#Alcoholic father

[toomuchdivergentformyneuro]

i feel like there’s a lot of pity and shame about having divorced parents. like people will say they’re sorry and shit like that, and like, okay, i get it, you don’t know what’s going on with that, but also at the same time, i always get so angry and shit like that.

like no, it’s not something to be sorry about that. this was NEEDED. it’s a GOOD thing they’re divorced.

so, this goes out to the kids with divorced parents who are sick and tired of getting pitying looks, non-understanding sympathizers, and other shit like that, and are fucking grateful and happy that they have divorced parents.

yall are valid and not cruel for hating the parent that left. yall are valid and not cruel for not missing all the goddamn fights every day. yall are valid and not cruel for being happy that you don’t have to live in constant fight-or-flight anymore. yall are valid and not cruel for being so grateful that they got divorced and now you can live a lot more easily. yall are valid and not cruel that you’re happy the bad parent left and now you can grow your bond with the good one some more finally. yall are valid and not cruel for having a bucket load of anger and hate towards the one that left. yall are valid and not cruel for not regretting they left or not missing them at all. yall are valid and not cruel whatsoever.

and i’m proud of yall. yall are doing a damn good job. and your feelings are entirely valid. <3

I wish I didn't give a shit about my alcoholic father.

[forgotten-calf-guided-home]

being a daughter to an alcoholic father is such a draining experience. like, of course i love you, you’re all i’ve ever known, we have the same nose and the same familial trauma and how can you not feel connected to someone who made you who you are? but i also hate you, you were never there when you should’ve been, and we both know you hate your nose and you hate your family and how could i ever love someone who made me this way?

*he gets angry and threatens to hit me*

I guess some things never change even if I'm an grown ass adult now...

Hey

Hey Andy, could you please come pick me up?

My dad is acting crazy and his mood is so contagious

I need to get out of this house, I do

I can't sink back I've been doing so much better

He sits imposing at the table and he slurps his beer from an oversized mug and he stares you down with his cold eyes and his crooked smile.

And he waits.

He waits to hear something he can get angry over.

He waits to punish you for oxymorons

He sits in the warm light, fists resting on that slimy table

And he has a way of making you feel like everything unholy is your fault

And those eyes eat at you, and they appear to you in dreams

And in darkness

And in the drippy puddle at the shower drain

They convince you they can see into your soul,

That you don't know yourself,

That they've uncovered a knowingly hid evil

And one day you clean out the stale beer in the sink and you don't see his eyes anymore,

You see your own

And you stare them down the drain until they're washed away by your tears

So Andy, can you pretty please come pick me up?

The Whale and My Father

I don’t own any social media accounts and I don’t really stream TV so I am often a month or two behind on current events and new movie releases. It was about a month ago that I learned about Brendan Fraser’s comeback in The Whale, released December 2022. When I heard that the movie was about a 600-lb disabled father trying to reconnect with his estranged daughter, I knew that it would emotionally…

My father said he will go to sleep on the new year and won't celebrate it and I don't believe him a single thing because now he sent me a flower pot with little plants he is growing in child room and he sends me silly stuff only when he is drunk as hell

Guest Post: Follow My Journey by Jea Ward

Dear Jim, It’s taken me a long time to get around to writing this letter. I’ve been putting it off for years, to be honest, I suppose that I was waiting for you to get in touch with me. I’m writing because I have questions. I have complaints. People like to say that you can’t miss something that you’ve never had, but that’s a lie. I’ve never had you in my life like you should have been all these…
