I will say in advance before you reply just so you don't think I'm ignorant, I don't want to reply back to this thread I'm just hoping to read back on things. If thats okay. Any clarifications can be asked via pm but hopefully you wont need them
I've not spoken about this except to one member of this forum..
I brought my brothers up because my mum had severe depression.Bought them clothes, fed them, etc. I stopped going to school at the time, but still got excellent results because I was 'gifted and talented' and it just sunk in to be honest.
My mum got better. I got older, started higher education, I got a lovely partner and was happy. Mum used to profess she was jealous but in a light heated way.
Mum was always used to people being scared of her. She used this as power. I was TERRIFIED of her when I was a child. But as I grew older I stood up to her unreasonableness. She doesn't like it, she gets mad.
I stood up to her a few weeks ago. This resulted in her punching me. She burst my lip and made my tooth go wobbly. I admit I went to strike her back - the way she has brought me up - but we got split up. I am so ashamed.
I went home.
Since this, I have tried to get in touch with both my mum and my brothers. They;re all ignoring me. It hurts so much. I have tried again and again.
I am so happy with my partner, but feel like something is missing because of my family. My real dad died when I was a child, I dont know if this has something to do with my want of a relationsip.
What do I do?
Its taken a lot for me to write this, because I'e not spoken to anyone. I don't want to reply but I promise I will read. Please reply.
