[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am so sick of people wallowing in self pity.  No one has a perfect parent, not even you are a perfect parent and your children will have complaints about you.

Adults do not live in the past.[/quote]

Do you not believe that trauma is a thing? That our early environments can impact us into adulthood? Because you would be wrong. [/quote]

I also believe that we can get over our trama(s) if we do choose.  My older sister blamed me for our mother's death and used to beat the living daylights out of me.  I made a choice many years ago that I could move on from her and problems.

Those who choose to live in the past have no future. [/quote]

Lol *that* was your trauma? You think that because you got over that, people who from the time they were toddlers were constantly called horrible names by their parents, screamed at all the time, blamed for the parent’s problems, etc should just be able to “get over it” too?

That’s ridiculous and I don’t think you’re over your trauma. Go back to therapy.  [/quote]

Wow, just wow. I'm not that pp, but how dare you judge somebody else's trauma? And then you pile your faux diagnosis on top of it. Some of you are just pot-stirring a$$holes who make me sympathetic to the family members who have to deal with you.[/quote]

Oh no don’t misunderstand. I am not judging her trauma in any way. That sounds terrible! But the idea that she went though what mostly likely is not nearly as traumatic as what others are going through, yet thinks that we can all just get over our traumas if we just “choose” is wrong.

I find it kind of wild that you would i chastise my comment not hers, by the way. She said our early environments should not impact our adulthoods and if they do, it’s just because we are choosing that kind of life. That’s a really cruel thing to say. [/quote]

Stop it. She said her sister "beat the living daylights out of me" and your response is: "Lol *that* was your trauma?" and then you nastily recommended more therapy for her. Ugh.

Again, you shouldn't be getting into the "my trauma is worse than your trauma" game. Nor should you be delivering your unprofessional diagnoses over the interwebs.

While I have tons of compassion for most people on this thread, in your case I'll save my compassion for your family.[/quote]
