I was born into a house with an absent father and drug addicted mother who used up until I was about 16. I don’t really remember anything happy when thinking back it was mostly just guilt trips from my mother about how I can’t be mad or hold her accountable because shes my mother
I was raised without “love” AMA

I’m so sorry you went through that. How are you doing today?
How did you come out of this??
Do you still have a relationship with your mother?
Have you developed any diagnosed/suspected mental illness or disorders from this abuse?
And have you yourself taken on any bad behaviour as a coping mechanism?
I feel like we’d be genuine friends. Have you been to therapy and if so what kind? I’m almost 30 now and did EMDR for about 6 months last year and it’s helped with flashbacks and being caught in a void of the past. Hope you’re doing well today.
Is your Mom sober now?
Have you had spouses? How do you tend to give and receive love in a relationship?
