both of my parents are bad. my dad was verbally abusive to everyone and physically to mom to the point she had a restraining order YET when i told them both to get a divorce growing up, they refused. they have cheated on each other, lied to each other, and have involved their kids in their manipulation.
Oh my LORD same. I think what’s best is getting a therapist. But also, ppl who gaslight and manipulate are rarely self aware and afraid that they’re the problem. I used to get worried that I was actually the narcissist until my therapist told me that a narcissist would never ever think that way.
