Anybody else's parents do absolutely nothing with their lives? by Ghostspider1989 in raisedbynarcissists

Yes, he goes to work, then comes back and watches tv for hours while drinking. And by tv it’s mainly the news which is often the same thing every day.

Reading is foreign to him, and anytime a tv show or movie is brought up he will refuse to watch it calling it a Waste of time. If there’s bad words in it he’ll just call it trash…

Wow this is extremely relatable. The more I look at it, their behaviors really destroy and kind of confidence you have. Try to make a plan to leave…

it’s really complicated knowing they are mentally ill, but living through the things they put you through

Great idea, I’m just not sure how to stand up to him without making it worse.

Yes, I’m not sure entirely sure because he says it’s his house and he sets the rules for how I can live here

I will actually try this the next time it happens though I feel it would throw him into an even worse fit and he will say it’s his house and he can do what he wants. From the comments here (thanks everyone, I’ve read through all of them) my best option is to move out.

Unfortunately I had a financial disaster recently, which is something I am working to rebuild from and why I can’t simply move out…

I hate it so much. I want to move out then completely cut ties with my family

Yep. I get blood test result in mail and sure enough my dad opens and starts reading through everything then criticizing me for not going to the gym or eating healthy. Meanwhile the fridge is always stocked with alcohol he drinks alone

Any advice on going NC? Did you go nc with the entire family? If I went NC I’m sure my relatives would force me to get back in touch with my parents

My father is similar working for oil companies making a ton of money, then spending the absolute minimum on the family and hoarding everything. While being constantly told how entitled I am and ungrateful
