I’m gonna tell you, when I moved out of my house I have literally never felt better mentally- it’s still hard and it hurts sometimes but remember that it’s your life and no one’s else’s no one else can make the choice for you they don’t have to live with it you can build new family new support systems that will be beautiful and filled with the kind of love you need fr

Yes it does :) you will make progress I have to constantly remind myself compared to 2 years ago I am soooo much better yk don’t compare yourself to other people compare yourself to your past even decided to cut them off is progress in the right direction I mean you can’t solve the problem if you’re in the environment that caused it

i feel so much like a burden because ive been kinda ruminating on it for the last week or so and talking to my friends abt it. i wish i had other people who understood but for some reason all of my friends have parents they dont hate. it feels odd they dont understand.

Do you have access to therapy? You can also look for therapy offices that offer financial aid if you don’t have insurance or shitty insurance I find that talking to a professional who can just tell you what’s like your feelings V something your family gaslit you abt I think it’s perfectly fine to think abt it for a while it’s a big decision you can always dm if you need to talk fr
