Did any of you grow up with toxic parents and siblings?

I grew up with a toxic dad. We don't talk anymore. The last time we talked was when I was in the hospital after giving birth to his grandson.

My dad is a materialistic man & accused me of not being his kid & told me my "real dad" was dead, drowned in lake Erie. DNA test comes back that the dead man isn't my dad, but the asshole who ostracized me from his side of the family is. He then went on to tell me thaty mories of events were drug induced... I stopped trying to make the relationship work when he told me he would buy me a house if I stopped communicating with my mother, whom I'm SUPER close with

Yikes! Wow some parents smh

My dad was extremely toxic especially as I got older. He would follow me to school and everyday when I got my car even though he hated driving me to school. He constantly criticizes me, and tells me I'm a failure and not the kind of daughter he wanted. Has said he wished I was dead numerous times. There's more but we'll stop right here before I start having a mental episode. With my mom she raised me all by herself, but sometimes I had to walk around eggshells cause anything set my mom off

[Asker]

Wow, I’m sorry that sucks :/

[MysticDevice]

Entirely. I was the black sheep. Didn't think or function on a wavelength anywhere near what my family does. They kept telling me something was wrong with me and kept trying to put me on A. D. D. meds and "special learning" classes. And every time the teachers said there was no need. That back and forth kept pissing me off for a very, very long time.

[Asker]

Same I’m the black too :/

[Friendlybro79]

Yes. My Dad (I can't diagnose him clearly), in my opinion, with speaking with experts and even a friend who is one too, that has met my Dad, said he could very well be a narcissist. He was extremely manipulative and really did a number on me and my siblings.

[Asker]

Mine is too, he’s a bad apple

I grew up with toxic parents and I think I can be mentally uninvolved in a lot of social situations because I was raised with parents who never celebrated me or smiled with me.

[Asker]

I’m sorry are you still in contact with them?

[Anonymous]

Yes, all of them.

I left them behind, packed my stuff (i was living alone by then) and moved to Germany. I didn't tell them i have moved and i won't tell them. These losers can be toxic to each other without me.

[Asker]

I feel like doing the same

[Mynameisbobby]

Yes my mother and sister were both very toxic they blamed me for everything!

[Asker]

It’s usually them who are the bad ones

[Mynameisbobby]

You're right!

[AmeeliahLeh]

Yes, my step-mom is pretty toxic to me and somewhat abusive, and due to me still growing up I still live with her.

[Asker]

Oh I’m sorry, is your dad still alive?

[AmeeliahLeh]

I'm not really sure, He left when I was little

[LilyByte]

luckily for me no, everyone in my family pretty chill
