My parents want me to take care of them if I ever get better from my mental illness and I am DEFINITELY not gonna do that

My dad told me he doesn’t want to keep me and they are very hypocritical. When I was staying by a hotel because I didn’t want to stay home, he cursed me out so nasty. The other day I kind of talked to him aggressively and when he talks to me that way, he thinks it’s okay. They want me to respect them but they don’t do the same thing back. I rather have a mental illness for the rest of my life than to take care of my parents. I was in and out of mental hospitals and they didn’t even send me clothes in the hospital or come to visitation. What makes you think I should take care of them because I won’t. I deserve to be out living my most best life. My parents have called me disgusting and nasty. Sometimes I would be happy if they seeked mental help themselves because my mom literally sweared that I will get everything I want and I don’t know if that will come true. They don’t make enough effort to help me and then they said I don’t listen to them but they won’t listen to me either. They don’t want to do family therapy. The environment isn’t toxic or abusive. My parents are just messed up. Please don’t comment telling me to take care of my parents or tell them how I feel because I have tried talking them and they won’t listen so I really don’t want to engage in that conversation again. I have been in a mental hospital more than 10 times and I am sure they wouldn’t mind putting me back there if they had enough money so I am not gonna do anything for them. They don’t deserve anything from me. My dad literally told me he doesn’t give a shit about me and nobody does. And you know when he feels like he is running nuts next time, maybe a mental evaluation would be good for both of my parents at old age lol

The Kardashians, why I am against them and the people who follow them

There was this girl in my middle school who was suppose to be my friend and she was always nice to my face and I caught her flirting with the guy I had a crush on. Few years later in the future, she is following Kim Kardashian and she has butt implants/lip injections. What a horrible example these sluts give to humanity. #CheckInWithMe #CheerMeOn #Disability #MentalHealth #BipolarDepression #Bipolar2 #Bipolar1 #BipolarDisorder #Psychosis #ADHD #SchizoaffectiveDisorder #Schizophrenia #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder #ComplexPosttraumaticStressDisorder #PostTraumaticStressDisorder #PTSD #Suicide #Selfharm #TraumaticBrainInjury #Trauma #Anxiety #Manic #PanicAttacks #PanicDisorder #PanicAttack

Hi, my name is SpringTulip281436. I'm here because I recently experienced a TBI due to an aneurysm. I'm blessed and thankful to be alive. There is more work that God has for me to do; and my answer is "yes, Lord.." I would like to connect with others who are on this journey to recovery, as this is totally new and unfamiliar. I appreciate the community that this forum brings. Thank you for having me. ~Blessings

Hi, my name is Tawnya101. I'm here because on January 17th of this year (2025) I was in a bad accident that sent me flying through a windshield and leaving me with a terrible TBI. I. seeing 3 different therapists three times a week and am still toing tests and treatments that my Neurologist orders. Its been difficult to navigate this process and the unknown though I have been able to keep a positive attitude that someday I'll improve enough to have a more normal life. I would love to be a part of a community that knows what its like to go through medical challenges that alter our lives.

If I keep going there, I won't return to the way I'd prefer. He set me up today, Valentines of all days. If it closes, I will Never see him again and I realized that tonight. I felt it all over again, like three years prior.
I told about the phone call and was met with duh, nothing.They know,I know.And I remember daily.
I don't understand how someone can just say I'm not going to care for you anymore.

I got sick from a brain bleed, a tbi from a rare Cerebral AVM.
I loss it, my life.When I realized who I was, the damage, was done.Now, I'd rather a stranger look after my affairs.Thats messed up to me.They found someone, took two years setting me up, to fail, to struggle.To phase me out but I'm supposed to be grateful and compliant.I was lead to believe I had support.I was being given opportunities and should be grateful and not question anything.But Im to do it alone because they feel I should beable to.I have had zero privacy and zero emotional support. When, I have any qualities of life,they question that, I cannot possibly have a disability.I have never been this confused by the people around me. I have watched their masks fall.I am still navigating social cues and my reactions and my Own control.To be told I was to show him how and teach myself.I can no longer be in this environment.His family,is his.The house, his.The vehicles, his.ALL, his,phones, his mothers but I'm told I have the control issues.She has control issues.And I will no longer have my life controlled by her.I don't care what she gave her son.I never agreed to her holding it over my head twelve years later.They have put a price on my health and the terms of my marriage since recieved my Disability.Im going to be alone and that is fine, I just never thought he'd choose, his mother.Hed rather shame me than have them know the truth.He never believed me and he knew he wasn't going to learn or try.it is that he let me think that I was confused, I questioned my reality for over a year.That, I can't get over right now.Any of them involved.

I wonder if the person who is conducting the orchestra realizes, this player, plays her own song. I have been munipulated, beyond anything I could have imagined.Three years,in the works.I keep track of events and time.A timeline of behaviors and truths.If someone goes outside that, I feel it,immediately.The closest to me, decided to run a game on me, to teach me a lesson.it is wrong, to do that to someone who already has a disability, questions everyone's motives and is alone.I give everyone the benefit of doubt,when they cross me.Lately, I took a step back and took a long hard look at my circle of support.it was my son.That was it.I have been catfished, by multiple posing as friends accounts, of my husbands.I replied to every requests, heard nothing looked up their accounts and they were fake.All in two years, multiple people telling me I'm not online,when I thought I was.Im exhausted from this game of theirs.I am drained and will never understand how adults, cannot use, their words anymore. Text it.Tired of technology and fake relationships.
