[quote=Anonymous]OP here and just catching up on thread. Yes HUGE hugs to everyone in the same situation. I can't agree more with the last few PPs talking about realizing that most people just do not understand this and assume that because they have some dysfunction or issues in their family, it's the same as simply having zero support from your family. I think often people just don't even hear it because it's so foreign to them. They just assume it's similar to their own struggles with family, since most people have at least some. And if you try to make that distinction, it can come off like you're saying their challenges don't matter, which I'm not. But it means most friends just go on with this false impression that my family is a lot like their family and just never pick up on the fact that my family is not actually present in my life at all.

It's really cathartic to hear from other people who feel the same way and have the same experiences. It's just good to know I'm not totally alone in it.[/quote]
