It's affecting me, really badly. But I don't want to confront them since I become overwhelmed and overstimulated. I don't want this conflict, I just want this ongoing negative thing to be over. I am always in the middle of it, I used to be the 'mediator', I act like an adult more than them at times. They can't even communicate properly. It's so one-sided that it is driving me crazy. And I know I can move out or whatever, but not at the moment. I am not ready. I don't know how they'll act if I leave. I know it would change the situation, for sure. My dad hides a lot of shit from my mum and she only wants the answers, and my mum tries to involve the kids--but they don't COMMUNICATE. They don't talk and I am sick and tired of it. I just want to study in peace, I am feeling more depressed and lethargic day by day. Having nobody to confide into. Feeling isolated, lonely in my head.

Nobody actually cares.

ReplyDamn seems like everyones having to do that these days
ReplyI’m in a similar situation.
In my case, I gave then all the advice I could (resources on communication, emotional maturity, couples therapy etc) and then stopped bothering when they didn’t use it. They shouldn’t have got married & had kids, really. I think my parents could be much happier if they divorced, had some time to themselves and then moved on to new relationships…but it’s their lives, not mine, and none of my business.
Don’t let them drag you in. It’s their problem, not yours. Whether or not they act like it, they’re adults, and they’re making a choice to do this over and over.
If you can, find somewhere else to study (like a library, cafe, friends house, whatever). Just get out of the house as much as you can, make yourself unavailable, find other things to think about.
I hope things will get better for you 💜
