If you haven't read it, I'd recommend "Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents." There are way too many people in the world that can relate to what you're going through, myself and my wife included. It's a huge problem.

i have heard of it but i haven’t felt ready to read it yet, after getting this off my chest it’s helped me to start processing everything so i think it might be time to give it a read :)

Thank you for this reminder of how not to be.

I’m sure your mums way had it’s own warped reasoning, I like to round up those things…. But damn.

Thanks for sharing and showing what anti role model behavior can look like ❤️

Yes I have had a few anti role model behaviors in my life!

Sometimes if you don’t know what you want, looking at what you DONT want can point you in the right direction
