@revenant what I’m interpreting is that you didn’t feel free to experience your childhood in a way that felt right and made sense to you, barred from autonomy. Is that right?
What do you think would be some advice you wish your parents had taken as regards how to treat you?
@revenant I’d wager you’re similarly unchanging in a way, yes? Would you say you somewhat define yourself in opposition to things rather than in favor of them?
@revenant also totally understand that, my parents are the same way, and that sickness and toxicity that comes with those traits is the reason they’re not in our lives.
