My Unsent Letter

1 week ago · 1 · Depression, +3


44

To someone who cares:

At my mom's funeral, my father, my sister and me were nowhere near each other. We were each comforted by relatives separately. 2 weeks after mom's death, my sister and I had an intense argument with I our father. So we left home. My sister went back after a month. I've been living in our 2nd house 2 hours away for almost a year. I haven't spoken to my father since tried to force his way in my old room out of anger at me screaming at him: FACE THE CONSEQUENCES [of your long-term infidelity with a married woman, bastard child, and legal falsification].

I'd advice every woman in a relationship with a womanizer--never commit! Even if you get pregnant! Stupidly, my mom married the man who knocked her up. Idk if she found out before or after the wedding but this man was previously married: his first wife sued him for psychological problems and got a significant amount.

I wish he wasn't my father. I hate that I live in a house under his name. Every month, I pay bills and they're under his name. Because this 2nd house is his.

...

There's details of my life I'm ashamed to mention even anonymously.

I wish I was born and raised differently. I feel disempowered most of the time. I wish I was born a man.

I kinda hate the higher power who let me experience all this pain. I try to think that other people have it worse. But I still go back to the same though patterns of self-criticism, self-hatred, helplessness, despair and suicidal ideation.

    It will do you a great deal of good to see a therapist so that you get help to work through these thought patterns and put them behind you. I picked up a lot of anger too from your post. It isn't your fault that your father is like this and because you are living in his house and pay bills that are under his name you haven't had the chance to distance yourself from him. If you can move right away and be as far away from him as possible, have nothing to do with him, and see him as a shadow in your past these thoughts will eventually stop. However, the therapist should help you more than I can but you must put in some work too. All the best.

    Fake smiles, fake supportive comments, fake reassurance and fake love. It's all fake. It's not genuine, they don't care at all. No matter how many times I s...

    My life is slowly emptying. Last year I lost my mother. The year before I lost my partner. My friends are few and I feel unworthy of them. I’m so dissatisfied...
