Adult child of dysfunction
Hello,
im an adult child of a very dysfunctional family.
I really don’t know what to say about it at the moment.
there’s a LOT I could say…
im dealing with PTSD to this day from things that happened.
I wish things were different between my family and I.
but it’s not. And I want to/need to accept that.
it’s just hard. I miss the connection I had when I didn’t realize how dysfunctional it all was. But now that I’ve tried to get healthy I am being ostracized. 🤷♀️ it’s painful, but at least I know where I stand.

Sorry you are dealing with PTSD, would that be of things from the family?
What would you like different between you and your family?
Knowing where you are is critical. And you are not alone in this.
We all have different perspectives and experiences to draw from. I too have been ostracized, but for me, I still to this day (decades), do not understand where or why.
But like you, I accepted it and like you, it hurts.
Proud of you to take the steps to care for you and make yourself healthy.
@AguaNector6700 good work! it takes a lot of courage to take the steps you are taking. hats off to you 💪
