Quick backstory. Growing up my family looked a typical suburban white upper middle class family. Despite this aesthetic, both my parents were verbally abusive and my mom would hit me and dig her finger nails into my arms whenever she would get upset at me. I would sometimes go to school with bloody wrists and forearms from where she would grab me. In the past she had slapped me across the face, thrown my model cars and legos at me, and so on.

Fast forward to when I was in middle school, my parents get a divorce and Im forced to live with my mom. After several horrific years living with her I moved in with my dad, which to my surprise was just as bad of a living situation. From 13-17 I had the worst years of my life. I was depressed every day, had zero self confidence, and both of my parents were contributing to my mental collapse and depression. I eventually turned things around during the last year of high school, made some quality friends, and began loving life again. I owe the current man I am today to those experiences I had when I was 17-18.

When I was 22 I moved out permanently and my relationship with both my parents improved ten fold. I would speak to them on the phone nearly every day, I regularly got lunch with my mom, and my relationship with my siblings was solid.

However, this all changed a couple years ago when my sister had a situation occur with my moms boyfriend, causing her to run out of the house and moving in with my dad. My sister and mom do not have a talking relationship from this point on.

During Christmas of 202 my mom and I get into a large fight regard a large sum of money that I lost in investments. The argument was so bad that I left her place and ended my vacation early. I have since only spoken to her on the phone 3 times in the last year.

My brother decided 6 months ago that he will not talk to me unless I maintain a relationship with my mom. Him and I only exchange shallow texts on holidays and birthdays nowadays. We used to talk often through text, send each other memes, videos, talk about music. We were somewhat close.

Shortly after my brother stopped talking to me, my sister began seeing a therapist and she remembered a memory she had suppressed since the age of 4. She says my brother would do things with her when she was 3-4 and he was 10-11. Around 13 years ago my sister originally brought this up to my family and it caused some awkward tension, but the situation kind of.fizzled out. Sadly, everyone moved on like it never happened. Hell, I even forgot that it happened. In the rare times the situation popped in my head, I would think of it like a strange dream that never actually happened. Its not like I could talk with my parents about it, the subject was so taboo. But now the cat is out of the bag. My stepmom does not want my brother to see my sister, my dads relationship with him is fractured, and I dont talk with him.

I dont talk with my mom.

My relationship with my sister was improving the last couple years, but tonight she threw that all away so now were not on good terms.

My grandmas dementia is so bad that she forgot my name after singing me happy birthday on the phone, and mentioning my name during the song.

It feels like I only have a connection with my dad as of now. When I was growing up I had this big family with many distant relatives in the picture, and somehow I lost all of that. This really sucks.

I didn't read all that, but family are people who support you throughout your life, not necessarily the ones your directly blood-linked to. I consider my best friend to be like a brother to me, as he's helped me out with a ton of things in my life, meanwhile my aunt who isn't blood-related but related through marriage, accused my adoptive father of some pretty nasty things. We don't talk to her side of the family anymore.

I asked why her and my dad havent visited me in the 2 years that Ive lived in Norcal. She said it works both ways and I could visit them too, but I was just in Arizona to visit them 6 months ago. It felt like such a backhanded thing to say to me, especially since it was my birthday and they were choosing to go on a road trip for the weekend instead of seeing me.

And for the record, my brother had my sister give him oral when he was between 11-13 years old and she was 4-6 years old.

This might not be the best place to open your heart... But I can relate... After our mom passed away I was cleaning her room and found the police records of what my brother did to my sister. I didnt read, only skimmed, never knew the details cause it was treated like no big deal...

He's in prison for doing similar stuff to his neighbor's daughter. Mom died believing he was framed. I dunno what to think. We kept in touch till I found the papers but now Ive just kinda gone awkwardly silent. Kinda wanna destroy'em but maybe I shouldn't? Don't really wanna bring it up to my sister...

No offense, but not reading the topic and replying with some generic BS that Ive heard many times over doesnt do anything for me.

