Blog About Toxic Parents

nothing more attractive than a man who teaches you things without making you feel like you’re dumb for not knowing it already

abusive parents in private: just look at yourself, you'll never fucking amount to anything, do you think someone will want you like that? Do you think you'll ever be successful? You need to start living in the real world, you're a fucking failure and pathetic waste of space, ungrateful little monster, you should be beaten and forced to work for us every single day of your life, we've been too easy on you, should have abused you more.

abusive parents in front of relatives and guests: oh, we worry about that child so much! we do what we can but we're still concerned- /continue talking about the child like they know what they're going thru and identify outer factors as the cause for child's stress and pain(just look what a lovely worried parents we are, it's obvious from our act we can never be responsible for the obvious trauma symptoms on this kid right?)

Controllers, abusers and manipulative people don’t question themselves. They don’t ask themselves if the question is them. They always say the problem is someone else.

Shoutout to everyone dealing with emotionally abusive family. You’ll get outta that place some day. Don’t be discouraged.

Does anyone else just suddenly realize at random moments that they were abused. Even long after you “know” about it, just those moments of clarity where all those voices in your head that tell you, you’re exaggerating, you’re being overly sensitive, you’re blowing it out of proportion just suddenly go silent and youre sitting there with your symptoms and your evidence and you’re like “wow this was not ok, none of this was ok and really bad, fucked up things actually happened to me”.

The worst kinds of people are the abusers who act like the victim.

“Looking at childhood pictures shouldn’t make you feel like someone is ripping your heart out”

good parents dont hit their children. good parents dont touch their children inappropriately. good parents dont scream at their children. good parents dont manipulate their children. good parents dont imprison their children at home. good parents dont threaten their children. good parents dont starve their children. good parents dont harass their children.

good parents do not abuse their children.

being a college kid with an abusive household

(these are my experiences, but feel free to add onto your own because these are definitely not all of them!!)

it sucks because you dread breaks because maybe even if your abusers aren’t abusing you still, your house reminds you of when they did and you’re constantly triggered

and if they are still abusive you get thrown back into the pattern of fight or flight that you’ve worked SO HARD to stop at college

you’re also constantly Not Relating to your friends/peers who are counting down the days until break and you just sit there in silent anxiety dreading hearing that number count down

people constantly hearing you talk about your parents and going “yeah my parents are annoying too I hate them!” and meanwhile you think “if only you knew”

or you never talk about your parents and people ask and you don’t know how to answer them without making things seem Bad

when all of your friends call their parents for emotional support after a stressful day, you go to bed early and blast sad music, wishing your parents would be the same way

your friends ask you “what did they do this time?” when they see you upset (if you’ve told them about your parents)

SUMMER BREAK IS HELL

WINTER BREAK IS HELL

trying to find a job that keeps you away from home as much as possible

trying to decide whether to be there over the summer for your sibling who is still in your parents’ house or getting a job as far away as possible from them

Mood Drops when they call/text you

DONT FUCKING HAVE CHILDREN IF YOU CANT TOLERATE THEM ‘ANNOYING’ YOU OR MAKING YOU ANGRY DONT TREAT THEM LIKE FUCKING VENTING BAGS AND EXPECT THEM TO LOVE YOUR FUCKING MANIPULATIVE ASS THEYRE HUMANS. JUST LIKE YOUR COLLEAGUES FRIENDS OR RELATIVES START TREATING THEM LIKE YOU WOULD TO THOSE SAID PERSONS
