Parents who don't take your feelings seriously

Post Reply New Topic

My mother blamed me for the bullying.....

Mine takes it too seriously yet done little with it.

And as much as they are concerned, they're also helpless about it. Too clueless to understand. Not reliable enough.

Any attempt of discussion just ends up in frustration because there are no solutions known or available.


So expressing it would be just as pointless if not bothersome.
Learnt to just take the matters with my own hands and with little interferences possible.

Or even never let them know what I intend to better myself at all -- because they'll took it too seriously and likely wouldn't understand...

So most of my guides are either outside their contacts, or ones I trusted enough not to let them know.

Growing up I never shared anything bad that happened to me or how I felt about anything, because I knew I'd get shrugged off as "overreacting" and "spoiled". Hours long, screaming lectures about my parents abuse and how I don't know what it's like to actually be in danger/depressed/traumatized/etc. etc. were guaranteed if I opened up about anything.

I was even told on multiple occasions when I was suicidal and trying to get help, with my mother aggressively in my face, that if I was actually suicidal I wouldn't have told anyone, and I'd just do it.

Now my parents wonder why I'm very reluctant to say anything about anything to them, and they like to pretend none of that ever happened. I don't even like going to therapy either, because I was always coached to never mention anything they did and they always lied and helped make the sh***y therapists not believe anything I said about anything.
