Re: I don't even know anymore

I'm sorry to say this, since it sounds like you're an adult by this time, but the fact is your Dad isn't going to change. If he's as old as he is and still acts like that, he's going to keep acting like that.

He sounds quite a bit like my dad, in that when he gets stressed/angry/worried about something, it amps up his already antisocial behavior. A lot of the time he isn't trying to be hurtful or malicious to me, he's just trying to blow off steam and doesn't have the self control to stop himself.

Chances are you won't be able to "talk" to him and get him to see reason and treat you differently. If your mom has any sway in how he does things, ask her to talk to him about it, it might give him something to think about.

Having parents who yell at you, degrade you, and use physical violence around you is hard to cope with. I understand, because it's hard for me to cope with.

Basically, you have to figure out on your own whether or not you'll be able to accept that this is just who your father is, or if it's something you feel you have to get away from.

Even though my dad can be difficult to deal with, I come back because I know they need my help with their business. I know they love me, despite the hurtful shit they say to me, and I've come to just accepting the fact that I'm not going to have a conventionally loving relationship with them.
