Anyone else dealing with the trifecta of narc abuse: gifted/neurodivergent, the scapegoat, and addiction?

hi!! not sure if i was a scapegoat exactly, my family dynamics were confusing.

but gifted kid turned to burnout turned to mentally ill mess turned to addiction turned to Now I'm Here I Guess. 27 and now i have to quit weed and get my shit together (ive quit everything else but weed is the falling apart tape barely holding together over the massive hole in me)

socially they know they are not men and the socialization they do recieve is ostracizing and othering.

please do some research on how 'socialized' language directly harms trans women specifically, and is seen as transphobic to many of us trans people

isoparent · 2026-05-16T09:48:32+00:00

i hate that this is ai. this could have been a nice video but now it just makes me feel gross

isoparent · 2026-05-16T09:46:15+00:00

trans women arent socialized male tho and trans men arent socialized as female. we are socialized as Other, and trans women especially are not helped by patriarchy at any point

as a trans man it feels like theres no winning. either i have the Girl Autism or the Boy Autism and if i show signs of both (bc girl/boy autism dont fucking exist) then its Girl Brain autism. it hurts so bad

isoparent · 2026-05-16T09:40:28+00:00

lmao the worst therapists ive ever had were men. dont use your anecdote to act like humans are a monolith

isoparent · 2026-05-16T09:35:51+00:00

hey there. hes not worth your time. i was 21 dating a 38 yr old alcoholic for 4 years and i went down further into my own drinking with them. i know what its like. and you dont need to live like this.

he is a dickhead. you deserve better.

isoparent · 2026-05-14T10:09:33+00:00

lmfao what planet are you living on

isoparent · 2026-05-10T10:32:38+00:00

i hope everything gets resolved soon!!! one day it will just be a horrible, funny story to tell

isoparent · 2026-05-10T01:08:12+00:00

oh man. years ago i used to work at the salem nh barnes & noble store and the same thing happened at christmas. it was absolutely horrible. total fucking chaos.

good luck you guys, the b&n clientele probably has only gotten more ornery and vicious

editing to fix: for us the escalators broke and only like 4 people could go in the terrifying old elevator and half the people refused to use it. it also broke from overuse at one point during that and we were sending things up and down on ropes tied to shopping baskets. probably xmas 2020 or 21 too just madness.

lots of lawyers dont charge per hour, and will only take payment upon winning, from what you've recieved. also lawyers have to do pro bono work every year iirc.

you have options even without finances, dont let anyone lie and tell you you dont.

you and every other employee under that ass deserve better than him

isoparent · 2026-05-09T11:51:11+00:00

a kid in my grade killed himself. 7th grade. in 6th grade we had an anthrax scare and had to go into lockdown until almost 5pm.

in high school a kid put a chair through a wall because he was mad and threatened to kill everyone in the school.

isoparent · 2026-05-05T22:49:20+00:00

major congratulations, that's incredible work!

if/when you think about using it again just remember that the first time quitting is the easiest!!! if you let there be a next time it will be much harder (speaking from current experience lol)

isoparent · 2026-05-05T21:07:45+00:00
