How do you process the trauma you have been through? I wanted to do laundry tonight but I can't focus because I am so emotionally overwhelmed. :( rant - My dad was the stay-at-home parent while my mom worked, and my dad neglected my siblings and I, severely. He very hardly paid any attention to us. There is such a long list of sad memories. He also criticized us a lot. I feel like I would be much more healed if he took accountability for what he's done but he doesn't and he just has too much pride and narcissistic tendencies. I'm so frustrated at him. I told him recently.

        @IndigoBro thank you ❤️ I told him "It'll take humility but it's probably worth it if you don't want me to want to stop spending time with you". I sent it in a message

      Are you literally me? The exact same stuff happened to me as a kid. Going to therapy has been helping me, I want to try EMDR as well where you repeat traumatic memories, but with a more positive outcome. Reach out if you'd like to talk
