I cut out a bunch of so called family. If they make you miserable, anxious, feel sick, physically sick, are bad for your mental health, dangerous cut them out. If they truly loved you they would understand. I started with my therapist she said to ask my deadbeat male parental adult for some space maybe a week or 2. No communication, calls, texts, emails, posts, no seeing each other. I really could see the effects having any contact with him had on me. Any progress I would make would disappear anytime I had contact with him. I asked for the space and time, he didn't want to. Then disregarded my wishes, continued to contact me, bombard me. I told him if he didn't stop, I would stop all communication permanently. He didn't believe me or care. Never spoken with him since.

I've had to completely cut off talking to my Grandmother about what hours on in my life after i confided in her about a very traumatic event i was STILL PROCESSING. she told the ENTIRE family about it the next day. Everyone looks at me with pitty in their eyes and ruin family events by crying about it or just bringing it up and apologizing to me. I learned way too late that she is too "caring" enough to body shame my cousin right infront of everyone at Christmas behind her back. I would have realized my boundaries come first a long time ago. It's never too late to realize these things and for you to take steps in the right direction for your health. Stay strong and try to stay positive. The hurt doesn't go away but the sting fades with time love 💕
@Zozzy not a problem at all thanks for that

Good for you I couldn't agree more wirh you I've started having to do the same, you should always come first x
@BeeMarrie thank you it's not been the easiest choice or decision at all
I agree, your well being is important and if that means you have to do that then do it! I am having to cut ties with my brother right now so I can relate so much! My family and myself have to protect our well being and my brother is causing issues with that in a big way!
