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 🌷

I don’t believe that. I’m cautious with self help books.

In my case, my parents were dead before I was able to heal. They couldn’t heal, but I can, regardless of the positive and negative influence.

You can regard your parents for their part in your life, but you learn better when you think for yourself and do what you love, for you alone.

As others have said too, they aren’t your responsibility.
