I think I have ptsd from m parents literally constant arguments, putting me in the middle, and telling me insane shit no eight year old should know about like how a neighbor girl I play with is being molested. I doubt it was true my mom just thought her uncle was weird whatever that means. I already cut my family off my older brother is a meth addicts and my younger brother hung himself three years ago and my parents are living in separate houses but still are trying to get me to move back in because my mom doesn’t want to die alone and act as her second husband and my dad wants a lightning rod to deal with her. Is there anyway to recover for me or am I fucked for life? I don’t even feel alive I’m just going through the motions.
>>35066352I think there is trauma from more than just the arguments. Have you tried DBT or gotten assessed for C-PTSD? And if therapy isn’t for you are there things that just make you feel neutral that just distract you for a while to help cut you out of the rumination? I tried meds as a last resort and it was really the only thing that calmed everything down enough to practice distress tolerance and make me feel the same as I did before shitty things happened to me but I recommend non invasive stuff first.

>>35066352So, you didn't actually cut them off.
>>35066352Forgive. That’s how you recover. Forgive your brother for killing himself. Forgive your parents for mistreating you. Forgive your other brother for being a meth addict and start being there for him. I wish I had a brother. Even one that did drugs. If he needs somewhere to stay let him stay with you. If he steals from you so what. Get over it, it’s your brother. And if you’re not a lame he shouldn’t have to steal. If he needs money to get high so he doesn’t have to steal then give it to him. Show him that you aren’t gonna give up on him or get mad at him. That you are in his corner and when he truly realizes that he will get clean and probably won’t even wanna do drugs anymore. Go home to your parents and help them. Be a family while you still can. Because if any of them die, you’re gonna wish you did. Don’t hang on to resentment bro. It only hurts you, not them. And if you don’t agree with this then just ignore me.
