I hate myself

Its so funny that your own family gaslights you and when you get frustrated they start blaming you

The good thing about being an adult is that you get to choose who stays and who needs to go in your life

I know that feeling. Don't hate yourself, that's what they want. Hate them and cut them off. It gets better 🖤

They are only displaying their own weaknesses, but I feel for you.... I feel I have bridged a few relationships in family in my life, maybe not entirely healed, but one day my nephew wanted to sit with me and tell me how much he hated how his mother (my sister) talked about me, I cautioned him, you know you are talking about your mother, my sister, there are things that you can't unsay. It's common and sad siblings and family talk down to another in family. I wonder what my sister would have thought if her son was confiding in me his sensitivities, as he understood me as sensitive?

I hope this passes for you. It has for me.

Theres nothing quite as personally heartbreaking as an abusive family

I have one too. Cant fix it either. None of them will condescend to talk to me.

Stop that! You are the only self you have. Sometimes, families are cruel and toxic and need to be cut loose.

It could be gaslighting, or it could be an aversion to drama.
I'm sorry they treat u that way. U shouldn't hate urself, but just hate the way they make u feel about urself.
U can't control how others treat u, but u can control them having access to ur life and being allowed to make u have self doubt and self loathing. Remove urself from their reach. Choose to be around people who love and care about u.

That's pretty toxic

You don’t have to believe a word that they say especially when it comes to gaslighting. Need to guard your tongue too….you live with yourself and shouldn’t hate yourself.

Ah, family. The only people I help unconditionally while imagining their murders.

@SW-User ouch 💔

@Deadgirl too much?

That's why you gotta get rid of your family, cut em off, run away, just no more family contact!!! They're no good.
Please I know it's tough but don't get emotional. Pick up a career and follow it