One of my aunts was a full on schizophrenic who during the same day threatened my entire family and also questioned why no one wanted to be around her. My other aunt, was a psychopath who tried to sue my entire family because we put flowers on my grandfathers grave.

The first 3 woman I'd ever gone on dates with were complete nutjobs that turned me off from dating for a good few years. The first one during our 3rd date proceeded to flip out at me when I gave her a rose, threatened to make me disappear if I ever cheated on her, and when I told her to get out of my car, asked me to come back to her place to get her pregnant. All in the same conversation.

Meanwhile my best friends wife took him to therapy convincing him that he was depressed and that same therapist prescribed him medication for depression, all the while she was having sex with a co-worker that was selling her weed. This same woman after he found out and divorced her attempted to sue him for half the stuff he owned, not realizing that she signed a prenup. She then asked him over the phone to pay for 50 percent of the lawyers bills, which obviously he laughed at. He's doing much better now.

This doesn't even touch what happened with his mother, which is by far more messed up.

Are any of these as bad as what you listed? absolutely not. But we all have our demons. Talk to a therapist. They are paid as an impartial medium to listen to you and give you their thoughts on the matter and believe you me, if you find a good one, they are extremely effective at providing you advice that can and will change your life. I've had to use one in the past and it helped me out a ton during a very depressing time in my life, the same one told me to cut the negative influences out of my life that were affecting me personally.

...Bro, what the fuck

Trust me... she wasn't the first nutjob. There was about 4 women that turned me off from dating for a good 6-7 years. I'm an introvert by nature, so having to deal with clashing personalities just isn't good for me.

I went on a date with a girl where she brought her friend. I didn't think much of it. And it went fine the first date, though there was a bit of a warning that I didn't pay much attention to, which was that she smoked when her messages to me said she didn't. We went to see a movie. Didn't talk to her until a couple days later when she messaged me asking to drop by my place as she was at a party and things got out of hand, and she didn't feel comfortable going home. So she dropped over and stayed the night (I didn't sleep with her, lord knows I wanted to). In the middle of making out, she literally went into a full on seizure, which passed after half a minute, but I gave her a blanket/pillow and she fell asleep on my living room floor.

So I went to bed, woke up and she was passed out on my couch. Later that day she apologized, and she hung out with me until the next night it happened again. This time it didn't pass, and the ambulance was called. I find out from the EMT that she was having a full on Alcohol induced seizure. Do you have any idea how much booze you have to drink to have one of those? That wasn't even the most fucked up part. At some point during the day when I wasn't watching her, she downed half a 40 of Vodka that I had in my cupboard (which I use for mix). Didn't ask me if she could have my liquor. EMTs went through her purse for ID, only to find 4 different IDs with 4 different names/addresses on them.

They bring her to the hospital (we live in Canada, its free), and she has the nerve the next morning to check herself out by telling the nurse that I was going to be picking her up. I literally told her that wasn't happening and that was the last I saw of her, outside of getting my shirt back from her, which she slept in.

Too bad too.... she was easily a 9/10. 5'6, Goth and a very nice body.

Trust me... she wasn't the first nutjob. There was about 4 women that turned me off from dating for a good 6-7 years. I'm an introvert by nature, so having to deal with clashing personalities just isn't good for me.

I went on a date with a girl where she brought her friend. I didn't think much of it. And it went fine the first date, though there was a bit of a warning that I didn't pay much attention to, which was that she smoked when her messages to me said she didn't. We went to see a movie.

Quick backstory. Growing up my family looked a typical suburban white upper middle class family. Despite this aesthetic, both my parents were verbally abusive and my mom would hit me and dig her finger nails into my arms whenever she would get upset at me. I would sometimes go to school with bloody wrists and forearms from where she would grab me. In the past she had slapped me across the face, thrown my model cars and legos at me, and so on.

