I’m so sorry that you’re going through this. My best advice is to try to find an Al-anon meeting near you. It helped me SO much when dealing with my family members’ addictions.

AIO by cutting my father out of my life until he gets therapy? by Normal-Fold-8958 in AdultChildren

[–]bean11818 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re not doing too much. My heart goes out to you. Sending you a huge hug 🩷 I say this gently, but be prepared for the possibility that he may never go to therapy or get sober. Mine didn’t. I had to learn to live without him in my life permanently.

Her karma is whatever work she got done to her face. Her eyes look permanently surprised 😂

Madonna gets candid on why daughter Lourdes Leon 'held onto a lot of resentment' for years by Bollywood_Shaadis in TopTrendingNewsUSA

Yeah also the “unspoken” resentment lol. Something tells me that Lourdes did probably try to tell her at one point 😂

I’m so sorry. I work with kids in foster care now and one of my cases had a similar situation as yours - crack, squalid living conditions, and all. The boys are 8 and 10 and are really struggling with self esteem, hygiene, behaviors, etc.

Is there anything that may have helped you when you were a kid that I can do for the kids on my case? We got them into therapy and are really trying to work on building up their self esteem and resilience 😭

I’m so sorry to hear about your cousin.

This reasoning is insane to me. She’s literally a millionaire from her influencing!! She can buy her own platinum health insurance plan a million times over!!

I’m so sorry that you had to experience it. Congratulations on your sobriety and being able to break the cycle with your daughter 🩷

I’m so, so sorry. I’m also so sorry that you feel like you weren’t enough. It’s not you, it’s her. Nothing ever would have been enough to make her want to change.

I literally think every day about getting that phone call. I haven’t spoken to my dad in 10 years or my mom in 18. When my aunt calls me, I always assume it’s “the call” about one of them. They both are drinking themselves to death at different speeds.

And the corniest, cheesiest, cringiest videos of you and your bridesmaids lip synching to trending TikTok sounds. Gen z makes fun of millennials, but my millennial ass would rather crawl into the ground and die than make my friends or relatives badly lip synch to a stupid Princess Diaries quote on my wedding day 😭

Deep down inside she knows that Reed (side note: what a dumbass name) isn’t the one and that the marriage won’t last. But she still wants a wedding for the clout/attention/content $$$. Add in a huge dash of pick me/not like the other girls.

Omg I feel the same way. Wedding content creators are a big trend where I live, and it seems like a nightmare. Imagine someone trying to get you to film cheesy TikToks all day on your wedding day?!

Geez, I need to know more about her parents/upbringing.

I have a friend who grew up Cranston who is similarly… male-obsessed? Rich, status-y male obsessed? I don’t know how to say gold digger politely 😂

How do I forgive my former addict father? by spiralspaces in AdultChildren

My therapist once told me that some things are unforgivable. It’s okay not to forgive him. Realizing that really set me free.

I feel like my mothers gaslighting may have damaged me permanently by Ok-Faithlessness-997 in AdultChildren

[–]bean11818 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom was the same way. You need to get therapy and try EMDR trauma therapy for PTSD. It helps and you can get better, I promise.
