My mother regularly beat me, yelled at me and told me she wished I'd been aborted. Noone believed me because to outsiders she was the perfect housewive, always smiling, always friendly and happy. My friends and teachers only told me how lucky I was to have such a nice and caring mother and that I shouldn't tell lies about her.
Luckily, my husband believes me but he's never met her since I went no contact years ago. But while I was still living with my parents noone ever believed me.
Lol my mom told me she regretted giving birth to me because I expressed suicidal thoughts.
I came from a "communist" country where there was a strict birth control policy because of thr fears of overpopulation, I was the second child my mother illegally gave birth to. So she said because she broke the law to have me and had to pay huge fines, that I owe her or something. And even my grandmother said I owe my mom for risking legal punishment to give birth to me. And that suicide is cowardly and disrespectful/ungrateful for her "sacrifices" and if she had known about my thoughts, she wouldn't have "wasted so much resources" on me.
Bro, I really wanna be that type of dipshit kid and say: "well if you have me so much, then maybe the party should've forcibly sterilized you before you gave birth to me", but I just ended up crying and have an existential crisis, my birth wasn't even supposed to happen, the fucking government literally hated my existence anyways, rejected my existence, I'm just another anomaly, born only out of sheer luck, the card were never really stacked in my favor to begin with. I think all the bad luck I'm getting might be just nature trying to course correct, to get rid of me, the anamaly.
That was a terrible thing for your mother to say, never mind even think. You're not an anomaly, and you don't deserve to feel that way.
I hope things get better for you.
People can be idiots and not realize that social behavior can be a mask. Always smiling, well, thats hiding and acting.
I’m in pretty much the same boat. I went here to type pretty much all these words.
Do you think your leaving has made some people wonder that there might be something to it?
I don't know. She's been painting me as the bad, unruly child that has something wrong with her since kindergarden, so I guess it would be easy for her to make it sound like I just lost my mind and shes the victim. Those who believed her will keep believing her.