Fast forward to when I was in middle school, my parents get a divorce and Im forced to live with my mom. After several horrific years living with her I moved in with my dad, which to my surprise was just as bad of a living situation. From 13-17 I had the worst years of my life. I was depressed every day, had zero self confidence, and both of my parents were contributing to my mental collapse and depression. I eventually turned things around during the last year of high school, made some quality friends, and began loving life again. I owe the current man I am today to those experiences I had when I was 17-18.

When I was 22 I moved out permanently and my relationship with both my parents improved ten fold. I would speak to them on the phone nearly every day, I regularly got lunch with my mom, and my relationship with my siblings was solid.

However, this all changed a couple years ago when my sister had a situation occur with my moms boyfriend, causing her to run out of the house and moving in with my dad. My sister and mom do not have a talking relationship from this point on.

During Christmas of 202 my mom and I get into a large fight regard a large sum of money that I lost in investments. The argument was so bad that I left her place and ended my vacation early. I have since only spoken to her on the phone 3 times in the last year.

My brother decided 6 months ago that he will not talk to me unless I maintain a relationship with my mom. Him and I only exchange shallow texts on holidays and birthdays nowadays. We used to talk often through text, send each other memes, videos, talk about music. We were somewhat close.

Shortly after my brother stopped talking to me, my sister began seeing a therapist and she remembered a memory she had suppressed since the age of 4. She says my brother would do things with her when she was 3-4 and he was 10-11. Around 13 years ago my sister originally brought this up to my family and it caused some awkward tension, but the situation kind of.fizzled out. Sadly, everyone moved on like it never happened. Hell, I even forgot that it happened. In the rare times the situation popped in my head, I would think of it like a strange dream that never actually happened. Its not like I could talk with my parents about it, the subject was so taboo. But now the cat is out of the bag. My stepmom does not want my brother to see my sister, my dads relationship with him is fractured, and I dont talk with him.

I dont talk with my mom.

My relationship with my sister was improving the last couple years, but tonight she threw that all away so now were not on good terms.

My grandmas dementia is so bad that she forgot my name after singing me happy birthday on the phone, and mentioning my name during the song.

It feels like I only have a connection with my dad as of now. When I was growing up I had this big family with many distant relatives in the picture, and somehow I lost all of that. This really sucks.

How'd you get into an argument over the finances? Did you ask for money, or something?

I mentioned it earlier but I ended up losing a significant amount of money. She was upset that I didnt mention it sooner, as it happened months earlier.

Im not in the mood for it right now. This is too personal for me and the first time Ive ever opened my heart out like this on CE.

I am sorry. I don't have any words that can help. But this. Take care of you. Don't go into a situation that will hurt or harm you.Mentally or anything else.

I'm sorry that your family hasn't been good to you throughout your life. It's tempting to just say "family ain't shit, go and live your life", but I can understand how despite the hardships and the alienation, you would want to be close to them. Family, for better or for worse, is a connection that you can fall back on.

It sounds like you're really trying, although you realise how toxic their influence and their direct interactions with you have been. That's a hard fucking pill to swallow - I'm sorry, and I hope the realisation hasn't been too destabilizing.

With that being said, all I can really offer beyond what I've already said is something I brought up earlier. Family ain't shit. You're your own person, a completely unique individual, and you need to live your life if the relationship with your family is as toxic as you're saying it is. If this stuff is weighing you down, fuckin cut ties and bail if you can.

I can't speak for the quality of your other relationships, and I get that it's harder to meet new people and make new friends the older you get, but in this case the blood of the covenant seems like it'd be thicker than the water of the womb. You deserve better than to be dragged down by decades of trauma and abuse, capped off by a family unit that to this day is such a source of despair and dysfunction that you're realising there's little to no redeeming qualities to being around them.

Burn your bridges, live your life on your own merits and be free. It may not be a popular choice, people may be upset by it, but you deserve to live your life on your own merits and find happiness the way you want to.

I basically did this with my mom and brother already, but I guess Ill have to do the same with my sister too.

I think one of my best traits is not allowing really negative things affect me long term. Despite having a thin skin and having my fair share of depressive episodes, Im able to find a way to go on having a normal life.
