Dealing with Potential Divorce

TW: physical violence, blood 

So my dad is considering divorce. He told my mom about it and it turned into an argument between them about how my mom isn't responsible enough. Then my brother had to intervene and it turned into an ugly fight between him and my dad. And by ugly I meant my brother physically hurt him. When I saw the aftermath based on seeing the blood on the bathroom floor, I was completely traumatized. My brother doesn't even regret his actions because he said he did what he had to do. This really put my anxiety at an 11 and it doesn't come at a great time since my grandma passed away last week. I am also still trying to find a job.

I am so sorry you have to go through so many traumatising experiences. It sounds like there is a lot of tension at home. You’ve even witnessed unhappiness, blood and the fight is so violent. I can see how much it worries you. Sending my condolences to your grandma. I wish you all the best in finding a job too. Several unfortunate experiences happened to you and I can sense it is very overwhelming.

However, you have the power to be a strong survivor. I put my faith in you.

Are you keen to trying some soothing activities? If yes, name a few if you can

Take care.

I’m so sorry that you are dealing with this. It sounds like a very unstable home environment and I can see how this would increase your anxiety.  What I’m hearing is that your parents were having a disagreement, your brother intervened, and it got physical? Besides this incident, it sounds like you’re also dealing with the stress of being unemployed as well as the recent death of your grandma. I just want you to know that you’re not alone. There is a large community of people who are here for you!
