My family won't take responsibility for anything...

Not allowed to express myself, constant blaming, manipulating, gaslighting, one upping, and put downs...everyday is hell for me. I don't have anyone to talk to, and I always wake up with suicidal thoughts...it's debilitating, but I don't really have the guts to do it.

My narcissistic family won't take responsibility for anything, especially the things that could turn you into a much stronger person. They've cut corners...manipulating people to do things for them, and that's how they've always overcame their hardships in life. They're fine throwing away a relationship just to prove they're right, and they've proved that again, and again by making me the scapegoat/black sheep of the family. I understand they have their own problems, and it's easy for them to ask me a favor, but when I ask a favor, everyone just points fingers, and expects me to do things for them.

I'm tired of being the responsible and sensible one in the family. I believe in teamwork in a family system but no one in my family believes that...they would throw you under the bus to save themselves, it's all about what benefits them.

I get migraine, tremors, and heart palpitations when under stress...I'm so tired and I just can't deal with all this crap anymore. My family slowly pushes me to make suicide a liable option but like I said, I just can't do it. I just feel like I'm dying everyday...

Cut all ties with them & build a new life they will soon find another scapegoat.

Move away pretend they dont exsist dont tell them anything even where you live.

Im also in the same position but I chose to go limited contact..limited contact doesnt really work as they always find a way to draw you back in.

Its really not you its them they lack self esteem so they steal yours. Shaming blaming,lying, twisting things, involving others in lying about you.
Kick the suicide thoughts to the kerb and start planning a new life. Get living again you never know whats in store X
