LOVE the crazy text rants where she makes everything about herself

What about it?

This was all because I mistakenly called her for reassurance because my toenail fell off and I had to rip the last bit off and it was bleeding and created an open wound all down the side of my toe. And literally like 2 months ago I had surgery on the same toe on the other side for an ingrown toenail. That started how? Because there was an open wound on the toe and my nail grew into it. And it was the most painful and miserable four months of my life until I could finally see a surgeon then a painful and uncomfortable and expensive surgery. So I really cannot mentally or physically afford to go through all that again so I was panicking (and still am panicked tbh) because I don’t want the same thing to happen and she gave me a speech about how she told me I should keep soaking my toe and I just don’t listen and that she’s right and I’m dumb basically and then was yelling at me and telling me I was being “ridiculous” when I started to cry and that it was all my fault for pulling it and I should have learned my lesson so I hung up on her. These are the texts that followed

Mom doesn't approve my makeup (I'm 27)

What about it?

I'm just a sleepy trash panda, nothing more, lol.

Step dad be guilt trippin.

I’m tired

What about it?

My parents have been divorced for about 11 years now. Since I was 3. Last year the rules surrounding the divorce changed. Now instead of my father making the trips up a four hour drive and down a four hour drive, my mother brings us up on a Friday for the weekend and my dad brings us back down on Sunday. Since this has changed my mother starts ranting to me because he wants to follow court order and won’t drive us up because his government job doesn’t allow him to drive. I’m so tired of it and it really pisses me off when I get the text about something I shouldn’t be talking about or hearing about. She broke court order three times simply by leaving the country without telling my dad about it. Today she got back and started ranting about what happened.

A grown man acting like this if he doesn't have his way. Do I respond?

What about it?

I'm certain that my parents are some sort of narcissist abusers but they're not diagnosed. I notice this type of complaining happens when he isn't in control of the relationship, or wants more attention. I'm trying to keep a good relationship with this person, but after a not so good childhood (to say the least, it was enabling & physical abuse) and now constant hoovering and helicoptering now that I'm over 18, I doubt this is going to last.

Just go to the hospital! I already feel bad for this child.

I used some shredded cheese

What about it?

I’m also on workers comp still paying her rent

just one example of what i deal with

What about it?

Every time i say anything she doesn’t ‘like’ she sends me a text telling me i’m ungrateful, disrespectful, etc. i apparently take her for granted, for what i don’t know. for context, i live with my parents. i’m in college full time. I wash dishes, clothes, all of the towels, i clean the kitchen, the bathrooms, the living room. everything. She literally only cooks meals, and lately i’ve even been doing that. i’m overwhelmed with classes and told her i didn’t feel like washing the dishes. and then i told her she could help me put the animals to bed for their nightly routine but she was ‘eating the house’ something we JOKE ABOUT constantly. apparently it’s suddenly not okay to say though.

one of a thousand emails from my father, accusing me of replacing my family with doubles as a 13 year old

What about it?

My dad has some kind of paranoid schizophrenia, induced by drug use, as well as god-rivaling levels of narcissism. We’ve been out of touch for a while due to his threats to my life, but he has my college email and often reaches out when he’s not in jail. From the ages of 10-14, he accused me of having sex with my mother and sisters, being a actor/double/replacement of my original self, and orchestrating a Truman Show-like reality focused on him. I can’t begin to describe the psychological harm I took on in the process of trying to convince him that I would never hurt him, since he’s my dad, and that the whole world is not out to get him, and that I was innocent of all of his disgusting accusations. I did everything I could to help the family. I sold my calculator to get us train tickets after we lost another apartment at 14. I worked two jobs since I was a sophomore to help out. I was always there to help him earn money, legal or not. After years of homelessness, abuse, being held hostage during drug binges, losing all of my little property or having it destroyed, and being made into a scapegoat for all of his issues, I got a nice scholarship from an Ivy League school that has a reputation for helping out smart kids in shitty circumstances, and was able to escape it all for good (of course pops took credit for my achievement lmao). I don’t really have a moral for this post, other than to say that it’s in the rear view mirror and to hold myself accountable in not contacting him ever again. I also just really want to vent to someone because my entire life has been pretty insane and shitty (not to be a pessimist, I have a girlfriend who loves me and have found beauty in the world), and these weird circumstances have hurt me in a lot of ways that the successful, loved people around me can never understand. I’m hoping to grow beyond it and somehow be better for it, because I don’t want to get a shit deal out of life despite the hand I was given. I’m sorry if this is all rambling or if I had typos, I’m not sober at the moment. I love you all and thank you for sharing your fucked up lives so I feel a little more normal.

The day that I left.

You know- all that FEMALE DNA IN VACCINES IS CAUSING TRANDGENDERS
