So sorry to here about your situation. My parents were great but SO wasn't (another story).

Anyway I just wanted to say keep the communication lines open, you be the one that is calm, but strong. Love should be unconditional. Binding, no, no, not on developing breasts.

Also, I think people worry about what others will think of them having a Trans kid, a kind of reflection on how they have brought you up. My mum said when I first went home as the real me to wear a male shirt so others wouldn't see me going into the house, I didn't and things were fine.

Hope things iron out ok in the coming months/years.

hugs

I'm trying to be myself. Its just really overwhelmingly hard cause I ripped myself apart to find out what was at the core. Now I'm rebuilding by I'm weak, and young, and deformed.

I feel the same way and I'm 28. I'm sorry your family doesn't do unconditional love dear--we need it more than anyone! Just remember--it takes strength to be as weak as you are right now. You'll make it. You'll make it. You'll make it. I promise.

But she calls. Most of the time I let the machine get it. She says, "I love you" just as if she actually knew the meaning of the word.

It's a thorn in my heart, the family stuff.

:\ Thanks...

I'm almost considering not even considering myself a part of the family anymore...

Its making me into this cold and horrible person, and I almost wish I could live in denial about my family and elsewhere so I don't deal with them all the time...

At least I'm moving soon...

Doesn't it almost make you wish they wouldn't talk about love at all?  It just makes it worse when they talk about how they love you and you can always come to them with a problem, when you know that they'll refuse you...

YES.  >:(

Yeah, it would be nice, but you're just considering it and already feeling the hole it leaves in you. I cut my family out for 18 months once.... miserable the entire time. It's sick but I'd rather figure out how to brush off the bull->-bleeped-<- than be without them. Too bad there are all these questions I can't answer cos I'm too scared to tell them yet...

The biggest thing cut out is trust. I can't put faith in any of them anymore. To do so would be totally self destructive, and thats why I hate this.


I don't trust my mom cause she's a violent, hormonally-ruled person, who was already crazy and then got worse when my dad had a manic episode.

I don't trust dad cause he spent a ton of money that could have been for me and my brothers college.

I don't trust my brother, cause I was cleaning the upstairs room one day and he came up and randomly started punching the back of my head, cause I, "made mom cry," even though 2 minutes earlier, I was the one who got a binder thrown at the back of my head. Now I can admit... I'm MEAN when I have to be, but I never cross the line like these people do and hurt people physically, EVER.

I've fought with my brother before, but its never been anything but wrestles up to this point, and I've sincerely wanted to break my dads nose to wake him up from his spending spree and affair with a woman (who has a family... And sees no consequence in doing my dad while having a daughter who's apparently, "just like me," and a husband who'll be crushed when they ALL find out. He cheated on my mom... He cheated. He could have just divorced her if he didn't love her for that long, instead of crushing my mom and making her EVEN CRAZIER, but no... That sometimes makes getting financial aid for college BETTER. So basically... They're legally together... And arguing over stuff because they are both too stupid to find a solution, and they've been on earth almost 3X as long as me.

...
But back to the point. My mom has no control. Shes almost poked my eye with her fingernail, kicked me literally out the door, punched me, slapped me, dumped water on me, food on me, broke a glass close to my head when I was still recovering from waking up to the food thing after a court date... She's threatened my life in our crappy little car while disowning me and saying she'd kill herself, and telling me I was mourning my friend wrong....

And I'm always seen as the worse person. Lately I just can't control myself either. Do I hit her? No. But I call her a sadist amongst other swear words, cause she is one, and she is making me become her, and I HATE IT. Her hatred is seeping into me like a disease and my bad side is coming out again... I move in a few days... I just need to survive til then, and find a job the best I can.


But the point is, is that I've never hit her. I pushed her away when she was, but I've never HIT her. NEVER. Not once. Even when it meant defending myself and stopping her crap, I've never hit her. Cause she's my mom? No... Its cause its a person, and thats wrong to me. I don't know how she has it in her to hit people. If she were a guy she would have been arrested. She isn't really causing the most physical pain... Its the symbolism of it. So yeah... I don't trust my family.


I don't think I'll ever have faith in them again. Its not a matter of love to me, even though that hurts a ton, its surviving so I can escape this crap.

ugh i hate therapists that are a waste of time and money. I spent 6 months with one recently...

what about seeing one specifically for your abuse issues that doesn't know you're trans? Would that even work?
  •  

deviousxen

I don't know what they'd do for abuse issues to be quite honest. The majority of problems in my life are too riddled with catch 22s to have a straightforward answer. In fact... The only straightforward answer was, "You're a transsexual you dumbass," but that also made more complexities obviously.

Nothing is fair to fix except my physical issue, and its not entirely appealing either... Cause its scary.

My social issues between people I love and me kill me though. The abuse thing only makes me think the nuclear family is exactly that.. Nuclear... And subject to vaporizing little doves that try flying away...

not all families are like that though. Mine was, mind you... and i've had tons of therapy over it. I'm mostly ok now but i get paranoid easy.

I can see in your situation that trying to report your family as physically abusive  would be riddled with catch 22's and a very bumpy road.

Personally I dont think I would, but Im not giving advice here.

If the pain of it all becomes greater than what you would lose by doing so than I would say throw in the towel, but if its not something tells me you are a strong hearted person who will take it and deal with it.

One day it will all be behind you devious, and on that day I hope you find the peace you are searching for.

It's not like you're any different. You are the same person you were before all this became an issue to her. Why can't she see that?

deviousxen

I was still treated badly before all of this. I admit though, it takes two, and I've said my fair share of nasty stuff back to her, but I've never crossed that line and DISOWNED her. Not until recently cause I hate it now.
