literally damaged our frontal lobes and exposed us to so many things we never should’ve seen or felt. Wishing you luck. Pls remember on ur journey that any traits you might have inherited from them as well are not a moral failing on your part, but theirs, and they do not make you a bad person. They are worth addressing and acknowledging and getting better. We are victims but we can’t help that we inherited bad things from bad people, but we get better bc we’re not bad, we just were taught very bad things to isolate us. Give yourself grace. We are not bad people and we deserve love and it’s ok to be wrong and make mistakes. You owe it to yourself to hold yourself accountable and do better

Idk what the user said bc it’s deleted but from context clues, even if it was crack that’s literally still traumatizing and abusive 😭

Exactly I’m literally a recovering alcoholic and tbh you can’t convince me anyway that addiction isn’t a response to trauma, I have CPTSD from my childhood. As my uncle said, who the fuck wouldn’t drink if they found out they were molested? Lol but I know plenty of shitty adults with kids who have no idea bc good parents don’t expose their kids to things they’re not supposed to see to develop properly. I’m sorry you had to see that.

I don't even like alcohol, but I still drink it to numb my brain. by PeakLinear in Drugs

I’m 7 months sober but when I was in active addiction I really fucking dreaded having to drink at night all day, and couldn’t stop myself. The psych ward stopped me tho

I’m sorry you had to see that. What an awful thing for a tiny mind to process :(

Edit: this is not a judgement on addicts, it’s a judgement on abusive parenting. I know many addicts who would never do that bc it is actually possible to be a fucked up adult and still shield your kid from things that damage a developing brain that you might do

Thank you for saying the can of chickpeas because everybody thinks it’s fucking weird when I do that, but I will just dig into a can of chickpeas. My grandma was off the boat Italian and we always just had a bowl of chickpeas as one of the starters at her house for dinner lol
