It's not your drunken behaviour that led to regret. it's your drunken behaviour that's causing it all. Try not being a drunk, then ask the same questions try to say the same things come back and do this again, ask yourself do you think it would be the same?

@Dubbup what do you mean?

I don’t regret telling my father what I told him while drunk.

Why? Because it was the truth. Reading just this post, you wouldn’t understand the situation I’m in with my father and our relationship.

That’s what I was trying to get at because if it had been any other conversation while drunk with some other person, I definitely would’ve regretted it.

@Dubbup This isn’t a situation where chaos started once alcohol entered the picture. My father was no innocent angel and doesn’t drink at all. He has an ugly past that’s been ugly for several years before I ever took that first drink. I wasn’t some normie. I was mentally disturbed due to his behavior all my youth.

In fact me and my mom found my father’s temperament way better on the very few occasions that my dad did drink.

Which was about 2 times a year on average.

You can still stop carrying all the anger and hate as well as moving out.

You don't have to stay living there regardless of if you are ready to forgive him or not. All children reach the point where they are ready to fly the nest and experience life on their own terms.

It just might mean that you'll have more pleasant experiences when you return home to visit your parents, that's all.

@HootyTheNightOwl oh yeah, I’m definitely leaving soon. That’s the plan, and I know with this new job I’ll be able to. I’m ready and starting to stabilize mentally. I used to try getting sober but never addressing the trauma. This time I’m acknowledging the deeper roots too.
