not fond of my mother

Wishing a happy holidays to those of us whose families make our nervous systems feel like we are prey animals on the forest floor being hunted for sport xx

Anyone a DOAWK fan? @stealthilypulsingmaverick decided to voice act the LLB: Dysfunctional Perspective by MoonSXG1 (u/ABitchWhoMakesShit) on Reddit!

This is going to be after the ROTTMNT dub, and that one is a WIP currently. Stay tuned for more updates, and I hope you will enjoy the voice acting and the ✨️superior✨️ editing!

All voice acting dubs will be posted on my second channel, @StvrEQM_Saturn, and on their channel, @Ne0n_YS!

I don't have -

"THE RIGHT TO SORROW"

Does anyone else's mother always call em "ungrateful", "useless", and a flipping "crybaby" who can't do anything but complain and never helps them around the house when you've been nothing but respectful and compliant af at all times??

She's usually not like this but when it happens it hurts a lot. I know they care a lot for me and help me with whatever but this emotional aspects r well....uhm.

The only people who have "The Right to Sorrow" in this so-called home r her and dad. Whenever I show ANY EMOTION whatsoever its shunned!!

● If I'm happy = prolly not working hard enough, not serious bout life blah blah

● If I'm sad = crybaby, complainer, ungrateful

● If I'm angry = disrespectful, too much, insane

I cant win chat 😭🙏 and it's NEVER the other way around.

Like I've become a people pleaser, am timid af, have trouble with saying NO and boundaries in general. Even my best frnd is prolly a covert narc bruhh. I've crippling low self esteem, suffer from constant overthinking and am fucking DEPRESSED since like the last 5-6 YEARS(on n off). I almost feel manic with how my mood swings when I get even slightly triggered. Idk, I'm wondering if I'm a problem too yk like genuinely but idk guys...REGARDLESS—

Never Back Down Never Whatt?

NEVER GIVE UP 🗣

My father is a small child in a man's body

I say a lot of things about my father. He's aggressive, dismissive, and self-centered. And yet I can't help but pity him. I see how his eyes look when he sits alone at the dinner table. This wasn't the life he envisioned for himself when he was a young man. He likes to say he doesn't need to prove himself to anyone but lies to his coworkers for validation. He puffs his chest and criticizes himself in the mirror. He swears it's a habit he wants to break. I'd like to think that that's what he sees when he yells at me and my brother. His father taught him that real men don't cry. I guess what I mean to say is that he's still a small child trying to be a man. He's failed. And I could try to hug him, give him the comfort he's never felt, but he'd push me away. He's a scared boy who doesn't know what he's doing here.

Sometimes I feel like the severity of my parents fights wasn’t real. Because things are peaceful right now. I feel like everything is okay. And it makes me feel like the hurt I felt isn’t real. Like it can’t be counted as traumatizing. Like I am over dramatic about the fights. Like they weren’t that bad. I can only tell myself the effects of it. The fact that the word divorce was thrown around so often I felt absolutely nothing when I heard it. The objects being thrown around and broken, my heartbeat speeding up and chest tightening when I hear loud noises, or when the wind makes sounds like drunken wails. The day I swore I’d never ever ever touch alcohol as I cleaned up drunken vomit. Ears listening close to conversations in the other room to sense the tone, sometimes mistaking louder conversations for arguments. Months of silent treatment. Feeling absolutely no love for my dad. Conflicted feelings about my mom.

a mother is a person who will hear you say you’ve had a hard time doing a thing since you were a kid (due to a lifelong disabling condition), that you’ve been struggling for decades, and reply, “well if that’s the case then why haven’t you figured it out yet”

You will think I am an alright person unless you see me go completely non-verbal around my parents and start to wonder where this laconic person came from.
