Re: What did you realize in your 30’s?

[(Anonymous)]

This is so relatable. I'm almost the same as you in every point you wrote.

My parents were really emotionally immature when I was growing up and my father had a lot of outbursts of anger, while my mother was emotionally unavailable because of trauma she suffered during her childhood. My aunt was schizophrenic (I loved her, she was very kind and a very good person, but sometimes she was easily triggered into psychosis) and my grandma suffered from Bipolar Disorder and probably BPD.
To survive the unprectability of my family's mood I learned very fast to read people's mood and adjust myself to that. I've always been very socially inept and prefer quitly observe people before I interact. I was like this since I was born, apparently.
I never unlearned that and it created a lot of problems for me because I "put of a mask" with almost everyone without even being aware of that. I prefer being alone most of the time. People tire me. Internet is my safe heaven, but even then sometimes I need to unplug because people are just too much for me.

I recommend reading or just skimming through "Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents: How to Heal from Distant, Rejecting, or Self-Involved Parents" by
Lindsay C. Gibson. This book and therapy really did put some stuff into perspective for me.

I wish you all the best. <3

Thanks for the recs . Though my issue(and my brother's, possibly) was mainly being on the autism spectrum and being very anxious..

I was also pretty heavily bullied throughout school.

I probably should have mentioned that, sorry

AYRT

No worries! I'm not on the autistic spectrum, but it turn out I have ADHD and always had difficulties socializing and understanding other people's emotions and motivations because of that. I suffer from Bipolar Disorder and social anxiety, too. I was also bullied from elementary to the beginning of high school.
So yeah... We probably have some issues in common even if the causes are different. :)
Have a nice day/night!

Hahah yeah looks like we do. Like I know it sounds pretty wild but... (i swear I'm not self diagnosing here) I also have a diagnosis for Bipolar 2 when I was 24. So ... yeah. I'm like a complicated mess of mental conditions and disorders. A weird combo of genetics and the fact I didn't have thyroid function til I was 2 months old.
