Re: Sleeping too much

Hi guys, sorry, had to chill a bit, what upset me was a bad tx from brothers in response to this message i sent them after mum told me dad had a fall today: "Dad had a fall taking the bin down the driveway, I'm disgusted nobody has stepped up to doing that job for them, how hard is it to time a visit in with garbage night?? crapola!"
Bro4 sent this reply:
"want a punch up the c_nt? pull ya head in!"
My Bro2 sent this:
"Disgusted! Stupid cow! while K.... [me Tawney / big sister] is in a better position than us to help, being a trained nurse & Jesus freak, she won't move back to Sydney & help. Maybe she could pray harder to Jesus to convince our parents to surrender to there circumstances? They can ring me. I'm tired of mothers psychological narcissistic ways, she still tells me to "go wank y'self" "take a shit pill" or "Fk off!" ... ... Mind your own business K....! And what of the other two unemployed sons who also live close? - must be on parent funded leave or so.... K.... perplexes me no end with her disrespectful shallow childish understanding of these people with there complicated secretive ways. Its there choice to be independent. Yes the very child dad praised the most gobbs off the loudest. An empty drum makes the loudest noise. Somebody please remind K.... of the facts"

I don't know how to take them anymore. I feel played by mum & misunderstood by my siblings & forgotten by dad. It hurts my thymus, aches. But don't worry, I've been here before & know the way out.

Sorry but Haven't caught up on the last 27 posts yet. Just know you care (thanks) and don't want you to worry. I'll figure it out.

Found a new comfort food - whipped fresh cream with cream biscuits - yum.

Oh @Former-Member. Time to let go of this. It brings nothing but pain for you. Don't forget how well you've been going when you don't have to deal with this stuff. Please make sure you do the self compassion things ( double cream biscuits sounds like a plan by the way) thinking of you and sending heaps of hugs 💜💜💜💐💐💐

Re: Sleeping too much

@Former-Member, thanks,CDO u think I'm overreacting? How do I not react? Do you know what I mean. They're not being fair I don't think, nor was my prompt to help too hash I would have thought. Wish I could figure out how yo block people on my phone. Is it me?

Re: Sleeping too much

@Former-Member..you are not over reacting. It's just plain upsetting. Sorry to hear you deal this.
Easy for us to say let them go, but I think with time you can drop parts away.
Slow road to success, & faking it till ya make it kinda stuff is what u need! ☺
Cream bickies most definitely as aids too. ❤

Re: Sleeping too much

No @Former-Member I don't think you are over reacting at all. I think you are reacting the way any human who cares would. I just think it's time to protect you. When is your next psychologist visit because I think this would be great to talk about in that appointment. Even copy and save this post. I hate the thought that your family can do this to you. It's just unfair and mean. I don't know but in a Russ Harris kind of way I think it's time to somehow unhook yourself from the harm they are doing to you. When you get to love and care you shine. We see it on here. At the moment it seems that trying to love and care for your family is causing you so much pain. I know you just wanted the best for your dad. I really don't have any real advice except that I think that you need to get some professional help so you can deal with this so you don't get taken down by it. 💜😊

Re: Sleeping too much

You're right @Former-Member, my next psych apt is 2wks. Not sure there's any quick fix, I already live 1200k away. Dont wanna feel alone in the world. Was their msg harsh? they're always telling me I'm too sensitive, too ovwrreactive, too thin skinned...

Re: Sleeping too much

Oh yes @Former-Member their messages were harsh. Very very harsh. Right now however I would journal this somewhere so that you will be able to give it to your psychologist or talk using it as a prompt. Two weeks is a long time to remember this but you need to deal with it and find a way to live true to you. As soon as you've written it down then do lots of self care and pampering. Try not to worry until you've seen your psychologist. Then hopefully you won't have to worry because you may have some strategies to better deal with it. @Former-Member this is really hard and hurtful but you can get passed this and find peace. Thinking of you heaps💜💐

Re: Sleeping too much

@Former-Member. Wow they were harsh words they said to you. I agree with @Former-Member. Your reaction is how a reasonable person would react.
I have to say - your siblings are not rational or caring. Is it worth your energy to keep in contact with them? It sounds like they cause more pain than anything positive.
I'm sorry that you have had their responses. I hope there is a way to put this to the side - until your next psychologist appointment.
Sending hugs ♥♥

Hi @Former-Member ..... ❤️🌹

I'm making my way back through the posts of the day .....

Yeah ,... that was really harsh .... and you don't have to "wear" it ..... don't put it on you .... you have a choice .... take it off you, as if it were a really ugly piece of clothing that doesn't even fit properly .... visualise it like that .... the walk across the room and mentally drop it into the bin !!!!

Not for you Hon ❣

Then take all the loving care from your Forumite friends here, and put that on instead ......

💜👚❤️💋💗👛💚👗💛👑💙👖..... ❣

Lots of gorgeous things to "wear" over here ..... 😘

Dearest @Former-Member

Golly, it's like domestic abuse how your brother's treat you. Did you know that if they can't treat their own sister well, they will never treat women well.

But this is not going to help you right now.

I suggest that you write down/ record the texts: who else suggested this?

You are not too thin skinned. You are a woman. WOMAN. EVen your profile picture that you chose is Feminine.

I was wondering why you chose such a girly profile picture and now I know.

How to rise above Sibling rivalry. Yes, I need to learn this too.

Does anyone have any ideas??

@Former-Member maybe you can just stay where you are have no contact with your brothers or parents. They are abusive and they will never ever change.

You though have.

Darling lady. One little step a day will keep you safe from their nasty in ness.
