My dad has bd, and some other shit but he’s recently been more and more verbally aggressive. I pretty much am going to talk to him over break and tell him he needs to get help or I’m never coming home. Does anyone have any advice on how to do this?

My dad is similar (idk if it’s bd but it’s something) and a few weeks ago I told my mom that I’m going to go no contact if he doesn’t go to therapy at the bare minimum cause he acts like it in public too and will get into arguments with people over nothing and unfortunately my brother is the same as him (but milder though). Anyways I would say have a phone call if you can’t do it in person and have it with your mom and him on the phone. It would be better if you could do it in person cause

I don’t want to leave my mom or my brothers but I cannot take how he treats me. I have severe confrontation issues and I now cannot handle confrontation as an adult at all because I assume the person I’m confronting will scream and me. It makes it hard for friendships and impossible to be in a relationship. I realize now I won’t get better unless I fix the source.

This is what I plan to say to him. I just have no clue when. If I do it this week and it explodes in my face I have to go back to school early or get a hotel

Physically seeing you leave is a more lasting impression than a phone call but do what you are most comfortable with. Be sure to lay out what he has done, how it affects you individually as well as how it affects others around you, what you want him to do, and what will happen if he doesn’t get treatment. With my dad honestly I think it’s a lost cause cause my mom said he’d never do it but hopefully it’ll go better for you

Since he’s so bipolar it makes it so difficult to have these conversations. Some days I love him so much, but when he’s throwing his food across the room because the delivery took away and the food was cold I just can’t take it. I’m currently home right now for school and I’m thinking of having this conversation the last week I’m here

Yeah I mean honestly as shitty as it sounds I’d have it right before you’re about to leave (like within hours of you leaving) cause then you say what you need to say and then if he starts throwing a fit you can just leave and don’t have to deal with it

That’s what I was thinking. To pack up and have a conversation when I’m ready to leave

That’s perfectly said, honestly it’s so weird cause our situations are identical however I don’t plan to contact either of my parents but it’s mainly cause my mother lets him get away with it and hasn’t pushed to have him get back on his meds, see a therapist, or change psychologists

My mom is so strong, she pushes him constantly
