[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hugs OP. No advice, just commiseration. It took me such a long time to rise above my upbringing and some days it just feels pointless. I hold on to the certainty that my daughters will never have the deep fear of me that I have of my own mother. They are starting from a much different place in life and it’s actually such a gift, please try to remember that[/quote] I’m not the OP, but thank you for this. I have risen above, broken the cycle, and done everything to close the chapter of my unusual upbringing. But it’ll always sting, more so around the holidays. Nothing really makes that little hole in my heart fade away. I married into a family fraught with mental illness and depression, so it makes much of the work I have done to feel pointless. A fun, relaxed day with extended family members feels like a lottery I’ll never win. [/quote] Being the one to break the pattern is necessary but lonely sometimes. Hugs OP.[/quote]
