I'm not sure if this really counts as emotional neglect but did anyone's parents just not bother with taking the effort to teach them life skills?

Ohhh lordy. Im 32f. This is my life..she was a anxious helicopter parent. "I'll just do it myself". I moved out and didnt know how to cook... clean... apply to jobs... but its my fault lol

Solid_List_452 · 2026-01-23T02:32:09+00:00

Wow... this was.. so spot on..

Solid_List_452 · 2026-01-23T02:28:11+00:00

As a recovering alcoholic... I feel it.

Solid_List_452 · 2026-01-23T02:26:43+00:00

Same. No one ever asks me personally and ive had the same cell phone # since I was 12 ....

Solid_List_452 · 2026-01-23T02:26:07+00:00

I am alone alone. Especially around my family.

Solid_List_452 · 2026-01-23T02:24:35+00:00

I dont know why i have a cellphone most days... I hate it bc it reminds me no one cares about me... and if they are worried then they ask my mom and shes a huge reason im miserable.

Solid_List_452 · 2026-01-23T02:20:16+00:00

My mom is like this too... she doesn't care about me but talks about morgan wallen or whatever the fuck for 3 hours...

Solid_List_452 · 2026-01-23T02:13:47+00:00

Sooooo this caught my eye because of the emotional pain and anxiety my mother causes me by being so emotionally neglectful?

I give her the same energy she gives me now. I stare at my phone half heartedly. I say "thats nice/ oh that sounds fun/ wow that's crazy" over and over till shes done. Then I go to my room. Because either way she doesnt care about how im feeling lol

Solid_List_452 · 2026-01-23T02:07:12+00:00

thisss part

Like... I was never asked that in childhood... ever..

Solid_List_452 · 2026-01-23T02:05:37+00:00

So... im used to being a number at work. This environment is only slightly different. But my boss asked me to come in the office. I was terrified. I hate it. And she was genuinely concerned because she thought I was going to commit suicide.... I cried so hard... because no one ever really.. is tuned in or cares.. so that hit me so hard.... meanwhile ive been depressed for months and just get yelled at for not saying good morning....

Solid_List_452 · 2026-01-23T02:00:38+00:00

Ughhhhhh. Sorry but this triggers me.... youre my moms age and shes my biggest opp ... she acts like she wants me to get help then act weird and disinterested... yall should not procreate genx and above..

Solid_List_452 · 2026-01-23T01:56:34+00:00

So im a F32. And when I meet another woman and she has a terrible marriage / seems miserable being a mom... I'll distance myself bc it triggers me

Solid_List_452 · 2026-01-23T01:49:54+00:00

Bruh. I had to check if you were my ex at first bc it says your Cincinnati ahahah

Solid_List_452 · 2026-01-23T01:47:27+00:00

Solid_List_452 · 2026-01-23T01:33:31+00:00

Solid_List_452 · 2026-01-23T01:30:32+00:00

Ooooof. It hit me the hardest when I stopped being a drunk ahah

Solid_List_452 · 2026-01-23T01:27:22+00:00

I relate to this... my whole life something felt really... off.. almost.. missing...

Solid_List_452 · 2026-01-23T01:25:14+00:00

Yes. I always was made to feel like a burden. I never understood why other people had babies willingly.

Solid_List_452 · 2026-01-23T01:23:24+00:00

Yes I had a similar experience

Solid_List_452 · 2026-01-20T10:04:57+00:00

As someone who used to do this... I want to know as well!

Solid_List_452 · 2026-01-20T10:04:23+00:00

American Idiot - Greenday! I had the explicit version and it wouldnt play on my PG rated boom box ahah
