[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Telling your cousins implies that you want them on your side. Imagine if they don’t choose your side, will you be hurt/mad/judge mental ? My advice is to avoid your parents and keep your thoughts private or find a therapist.[/quote] I agree with this advice. I am one of 5 siblings who was raised in a dysfunctional family (alcoholism, abuse, infidelity, neglect). I realized I was affected by my childhood experiences and sought out therapy. I attempted to discuss with my siblings, mostly to get details straight and it didn't go well, to say the least. Distance yourself from your parents, if you think that will lower your distress and seek the counsel of a therapist or your religious advisor.[/quote]
