[quote=Anonymous]I grew up with a parent like this and it was misery. My dad left (and more or less left us): I was parentified at a young age and developed my own anxiety coping mechanisms (anorexia perfectionism anxiety attacks). I fortunately was able to overcome much of this (there are still scars) but I think it broke my sibling, who is in their mid 50s and unable to connect with anyone because he freaks out around any show of emotion at all and shuts down. Op you have to get spouse to deal with this but also get your kids therapy now. Living with this corrodes your confidence and years later even as a functional adult I still can’t trust my judgment at times because I don’t want to catastrophize but also don’t want to ignore (usually with health related things which was a huge source of my moms anxiety).
