[quote=Anonymous]I can totally relate OP. I have only this year managed to say that I'll no longer take the invective and abuse that gets hurled at me. All the guilt and manipulation for sympathy, all the blame, all the invectives about I'm the reason my sister is so ill and I've turned my back on her, and on and on and on... We grew up in a terribly abusive household, w/ lots of mental illness, and somehow I emerged as a functional adult without addictions. I have plenty of demons, which I've been working on in therapy for years, but I also have a career and family and a pretty happy stable life. But I get blamed for everyone else's struggles. It's totally unfair, inappropriate, and a symptom of the rampant dysfunction. So I relate. Good for you for putting some boundaries in place and holding to them. Really it's the only thing you can do, and it's definitely the best thing for you. Sending you so many hugs and solidarity vibes![/quote]
