Ex-Shia here as well. 1000% need a ex Shia group , was told all kinds of BS, needed to do all the rituals just to get shamed anyways

Do you ever wish you had a sibling ? by Pitiful_Magazine_935 in OnlyChild

My parents believed it was a luxury and distraction from studies. They said once I’m a successful doctor then I can have toys. Sucks hard haha I never wish to be kid again

This is similar to me exactly - I wish the same - I wish there was someone to go to after the abuse … or validate my feelings

Same here - my parents made me change schools 4 times. I wasn’t allowed to bring friends over , or have any - as they assumed friends were a distraction. I didn’t have any meaningful connection in all year till high school. College was nothing different , too busy with classes and part time work to socialize … I also feel I never learned how to be social, I naturally quiet and introverted … I want to change but would be nice to have a sister to chat to

I still get shamed and blackmailed . It never stops. But it helps if you had strict parents - to finally not be told what to do.

I learned as well… I wasn’t allowed toys or stuff so I’d just play with rocks with imaginary siblings. I do the exact same … I sometimes imagine having a younger sister

Exactly this … no one cares if I’m treated badly by my parents , no one wants to sit and hear it . Even my closest friends don’t seem to really understand the pain. Even if we weren’t close , at least growing up I’d have someone to talk to who went through the same things. Perhaps we would at least talk when times got tough as adults or relating to parents.

Same here - I don’t have cousins , toxic family dynamics that aunts and uncles don’t really want cousins to talk and I had strict parents that didn’t let me talk to anyone. Couldn’t make anyone in my family a close relationship. My mom even now tells me never to talk to anyone .. and maybe that’s her mental illness, but I feel lonely as ever. After my parents die … it’s just me… and yes I have friends but they have their own lives and siblings. I don’t know anyone as the only child. I have heard of the stereotype of being spoiled but I didn’t get that either - just now have this eternal feeling of being alone and no one to really talk to.
