If you replace the Narcissistic mother with an insufferably negative and judgemental person, does that count?
Sounds like a narcissist
Lol
No need to sum up my childhood.
I even planned on dying at 18. Just turns out that all the drug prevention lectures were wrong and no one just hands you drugs. This shit is expensive.
Pretty sure my dad is partially emotionally stunted due to being autistic and because of parents who weren’t always the greatest. But that’s something I’ll never truly have an answer to considering he refuses to get tested for it and his insistence he wouldn’t have been allowed in the military if he was autistic.
I’m 9999% positive he’s the reason I have it.
Ha, joke’s on you!. My father is a narcissist, my mother was emotionally stunted, and I…
I’M GONNA FUCKING LIVE FOREVER, BITCH!
I don’t appreciate being called out like this. Especially that last line. I’ve been expecting to die soon for nearly 30 years now and for some reason I’m still chugging along. Wtf.
just din’t have kids
Nope, doesn’t match me.
To be fair, it wasn’t for lack of trying that I didn’t die young. I did all the drugs, but somehow I got past 27 anyway.
You and me both. My husband and I thought we’d be out before 40 and now we don’t know what to do with ourselves
I haven’t even had breakfast yet dude
Holy shit
Wow called out
My father was both, so my mom turned out ok I think. And it’s not that I didn’t expect to still be alive, so much as I hadn’t really fully conceptualized life in my 30s and 40s? It was as foreign a concept to me as what happens in a story after the “happily ever after” and the credits roll. What do you mean, what happens next? Story’s over. And I have even less of an idea now of what to do with myself than I did then, I just know that a plucky attitude and a “well, I’ll figure it out somehow” didn’t do the trick.
Fuuuuuuuuuck. I feel bad for all of us. We don’t deserve this. We can be good, kind, and loving. Also as weird and wonderful as we want.
So no one told you life was gonna be this way
They should have. Not a day goes by where I don’t curse my parents for bringing me into this lonely capitalist hellscape. A head’s up would have been appreciated.
Eh. My mom and dad are really cool and pretty progressive people. But my mom has terrible anxiety and my dad has adhd. Guess who got both?
