Re: Family estrangement and the holidays.

[(Anonymous)]

I hope you get to see your more civilised relatives. It's nice to have a few of those: cherish them! Mine have had the narrative controlled by my other relatives. So.

Christmas for me is tough. Almost all the family cut me off because they think a chronically ill person living alone should be looking after a nonagenarian parent, leaving them to enjoy themselves. So I'm out in the cold (not a new sensation for me.) Last year I got round it by going on a cruise to the sub-Antarctic. This year, no such luck, and after a brush with cancer that's doubly hard. I'll get through it, I guess.

Friends are great but they're doing family stuff at Christmas, rightly so. I wish I was well enough to still have cats.

Losing your relatives to other toxic relatives is pretty common from what I hear. I'm not entirely sure myself that I'll still be able to maintain a relationship with the family members who are decent. In my experience, an interruption in the family dynamic like this makes it awkward for everyone and people tend to ghost you rather than confront it or discuss it. It's disappointing.

I'm sorry you won't be going on a cruise or some other getaway, because that sounds like a really nice way to put some distance between oneself and difficult family. I hope you at least have some peace this holiday, and are able to see your friends afterwards.

I hope you manage to hang on to your decent rellies. Even one or two can make all the difference. If not, there's always the internet, and friends in unexpected places.

It's quite a wise insight, that families tend to form a circle to exclude the one who doesn't conform\comply. It makes me feel a little better about the process I'm undergoing right now.

Yep, being able to get right away, especially doing something awesome, and especially being looked after while doing it, does make a difference. I was lucky to be able to do it even once. And friends are around, and some of them have similar problems, and one of them has invited me to their in-laws' old place on the local lakes next month, so that will be nice. Might even see dolphins.

My very best wishes for a peaceful and restorative Christmas for yourself, anon!
