[quote=Anonymous]Op again. Carrying the shame of being from a bad family is overwhelming sometimes. It's not just that I had to spend years overcoming the pain of not being loved by my family, but I also had to work hard to overcome the patterns of abuse that seemed comfortable to me for years. I had to find a whole new way to be in my skin, and to learn how to meet and maintain relationships with people that were so different from everyone I had ever grown up with. I've struggled with questions about estrangement. Was what he did "bad enough"? Would it do me more damage than good to never see him again? I don't have the answers to these questions yet, but I do really appreciate advice. It's a profound struggle, and I feel like I don't have anyone to talk to about this. [/quote]
