All of the self help material and psychology that I'm reading

they all agree that when you're healed, the relationships with your parents will heal. I just had a call with my dad but it felt like there has been no progress whatsoever. He began shouting at me out of nowhere but since I'm far from that, it sounded really awkward. I was intending to tell him about the martial arts competition but I didn't say anything.
I wouldn't like to risk any comment that would spoil my achievement, as his regulars.
I was hoping for something better.
I guess, let's move on 🌷

It doesn’t matter what you do or how much you change sometimes it will never change the fact that someone is toxic.

Sometimes in life it’s in our best interest to distance ourselves from certain people even if we love them and they are family

@DeluxedEdition sadly yes, to finally stop being sad. It's a black hole over there, sucking any light in.

@SW-User it isn’t your responsibility to repair your relationship with your dad. You’re his child. He needs to heal himself and do better

Also I’m so sorry you have to go through this no one deserves this. Parents are supposed to be loving and supportive
