I Have a Dysfunctional Family

My Family Is Either Crazy Or They Just Have No Filter When They Speak... [b]I don't know where to even start, my family is just dysfunctional. Full of alcoholics and abusive people, and they sometimes seem religious to the extreme. They are all pretty much in denial about any of the alcoholism in the family. Around two years ago, I had to get the cops called on my mom for assaulting me, and her entire family turned on me, saying "you don't call the cops on family, even if they hit you" Which they didn't believe my mom had done anything. Oh, the girl my cousin married, used to be my friend, but when all that went down she and her mother were talking crap about me and stabbing me in the back basically, every single thing they said was complete and total crap. Um, well there is also the most recent thing, my uncles viewing. He died this past Thursday, and went to the viewing seen everyone and talked. Well I was trying to make my way up to my Aunt and two cousins (his wife and two daughters), to see how they were holding up, and handling his death, well the wife answered me and then proceeded to ask "if I had gotten that job yet." Then his daughter was next, asked the same and got the typical answer, well she then proceeded to give me a lecture about how I needed to take care of my mother and make her eat and blah blah blah. Some people who read this are going to think i'm some cold heartless person, but I'm not. My mother is dying of cirrhosis, which she could have avoided!!!! She got out and rehab, about three weeks sober, then drank herself nearly to death in two months and gave herself end stage cirrhosis. But her family seems to think I need to take care of her now and that she may get cranky and blah blah but I need to do it. Oh and some woman who I guess I'm technically related to by marriage, every single time that woman seen me she kept harassing me too, saying you need to take care of your mother, she's your only mother, as if I didn't know that, and then went on some rant about how she was born in May and I was too and that daughters born in May take care of their mothers, and she pretty much kept repeating that, and then one of the last times I ran into her at the viewing, she told me that she meant what she said and that she was gonna whip me if I didn't start by the next time she seen me..........trust me she isn't joking. Oh and they all seem to think I have no mind of my own and that I'm not intelligent enough to make decisions of my own. I'm living with people who are trying to help me get crap straight and to keep me away from that drama, they were there quite a bit for me growing up, and helped me get away when my mom was on a binge, my family doesn't like it, I guess because they have to face that they were never there for me no matter how much I tried to get them to be, and they also think I'm being held hostage LOL Honestly I could write a series of books on the dysfunction in this family. :P [/b]
