Sometimes I get really depressed when I see other people my age meeting their adult milestones/successes( love, marriage, building a family, career, going in trips etc.) because deep down I know I will never have that . Every single day I have to work through my mental illness and childhood PTSD and it can be very draining an overwhelming. I don't really have the time or energy to build the life that I want because I have to live from day to day in order to maintain a balanced mental state. For a long time I was in denial about how irreversibly damaging my childhood/adolescent years were. I thought I could just block it out and move on. I don't know if I'll ever be happy but at least I'm trying. Please take the time to cultivate and love your children in order to appropriately prepare them to be successful adults. Not meeting certain milestones can destroy their ability to function as adults. Arrested development is serious and life altering in a terrible way.
In this entry I discuss the pain of growing up in a household with family members with addictions and the long term destruction it causes within family dynamics. I am in this completely alone and that's more then ok because I am healing and no longer maintaining toxic attachments🤎. |
