I hate tht everyone in my fam doesn’t seem to understand what my mom went thru/what my dad put her thru & how tht shaped how she acts. She’s an adult yes but why am I the only one that can see what trauma can do to ppl. Like how r they just ignoring tht

Ppl react to what they can see and experience more than what savors that moment, they’re not looking big picture

Their reality is a delusion to protect their ego

I actually don’t understand it either. I think some people just can’t understand it for some reason. Like I met this one guy who was blind af to why people act the way they do even himself

I think it stems from childhood trauma too. They’re still seeking my dad’s approval but my mom never withheld love from them so they don’t feel the need to do the same with her. It’s just insane to me that I’m the youngest yet I’m the only one in the fam who seems to understand everyone’s trauma almost better themselves

I’m in a similar situation I’m the black sheep for calling out abusive behavior and my siblings ignore what happened to them to appease my father. I totally get that

It’s actually the worst 😭 I can barely stand spending time with my fam cuz i notice everything & how it all trickles down to them taking out their emotions on me rather than directing it towards the original perpetrator & yet somehow I’m always the bad guy
